#1932 Meet the entrepreneur who got the GIF keyboard on your iPhone

Startup Stories - Mixergy - A podcast by Andrew Warner - Fridays

One of the things that today’s guests noticed was how people were communicating visually with the introduction of the iPhone. I’m talking about GIFs. Well, today’s guest said, “This is a new way for people to express themselves.” And he created a company whose goal is to enable us to use gifs to express ourselves on the platforms that we love. His name is David McIntosh and the company he created was Tenor. He eventually sold the GIF search engine and database to Google. I invited him here to talk about how we did it.

David McIntosh is the CEO and founder of Tenor which is an online GIF search engine and database which was sold to Google.
