"In the Studio" this week welcomes an entrepreneur who, while working for a major Hollywood celebrity, saw first-hand just how explosively engaging online images could be, an experience that provided him with the key insight into his current venture and why, even today, he has signs in the office that read "it's the photos, stupid" as a fun, constant reminder to keep focus on their mission to help turn online pictures into a dynamic business engine.Rey Flemings, the founder and CEO of San Francisco-based Stipple, couldn't have timed his venture more perfectly. Two of today's hottest consumer startups are all about, at their core, images. We all had some sense that pictures would provide one of the most attractive, thinnest edges of the wedge to create new networks, contexts, and experiences, and in a short period of time, both Instagram and Pinterest have, in their own ways, helped users create, enhance, share, and discover engaging images. If a picture is worth a thousand words, a successful photo-sharing startup is potentially worth half a billion dollars in private valuations, perhaps even more.
