My Fb feed has been thick with friends' updates of Socialcam viewing. 9 times out of 10 the still-image in the update is a revealing woman.

I give it two weeks to a month before most folks associate it with the same.

Reminds me of those pages where there is no content, but links to more results for the term you originally googled for. Just there to drive views and clicks, no original content.

I'm baffled at how they justify using these kind of tactics. A YC company no less…

WOW. so socialcam scrapes videos and then gets them into facebook - what a shame...
