A Happier Life
Posted by John Doolan, Product Manager @ Memeo
If you’re like me you have a number of friends and family who are unhappy with you. Not because you are a bad person or you owe them money, but because you haven’t shared the latest photos and videos of your kids with them. Please don’t misunderstand me, I love my kids dearly and I am constantly taking photos and videos of them with my camera and iPhone. However, I really dislike going through the process of emailing them to everyone…resizing, attaching, and having to send multiple emails because my service provider limits the size of my attachments. I’ve tried various photo sharing and social networking sites but my friends and family still would like to receive the full resolution content…now I can make everyone happy.
As the Product Manager for Memeo Share I was excited to help develop our latest solution, Memeo Share 2.0! Now I can share all of my videos and photos by simply dragging and dropping. My friends and family instantly receive them right on their desktop and can immediately view them in the new, integrated viewing gallery. They can also tag, rate and comment directly within the application so now we all can exchange our thoughts without having to clutter up everyone’s email boxes. An incredible side benefit of Memeo Share is that a full resolution version of my videos and photos are backed up in the cloud. If my computer gets stolen or crashes I can quickly get all of my full resolution content back. I can recreate most of my files on my computer, but I can’t recreate the moments I’ve captured in photos and videos.
It’s a great relief to know my memories are safe with Memeo Share. Thanks to Memeo Share 2.0 my relationships are much improved and I can sleep easy at night knowing my memories are secure.

A New Beginning
Posted by George Northup: President, Memeo
I’m very excited to have recently arrived as the latest addition to Memeo’s management team in the role of President. Previously, I helped build four early stage software/service companies and took them all the way to IPO or exit. In the process, these companies generated in excess of $1 billion of cumulative revenues. I particularly relish the challenge and thrill of helping to take a promising, exciting company to the next level – and through the stratosphere. Also, I have a specific desire to be involved in products that have profound impact on our daily lives.
After successfully selling my last company in 2008, I took some time off to relax with my family and travel internationally. Plus, I used my time off to think about the next venture that I might pursue. In particular, I thought a lot about evolving consumer lifestyles and trends. Although I was increasingly approached by various companies about different opportunities, I kept hearing about an amazing company called Memeo. Through mutual acquaintances, I knew of founder/CEO Hong Bui, a brilliant visionary with prior successful executive stints at both Amazon and Apple. Eventually, Hong and I met in late 2008 and our initial conversation together triggered my enthusiasm about Hong’s vision to “Simplifying Your Digital Life.”
More than ever, individuals consume an exponentially greater mass of digital products and services. We are bombarded with rapidly expanding content availability consisting of photos, music, movies, videos, as well as the more “traditional “ content involving productivity files (PowerPoint, PDF, Excel, Word, etc.). Simultaneously, individuals use a widening range of digital devices, including multiple desktops and laptops, iPODs, digital cameras, handheld video devices, and mobile phones to access data.
We all want to access and experience the increasing content (whether it be family photos, music, videos…) and we want to sample or share the content through any device of our choosing. But how to deal with all this voluminous content, how to protect valuable files, how to access between different devices? In short, how to manage all this digital media? Managing digital media and all the various devices becomes a daunting task – in fact a huge potential headache and time drain.
This is where Memeo comes in. Memeo’s LifeAgent® Platform is a suite of digital media management software that simplifies everything so you can enjoy your content instead of worrying about administrating and managing it. Memeo provides an elegant platform to easily back up, sync, and share files across multiple devices and users. Most importantly, despite very sophisticated underpinnings to the platform (all under the hood), Memeo’s products are powerful, simple, intuitive, and easy to use. After using the products, it becomes effortless to manage your digital media and, in fact, you wonder how you managed before. It’s no accident that over 20 million users in 150 countries (and in 10 languages) have downloaded Memeo products.
In short, I believe that Memeo helps people manage their digital lives better as we will continue to see more and more explosive growth in yet to be imagined content and devices. I am passionate about Memeo and its mission to simplify digital life, and so I’m excited to be on this journey with Hong and his team.
