Inside a cramped conference room at Toronto’s Mars Discovery Centre, angel investors listened closely as Nussar Ahmad pitched the future of the Internet.

Using code supplied by Facebook, Ahmad’s software can take pictures snapped on a camera phone and instantly send them to a Facebook profile page.
