Share Photos with Ease

As a mom living far way from my own family, I was looking for an easy way to share the hundreds of photos quickly filling up my computer’s hard drive.  In my search, I found Flickr – a great service for both storing and sharing photos on the web.  I love Flickr for several reasons – it’s super easy to use and organize your photos; it’s integrated with Target photo labs for easy printing; some basic photo editing tools are built in; and it’s free!

My family members have signed up as my contacts in Flickr, and are notified automatically when I upload new photos.  You can easily control the privacy of your photos, with options to make them completely private, only visible to contacts, or public.  Grandma loves being able to select the photos online that she wants to print and voila! – they are ready for pick up in under an hour at her local Target.  No more waiting for them to be mailed.  You can even make all sorts of nifty little gifts through Flickr’s partners – everything from photo mugs to tiny photo magnets.

My favorite feature is the option to integrate Flickr with your Facebook account – when you upload new photos, Flickr will post them on your Facebook wall with a link back to your account.  One click and I’ve updated both my family on Flickr and my friends on Facebook – what could be easier than that?
