History

Zooomr was created in 2005 by Kristopher Tate and Michael Van Veen of BlueBridge Technologies Group.[1][2]

On 19 June 2006 Thomas Hawk, a photographer and blogger from San Francisco, was recruited by Zooomr as its so called "Chief Evangelist." On 17 July 2006 Zooomr released Zooomr 2 which introduced SmartSets, improved geotagging of photos via TagMap, and many enhancements in speed, design and performance.[1] Features such as Notes and Portals were added to Zooomr[2] on 22 August 2006.

In 2012, the web site was updated for Zoomr's 7th anniversary, announcing an "official closed beta" of a new version of the site that would discard "older concepts that kept the previous version of Zooomr too technically deep from every day users". As of 1 March 2015, there has been no further visible update to the site.

As of August 2022, Zooomr now directs to an online gemstone store.
