		<description><![CDATA[When it comes to sharing and storing your photos online, there are dozens of options. From well-known sites like Flickr to smaller sites like Fotki, it can be hard to wade through them all to find the perfect place to host your precious memories. There are a handful of questions you should consider before making a decision; privacy controls, the ability to print or download photos, storage space, and usage fees are just a few things to think about. With those questions in mind, we&#8217;ve gathered the best photo sharing websites in this handy comparison post to help you make your decision. The Big Photo Sharing Sites Flickr The largest photo-focused website, Flickr is generally accepted to be one of the best options. It&#8217;s free for casual users, though there are limitations, including only 300MB of uploads per month and the ability to display only the most recent 200 photos. Upgrading to a Pro account for $24.95 for one year, or $44.95 for two years, gets you unlimited storage and video uploads. Flickr lets users tag, caption, and set copyright permissions on photos, and organize them into collections and sets. Flickr also has a thriving community of photo enthusiasts, with groups and galleries galore to browse and enjoy, and easy-to-use apps for both iPhone and Android phones. Fees: none, premium account available Need account to view photos: no Privacy controls: public and private Download: smaller, resized images Included storage: up to 300MB per month Shutterfly One of the big benefits of Shutterfly is that there is no cost for unlimited photo storage. Instead, they make their money from prints and other customizable gifts such as mugs, mouse pads, and calendars. Users can create Share sites, which are secure personal web pages where you can share photos, videos, and more with family and friends. You can also order prints for in-store pickup at Walgreens and Target. Shutterfly has apps for the iPhone, iPad, and Roku. Fees: none Need account to view photos: yes Privacy controls: all photos are private Download: smaller, resized images Included storage: unlimited Photobucket A photo sharing site largely focused on<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=162143&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google Maps’ Street View is becoming less and less about photographing the road to grandma’s house and more about getting you off the road entirely. The tech giant&#8217;s latest project, unveiled today, takes mapping initiatives to new and extreme heights by offering interactive galleries of some of the world’s tallest mountains. The views include four famous peaks from across the globe: the snow-capped Everest Base Camp in Asia’s Himalayas, dormant volcano Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, Mount Elbrus in Europe and Aconcagua in Pope Francis’ home country of Argentina. Users can drop into various camps and viewing locations along the mountains to explore 360-degree panoramas and trace the paths of some mountains’ trails with just a few clicks. “It feels like you’re walking through the gates of hell because there are mule skeletons sticking out of the ground,” Dan Fredinburg, one of the Google team members who photographed all four peaks, says about his experience at Aconcagua. “It was this out-of-world experience of entering into an environment where not many people go and knowing we were going to bring back that experience for others to see.” (VIDEO: Google Street View Lets You Explore the Grand Canyon) Fredinburg is a Google Adventurer. That’s not his normal title &#8212; he’s a technical program manager who works on Google’s privacy and security team &#8212; but his love of the extreme outdoors led him and his colleagues to start organizing visits to the highest mountains throughout the past year and a half. As they planned, another colleague suggested using their trip as an opportunity to collaborate with the Google Maps team, and their modern-day cartography mission was born. Google Maps uses a variety of devices besides cars to capture footage from all over the world, including pushcart trolleys, trikes and, on occasion, snowmobiles. Cliffside hiking, however, required a different strategy. The Trekker &#8212; the backpack camera apparatus Google used to photograph its Grand Canyon collection, which debuted in February &#8212; had yet to be invented when Fredinburg and friends set their sights on some summits.