PCWorld Reviews BubbleShare (beta)
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "ARTICLE" @ 12:00 PM
"BubbleShare, currently in beta-testing, is billed as "the first zero-registration, private service for sharing photo albums with voice captions over the Internet." That's not exactly true—you will have to enter your name and e-mail address before actually sharing your pics—but this is one of the Web's most elegant and intuitive photo sites. You can share wonderfully slick online photo albums in minutes, dragging and dropping pics straight from Windows Explorer. And, yes, you can even tag your pictures with voice captions."
I hadn't heard much about Bubbleshare so I just tried it out and the initial cost of putting images up on this Flickr like product is really low. However, as the article correctly points out, this also turns out to be a downside. To create an album, all you have to do is enter your name and e-mail address. But the service doesn't create an umbrella account that lets you access all your albums. Instead, each time you create one, you're sent a new link where go to continue editing and managing it. Still a good idea though so go ahead and try it out.
