Chances are you've come across something and had a question or two, whether is was a type of fish or river. A new social network is aimed at helping you answer that question, with the help of other users.'Jelly' is the newest social networking venture to hit smartphones. But it's a little different, it all starts with a photo.Here's how it works: You snap a photo of something, then upload it to the network with your question. Then you wait, wait for someone to answer you.You must connect through another social network, right now that's only Facebook and Twitter. Then it automatically links all of your friends and friends of friends.It's built up quite the user base with folks like Bono and Al Gore.Jelly's goal is to find users answers to their questions in real time by crowdsourcing opinions from their social networks. You can even search through users to help answer some other questions.Twitter co-founder Biz Stone said: Jelly changes how we find answers because it uses pictures and people in our social networks... It turns out that getting answers from people is very different from retrieving information with algorithms.Jelly is available for Android and iOS users.CLICK HERE for more information.