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=158296&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know I&#8217;ve been writing more about Polaroid than Apple, Google or Microsoft lately, and promise I&#8217;m not going to do it forever &#8212; but this is too good not to share. For years, folks (including me) have written about the remarkable presentations which Edwin Land, Polaroid&#8217;s cofounder, longtime CEO and resident genius, gave. He&#8217;d stand on a stage by himself, talk and demo products &#8212; and he was so gifted at it that it&#8217;s impossible to discuss what he did without bringing up Steve Jobs, perhaps his only rival as CEO/technologist/showman. Those of us who didn&#8217;t see Land at work in person, however, have had to trust the memories of those who did &#8212; very little video is available of the man, in part because the Harvard Business School, which has the Polaroid archives, hasn&#8217;t indexed its audiovisual holdings yet. But Christopher Bonanos, author of the excellent recent book Instant: The Story of Polaroid and proprietor of the Polaroidland site, has uncovered a 15-minute film Land made for Polaroid&#8217;s 1970 shareholder meeting. In it, Land uses a helicopter and a giant blueprint as presentation aids as he talks about Polaroid&#8217;s plans for its next-generation instant camera. But mostly, he stands in a trenchcoat in an unfinished factory and talks about the future of photography. And when he takes something he describes as a wallet-like camera of tomorrow out of his pocket, as Bonanos says, it&#8217;s almost as if he&#8217;s somehow gotten his hands on an iPhone 5 a few decades ahead of time. The upcoming camera which Land discusses obliquely in the film was the revolutionary SX-70. When he unveiled it in 1972, it was strikingly more compact than any Polaroid before it, but wasn&#8217;t remotely wallet-sized. Land continued to talk about shrinking instant cameras down to truly pocketable proportions; he died in 1991, so he didn&#8217;t live to see the cameraphone. But I&#8217;ll bet he would have recognized it as the fruition of his vision. Bonanos&#8217;s post includes new commentary by Bill Warriner, the film&#8217;s director, who says<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=155715&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Say hello to Lytro, a new consumer-grade camera capable of focusing on multiple points in an image with eye-popping accuracy after you&#8217;ve snapped the picture. We first heard about it this summer, and now it has a release timeframe: early next year. What, you thought &#8220;4D&#8221; was just marketing gibberish? Because 4D implies &#8220;time,&#8221; and what the heck does a camera have to do with higher dimensions anyway? Let&#8217;s talk about light, or &#8220;light-field&#8221; technology, where a sensor captures not only the color and intensity of a scene, but also the lighting&#8217;s directional components (call it &#8220;3D light sampling&#8221;). According to Lytro, &#8220;Unlike a conventional camera that captures light in just two dimensions, the Lytro camera captures the entire light field, which is all the light traveling in every direction in every point in space.&#8221; By sampling light in three dimensions and adding a computational element, you can do all sorts of things with the image in post-processing. Like &#8220;synthetic aperture photography,&#8221; which lets you fiddle with the focus along multiple planes within a picture, &#8220;refocusing&#8221; the digitally captured image accurately after you&#8217;ve snapped it. (MORE: Will an Innovative New Focusing Technology Change the Way We Take Pictures?) Here&#8217;s an example that&#8217;ll serve for all. In the first image, I&#8217;ve tapped on the &#8220;butterfly plane&#8221; to bring that into sharp focus. Note also the flower the butterfly&#8217;s perched on, including its stem and leaves. In the next picture, I&#8217;ve tapped the trees in the backdrop. If you want to see more, Lytro has a bunch of images here you can fiddle with to get a better sense for all the planes you can select. The image above, for instance, supports focusing on several intermediary (between the foreground and background) objects. Lytro&#8217;s claim to fame: It can capture some 11 million light rays (also known as &#8220;11 megarays&#8221;—take that, megapixels!). For that, you&#8217;ll pay $400 for an entry-level &#8220;Graphite&#8221; or &#8220;Electric Blue&#8221; model next year (though you can preorder it here), and you&#8217;ll get 8 GB of storage, or about 350 pictures. Step up to the $500 &#8220;Red Hot&#8221; model and<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=100385&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You had the perfect shot. Everything was framed just right, your subjects were smiling, and the lighting was beautiful. But then you hit the camera button with a little too much gusto, and the whole photo came out a blurry mess. Fortunately, Adobe has demonstrated a fix for blurry photos in Photoshop. Using advanced algorithms, the deblurring effect analyzes pictures to determine how the camera was moving at the time of the photo