Bablrr

A collaboration with visual/IX designer Ally Reeves, Bablrr is inspired by our love of keeping it sneaky: in the past decade we’ve seen some amazing subversions of basic social networking tools like twitter, facebook and simple text messaging. We’d like to help people keep their quick texts under wraps when it comes to being monitored on anything other than a basic human scale.

Bablrr provides a simple interface to share non-monetizable messages in social networking sites while drawing attention to issues concerning our digital public lives and the involuntary commercialization of our data.
