Familiar with Superwall & Superpoke? Meet the SuperTagger
Tweet
It is actually OK that Facebook themselves are not supplying us with too many features on their own applications, because we'll probably going to see it coming from someone else anyway, and it's always interesting to see how far creativity goes. Let's take "Poke" for example: I really liked it at first, but after using the Super-Poke application, I never went back to plain poking. Same case with the Superwall application, it seems like people prefer to send friendly messages through there, instead of using the wall that comes as default in everyone accounts.
Speaking of which, there's a new Super-application that can definitely become more popular than the one we're using now. It's called SuperTagger (powered by pulver.com and partners), and it's allows you to tag anyone and anything in a photo. It can be a person, an object or a place. When you tag an object for example, SuperTagger then automatically gives you some relevant e-commerce results that you may or may not need. But here's the interesting part, by choosing one from the offered tags, you actually added an ad-tag to the photo and I wonder what will be the next level of this action. Revenue sharing maybe? Anyway, currently the owner of the application is not making any money off this e-commerce Mashup.
BTW, I'd like to know when someone add an ad-tag to my photo, other wise it can get out of hand.
The thing I liked most within this application, is that people can comment on each tag separately, which means that every photo can have multiply conversations.
Like every application on Facebook, the more users will use it, the more it will get better. If you're looking for something that goes beyond just tagging your friends, try SuperTag them.

I don't understand why people would want ads all over their pictures - why is it better than using regular tags? I find most of these applications just clutter up Facebook!
I understand what you're saying but I think that if the owner of the application will allow the photo owners to choose who tag them, and with what, it can actually work.
You guys should close this up by check referrer or something...

Sounds like an experiment in social advertising, and it's interesting to see.
I really liked the "tag-conversation" idea - but re. the ads part :( - I think it should be more restrictive - not only who tags me, but also allowing/disallowing ads, maybe filtering ads subjects, and of course as you mentioned - where's the money.
BTW- I wonder, who has the "rights" for the pictures/content I upload to FB (and other?)
I would see the value in something like this if it were capable of coming off facebook. I think about Yedda. When I first heard about it I was thinking Yedda was the stupidest thing because there already was "questions and answers" by "Slide". What I found out about Yedda that was great... was by getting kicked off facebook. I learned that the fact that Yedda wasn't necessarily loyal to the platform was an asset. To this day I love Yedda because it interfaces with TWITTER flawlessly. Yedda was behind the ball and yet ahead of the curve. Yes it is true the interface was poor with facebook. When I was forced off facebook I realized how fun it was to be @ TWITTER and have people hearing about my arguments and answers. What at first seemed to me to be an obvious "me too" application became so much more because Yedda was able to think outside of the facebook box. Something like Supertagger would be great if it interfaced with photobucket. My point in conclusion is that an unoriginal idea for an Application might find new life outside of facebook if it integrates with a different world that might take off like that Myspace/Google Open source OS
the focus is not on placing ads, its on allowing people to directly tag things other than 'people'. if there's a picture of me with a nie flat LCD panel in the back and i want to tag it, i can directly point to its amazon product page.
the first thing this does it give value to all my friends, because they can click the product and get to it's amazon's product page.
its not about 'hey buy this screen now' being written all over the app :-)
thanks ohad - i understand the use of the application now - and from some first hand experience.
It's a clever idea - the way you can tag a product then go to its page! However, tagging objects works just fine in normal tagging and no links are required.
I don't think its worth doing all of one's tagging through an application just to put a link alongside a tag. I did like the way you can comment on tags however!
looks great, but who's that ugly dude?
I'm honored, dear :)
That's a cute cat int the first picture ;-)