and makes corrections accordingly. Adobe showed off the feature at its MAX conference last week. Adobe also showed off this feature at last year&#8217;s MAX conference, but now it seems more refined. (MORE: How to Take Better Food Photos With Your iPhone) The video above is, ironically, too blurry to do great justice to the feature, but you can hear people flipping out when they see deblurring in action, at about the 1:16 mark. (Also, the effect is more prominent if you watch at full screen in 720p.) As useful as deblurring might be for professional photographers, I&#8217;d be more interested in seeing the feature in Adobe&#8217;s upcoming Photoshop Touch apps for Android and iOS. After all, phone cameras are notorious for blurry pictures. The ability to correct motion blur on smartphone photos with an automated effect would be worth paying for. Sadly, Adobe&#8217;s not saying when or if deblur will show up in any version of Photoshop, let alone mobile apps. According to SlashGear, an Adobe executive said the feature &#8220;may or may not appear in a future version, we won’t commit to timing.&#8221; MORE: Inside the Mind of a Master Photo Editor<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=99541&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Instagram, the popular photo sharing service for the iPhone, just announced that it&#8217;s hit 150 million photo uploads thanks in no small part to its user base of 7 million picture snappers. For perspective, that&#8217;s about 15 photos being uploaded every single second. (MORE: Ask Techland: How Can I Take Better Food Photos with My iPhone?) Per the company&#8217;s official blog: &#8220;We&#8217;re constantly amazed by the range of photos shared on Instagram. People use Instagram to snap photos of everyday moments with friends and family and also to document significant personal moments, like weddings and honeymoons. There are Instagram photos from major events like the World Series and the Grammys, and some Instagram photos have even made the national news. Artists and celebrities have begun to give fans a unique look into their lives through photos, while brands like Burberry have started to realize the power of communicating with their followers through images.&#8221; The service has experienced enormous growth since it launched in the App Store just last October. The app is perpetually in Apple&#8217;s Top 25 &#8220;Free Apps&#8221; (currently it sits pretty at number 18), and seems poised to accumulate even more mobile photographers. But 150 million photo uploads is a pretty monumental achievement, and champagne is indeed in order, though we&#8217;re pretty sure Justin Bieber is responsible for about 100 million of them. Maybe 125 million. Chris Gayomali is a writer-reporter at TIME. Find him on Twitter at @chrigz, on Facebook, or on Google+.

		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago our friends at NewsFeed dubbed Dear Photograph their &#8220;Tumblr of the Week&#8221; — and for good reason. Its premise, like most good things, is incredibly simple: Someone snaps a modern-day photo in the exact place where a memorable photo had been taken years earlier. The images are then presented side by side. The result is a trippy sort of nostalgia, one that speaks to a particular place&#8217;s history and the passage of time. Today, the unveiling of an ambitious new site called Historypin takes the concept several steps further. In a partnership with Google, from which it leverages maps and Street View imagery, Historypin allows users to upload vintage photographs to geographically &#8220;pinned&#8221; locations on a map. Those images are then laid on top of Google&#8217;s Street View and organized on a navigable timeline, dating all the way back to 1840 (when the first recorded photograph took place). Landmarks, street corners, or wherever else you can imagine can be given unimaginable layers of depth via their own past and present communities. (PHOTOS: A Brief History of the Computer) &#8220;A story [as told through Historypin] could bring people together within a family, within neighborhoods or across different cultural groups,&#8221; says Historypin CEO Nick Stanhope. &#8220;[It was] born out of some testing we’ve done with groups and communities. Our goal is to to replicate it all over the world.