=What is Photo Sharing? Photo sharing is the publishing and transfer of digital photos online. Enabling the user to share their pictures with friends and the rest of the world. Photo albums are a thing of the past. Now it takes minutes if not seconds to share your pictures with friends and family. You can not only upload pictures from your computer but also with a camera phone. = =History: Photo sharing started in the mid to late 1990's primarily for the online order of prints. It became more popular in the early 2000's when users started to permanently centralize their photos in one location. Webshots, SmugMug, Yahoo! Photos, and Flickr were all among the first. Today photo sharing is used by White House officials to share photos of whats going on with the President. Facebook is now also a major photo sharing community.= =Links to resources:= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flickr http://www.usatoday.com/tech/products/2006-02-27-flickr_x.htm http://www.absolutemichigan.com/dig/michigan/photo-sharing-and-public-history/ =Videos:=
