Photo sharing websites

Photo sharing sites - including Flickr, Picasa and Zooomr

Well, somewhere along the line I’m sure you would want to share your pictures and videos with your friends and loved ones. These days you have lots of choices. Today I will list a few and over time I will start to rate these sites. I use Apple’s .Mac service. You can quickly and easily share pictures and videos using iWeb/web galleries. Using a Mac it’s easy to set up and share your pictures. Check out this beautiful web gallery.

I also use Google’s Picasa service. Most of these services give you a sizable amount of free storage and then you can buy additional storage.

What service do you use? Please rate it for us in your comment!

Here is a list of the more popular sites:

  • Flickr.com - One of the most used and popular sites. Now part of Yahoo! You can open a free account or a Pro account, see Flickr pricing info.
  • Picasa - Now part of Google. Also very popular. I use this service. 1GB of storage is free, then $20 per year for 10GB, etc. You can find the Google Picasa pricing info here if you have a Google account.
  • Zooomr - Free account with unlimited storage and uploads. Pro account without ads is $19.95 per year.
  • Smugmug - Looks a lot like Apple’s web galleries. The site is easy to navigate and the pages are beautiful. Fee-based starting @ $39.95 per year.
  • Apple’s .Mac - You need a Mac. Pricing starts at $99.95 per year for 10GB of storage. This is much more than a photo sharing service.

There are many more sites and in the future I will list more sites and review each of one in depth.