&#8221; Though Historypin will crowdsource photographs from users everywhere, it&#8217;ll use a combination of user flagging and administrative moderation to cut down on spam or inappropriate uploads. If a user has an old photo that they&#8217;d like to submit, but don&#8217;t know the exact date or location it was taken, the photo can be approximated and further adjusted by the community. It&#8217;s a near picture-perfect definition of teamwork. Historypin also has partnerships with over 100 museums and libraries with which to build its archive, and users are encouraged to submit their own heirlooms, or submit their own modern snapshots. &#8220;A pin will always get more accurate,&#8221; says Stanhope, referring to<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=89649&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Camera company Pentax wants a space in your pocket, but it&#8217;s OK: you don&#8217;t need big pockets. They&#8217;ve unveiled the Pentax Q, and they&#8217;re calling it the smallest, lightest interchangeable lens camera in the world. And it&#8217;s true: the Q is small. It measures just four inches across and barely more than an inch deep. But there&#8217;s a lot of clever packed inside this minuscule box of tricks, including a 12MP CMOS sensor, a 3-inch screen, pop-up flash and a whole bunch of software magic. (GALLERY: Up in the Air Kite Photography) The Q isn&#8217;t a DSLR. And it isn&#8217;t a micro four-thirds camera. It&#8217;s a point-and-shoot with interchangeable lenses, and a lens mount system of its own, called (predictably enough) the Q Mount. The design ditches a lot of things that make other cameras bulky: things like flipping mirrors, optical viewfinders, focus plates, and autofocus sensors. When it&#8217;s released in the fall, the camera is likely to cost about $800, including a standard 50mm f1.9 lens. A selection of other lenses will be available to go with it, including a wide angle, a zoom, and what Pentax calls &#8220;toy&#8221; lenses. (MORE: Practice Your Digital Photography Skills on the Web) So who is Pentax aiming at with this thing? Anything with interchangeable lenses is probably going to appeal more to photography enthusiasts rather than holidaymakers or family snapshot takers. But when some of those lenses are called &#8220;toys&#8221;, perhaps Pentax is trying to pull in some of the people who&#8217;ve discovered the joys of retro photography in photo sharing iApps like Instagram. The Q also has some of the same fashionable retro design features seen on other pocket-size pro-am cameras recently, most notably Fuji&#8217;s X100. This is the Mad Men design influence, making our most advanced new technology look as vintage as possible. The real appeal of the Q, of course, will be in the picture quality. With such a tiny sensor some enthusiasts have already voiced concerns that it won&#8217;t be up to the job, especially in low light.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=87750&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Although technological advances have paved the way for smaller and cheaper camera models to enter the market, there haven’t really been any major innovations in terms of the hardware itself within the past decade. That’s why you see “classic” lenses and camera bodies still demanding exorbitant amounts of money on eBay, or on camera trading posts like Keh – solidly built, well-constructed optics are timeless. But a new Silicon Valley start-up called Lytro may just change the way we approach photography. The technology stems from an award-winning thesis by the company&#8217;s founder, 31-year-old Ren Rg, who graduated with a Ph.D. from Stanford University in 2006. (MORE: The Top 10 Best Camera Apps for the iPhone) Essentially, Lytro allows photographers to adjust a photograph’s focus after it’s already been snapped. But don’t be mistaken: This isn’t simple photo manipulation via Photoshop; it uses a process that&#8217;s entirely new. Lytro utilizes a technique called light-field photography, which according to CNET, has been an active field of research for years. Typically, a camera works by gathering light information onto an image sensor. An object must be “in focus” in order to appear clear in the resulting photograph. But with Lytro – which has managed to raise $50 million through three rounds of funding so far – the lens and image sensor take in light information from multiple directions at the same time using a special type of sensor called a microlens array. Essentially, it’s like having several cameras compacted into one small space, and it gives photographers one less thing to worry about since they don&#8217;t have to think about focusing. “[Lytro] allow[s] both the picture taker and the viewer to focus pictures after they’re snapped, shift their perspective of the scene, and even switch seamlessly between 2D and 3D views,” says the company’s website. “With these amazing capabilities, pictures become immersive, interactive visual stories that were never before possible – they become living pictures.” - The company promises to sell its first camera this year, and that the units will be affordably priced<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=87576&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There comes a time for many amateur