The free Radar.net iPhone app, available now (iTunes link), almost perfectly matches the standard content sharing and viewing features of the Radar service, which currently boasts over 1 million subscribers and 15 million pictures served, with 70% of views coming from mobile phones.

Essentially users add friends whose photos and videos show up in an easy to follow timeline with comment and view counts. The iPhone app supports viewing friends' posts, viewing your posts with comments, and adding your own posts or comments to the fray.

As you might expect, Radar also offers integration with both Facebook and Twitter, so you can either tweet your Radar activity to your Twitter friends and/or have it show up in your Facebook News Feed. Plus, they're hoping to mix in FriendFeed integration in the future as well.

On the whole, Radar is to photos and videos as Twitter is text - quick, easy, and really interactive. With a sleek interface, and social activity hinging around photo and video comments, the iPhone app is a joy to tinker with. If more people I know friend me up, I could definitely see this work it's way into my social media repertoire.

Are you using Radar? Will you snatch up the iPhone app? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
