Typeplace

Are you always snappin’ cool, crazy or funny photos with your phone? I do! In fact, I think we all do it on a daily basis. Whether for inspiration, memories or simply to make fun of some crazy lady and her outfit on facebook. (I’m talking about you lady in the vinyl pants at the supermarket) Well, if you are like me and enjoy using your phone camera, you will love this new app. Typeface is an app that allows users from all over the world to share beautiful typography they find, shoot and upload. See, I knew you would like it…

Typeplace allows you to view photographs of stunning typography from all around the world.

Users snap and upload the typography they find, then this piece of type and its location is viewable to the rest of the community. But hey that’s not all…

★

Depending on how many uploads you clock up, you get rewarded with cool stuff such as badges and unique certificates dispensed to leaders each month.

★

Using the iPhone camera or Photo Library – it’s as simple as snap, label and upload with the choice to post it to your Twitter stream.

With this, the application saves the location of the snap and plots it on a map viewable by everyone, where it can be upvoted.

★

You can view leaderboards and a map of the World plotting a random selection of Typeplaces and your current location so you can view any in your locale.

★

Your profile, which is handled by a simple login with your Twitter credentials, holds all your Typeplace related data as well as your ‘Trophy Cabinet” documenting your achievements.

★

Add friends on Typeplace so you can see what cool Typography they have been finding and what rank they’ve reached.

Typeplace is aimed at visual creatives with a passion for typography and want to have some fun along the way.