photographers when they decide to abandon easy-mode point-and-shoot cameras, and switch to a proper DSLR. That&#8217;s when the learning starts. And it&#8217;s not easy to get your head around the complexities of taking good pictures. It&#8217;s not just understanding exposure, shutter speed, aperture and so on, but the way that adjusting one of them affects the others. If you find yourself in that position, the online Camera Simulator is a great way of getting your head round the basics. You&#8217;re given a scene, and a set of standardized camera controls. Adjust them to your heart&#8217;s content, and see what happens when you take the shot. The website shows you instantly what photographic results you&#8217;d get from your chosen setup. It gives you the chance to mess around with the controls, adjusting things one step at a time until you find the perfect settings for the effect you want to achieve. Of course, no web tool is going to be a substitute for getting outside and actually taking pictures, which is by far the best way of learning how to use your camera. But this Simulator is a great way of learning how a camera&#8217;s features are inter-related.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=82018&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What can you do if your camera&#8217;s been stolen? Not much, to be honest. Apple&#8217;s iPhones and iPads might have built-in locate-me technology, but the same cannot be said of most cameras, even the expensive DSLR ones. A website called Stolen Camera Finder might be able to help, though. It makes use of the data that your camera saves inside every photo it takes. Technically speaking it&#8217;s known as EXIF data, and it&#8217;s all the stuff your computer needs to know about how the image was taken. It&#8217;s an essential component of digital photography. The EXIF data includes basic stuff like the date and time (so your computer can display images in chronological order), and more complicated stuff like technical specifics about the camera&#8217;s settings when you pressed the shutter release button. And sometimes (but not always), EXIF data includes a unique serial number that precisely matches that image to that camera. To use Stolen Camera Finder, you drag in an image you&#8217;ve taken with the camera. It looks at the EXIF data, extracts that unique camera identity, then looks for other photos on the internet that have the same number. If you&#8217;re lucky, it finds matches, and might give you the lead you need to get your camera back &#8211; either in person, or by passing the information you&#8217;ve found on to the police. The site is very clever but it can&#8217;t work miracles. Your camera needs to be on the supported cameras list, and the image you give it needs to be an unaltered original jpg file &#8211; which is a problem if you prefer to shoot in RAW format. Also, EXIF data is a troublesome beast to handle. Different cameras handle it in different ways, and so do different photo editing applications, and different websites. Every time software touches a photo it may or may not amend, or sometimes completely remove, the EXIF data that came with it. But with some luck and a favourable wind, Stolen Camera Finder might just be able to locate the needle<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=81208&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cool kids take note. Photo and video sharing service Photobucket is making a move into trendier territory with the release of their new Snapbucket app, available for download on Androids as of today (the iPhone version will be available soon). Contrary to their other app, Snapbucket allows users to apply vignettes and other artful discolorations to get that retrofitted Urban Outfitter feel, which can then be auto-uploaded directly to their account in both the original and altered form. So what separates Snapbucket from other artsy photo apps like Instagram, who already dominate the space? &#8220;We have found that very few people have all of their photos and videos stored centrally,&#8221; CEO Tom Munro tells me in an email. &#8220;Our goal is to help everyone complete their photo and video story in one place, for life. This is the reasoning and the incentive to offer unlimited storage for free to the world.&#8221; Of course, if users already rely on other cloud services for photo storage (Flickr, Smugmug, etc.), or have already linked up with their friends on Instagram, the lure of Snapbucket&#8217;s late-to-market entry seems unlikely to cause anyone to uproot  their archive, which is always a pain. But if you&#8217;re not already on the good-bad photo bandwagon, the promise of unlimited upload space on the go might be enough to earn Snapbucket a few cool points with smartphone photographers who prefer going vintage.

