PictureSync: Share Your Photos with the World!
Posted by Greg Healy on 08/31/07 in Graphics, Home & Personal, Organization, Productivity, Utilities, Web
Photography is an avid hobby of mine, and I am sure it is a hobby of many of you readers. When I take a picture that I feel is worth showing to other people, I usually upload it to Flickr. I mostly use Flickr for more creative shots, like landscapes and sunsets, vs. events like birthdays and family get-togethers.
When I want to share the latter, I use Facebook. I am not a real avid user of Facebook, using it mostly for sharing pictures with family whos head would begin to spin if I tried to explain to them the concepts of using Flickr. The only problem I find with using two different services, is when I want to upload the same photo to both.
This isn’t really that big of a deal, but having to first login to Flickr, upload the photos, then have to login into Facebook and do the same, becomes a little irksome. On top of that, I use Photobucket to share little photos I’ve found on the internet quickly with friends. I like Photobucket because it automatically generates the URLs for Email and IM, HTML Code, Direct Link and IMG code. Getting a few photos onto all three of these services can become a little time consuming, that is until I was introduced to PictureSync.
PictureSync is an application that allows you to upload photos to multiple services. At the moment it supports 17 services such as Facebook, Flickr, Photobucket (funny how that worked out eh?) and Shutterfly. For a full list of services, check out PictureSync’s website.

You can add pictures from iPhoto, Lightroom, Aperture, the Finder and more. Once inside of PictureSync, you can add descriptions, keywords, ratings and more. Being able to upload pictures to multiple services to share with the world is something that has come in handy for me, and I am sure it will for you too.

For $15 you can use all of PictureSync’s features unrestricted. There is also a free version available. Purchase PictureSync here.
