16 year old developer. I've been making websites and iOS apps for about 5 years now, and its safe to say that making cool things is my most profound passion.

Thanks! I used parse.com for the back end, the front ends all me.

Thanks! And just you wait, a few years from now, you'll be addicted to Look, sending all your colleagues links to cool hacker articles and funny youtube videos :-)

Well, when you say "link" sharing, its really more than that; Look focuses on sharing links and viewing them/talking about them in-app and then holding onto those cool links forever. Usually in a messaging app, the link/pic starts a discussion and is lost in the long string of messages (and text messaging had annoying notifications from every recipient of the text.)

And yeah I'd love to join, I'll send you an email.

This is why I need Y Combinator. Because I know there are features I can add/subtract from the current app. However my vision is and always will be in tact: share cool things and talk about them.

Thank you Alex, really appreciate the feedback.

well, you gotta try the app to see its potential. Why do so many people use snapchat when you can send pics to friends already through imessage/whatsapp? Because of the interface.

Look simplifies the process of sharing links, pictures, and apps and focuses on sharing cool things, not starting discussions.