		<description><![CDATA[Remember Color, the iPhone photography app designed to be used where people gather together? Well, there&#8217;s a pretty big gathering of people expected in central London tomorrow, and the people at Color and one UK newspaper have decided to make the most of it. Color and the Daily Telegraph have joined forces to create citizen news the like of which none of us has seen before. Right through the Royal Wedding day, there will be a mosaic of photos from the wedding in London and from celebrations all over the UK on display at the Telegraph&#8217;s website. Photos from a wedding are nothing special, Royal or otherwise. What makes this any different? Partly, it&#8217;s the unique nature of Color itself. It&#8217;s unusual because it was built for sharing photos automatically. There&#8217;s no extra button to press for sharing stuff and there&#8217;s no privacy option. When you open Color and start snapping, your photos are being shared instantly, with everyone else nearby, whether you like it or not. Color says it&#8217;s helping to &#8220;document this historic occasion through the eyes of people celebrating across Britain,&#8221; and in a sense that&#8217;s true. Color&#8217;s faced a lot of criticism since it was launched, but perhaps the Royal Wedding might be a turning point. It seems like the perfect event for an app that automatically shares photos and spreads them through huge crowds.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=79511&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Remember the moving photos that appear in newspapers and magazines in the Harry Potter stories? Well someone&#8217;s come up with a digital equivalent that could bring news articles to life on tablet computers, phones and e-readers. Jamie Beck and Kevin Burg worked together to create subtle animated GIF images for the web. They&#8217;re photos, but with a small element of animation added. And they look amazing. In the past, animated GIF images were all about cheesy UNDER CONSTRUCTION signs for personal websites. Beck and Burg&#8217;s work takes them to a whole new level. Now they&#8217;re works of art. Their stuff for New York Fashion week puts the idea to work in style. Models are seen with their hair waving in the breeze, reflections move in windows, newspapers rustle silently. And because these are humble GIF images, they&#8217;ll work everywhere. I&#8217;d love to read a digital magazine made with a few of these instead of huge processor- and disk-hogging video files.

		<description><![CDATA[Some of the world&#8217;s finest photographers have joined forces to document the aftermath of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami &#8211; and raise money for its victims in the process. The photojournalists &#8211; Dominic Nahr from Switzerland, Adam Dean from the UK, Shiho Fukada from Japan, James Whitlow Delano, Keith Bedford, and Paula Bronstein from the USA, and Jean Chung from South Korea &#8211; have all donated their images for free as part of the 3/11 Project. (See images from TIME&#8217;s photo blog LightBox here). The result is a hard-hitting photo documentary for iPhone and iPad, priced at just one dollar. All money raised by sales of the app will be donated to the Japanese Red Cross. This initial release includes 56 images, but a forthcoming update promises at least 100 photos and includes contributions from additional photographers, too. It&#8217;s fascinating to watch the iOS App Store extend its reach in unexpected ways. Apple&#8217;s online app-verse has become so deeply entrenched in popular culture and so effective at reaching large numbers of people that it&#8217;s actually a viable way to raise charity funds. And this is just the beginning. Expect to see lots more fundraising-angled apps as time goes on.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=77425&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is Apple planning some sort of social photo sharing application in the next version of iOS? The team at 9to5 Mac have uncovered evidence of something new called Photo Stream. Does the name sound familiar? It might well do, if you&#8217;ve been using a Mac for a while. Years ago, Apple created a system called Photocast, built into its iPhoto application. The idea was that you could throw any photos you like into a special Photocast list inside iPhoto, and let your friends and family subscribe to it. Every time they opened their copies of iPhoto, they&#8217;d see your new updates. It sounded pretty cool when announced, but it was one of Apple&#8217;s rare flops, and simply didn&#8217;t catch on. Fast forward a few years, and now we have the astounding success of the iPod, iPhone and iPad &#8211; all of which now come with cameras. It&#8217;s not like social photo apps are niche products. Ask the guys at Instagram, or Color. People love sharing photos. These apps make it easy. Photography is a much bigger deal for Apple customers now, and Apple needs to come up with clever ways of making the most of that. Photo Stream might be the answer &#8211; if Apple can make people love it. Its Ping! service for iTunes hasn&#8217;t exactly set the world on fire. But maybe it has learned enough lessons from that to make a photo sharing service work better.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=techland.time.com&#038;blog=5290478&#038;post=74538&#038;subd=timenerdworld&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
