We've all experienced it. You've taken a bunch of photos or a home video at a family gathering and now you're trying to figure out how to share your work with everyone in your family. It's possible to use online photo sites like Flickr, Shutterfly, or Photobucket, but what if you had a localized program that could share photos and videos immediately? Not all your relatives are as computer savvy as you, so you want a program that works quickly and with the fewest steps. You want a program that anyone in your family will be able to figure out.
You can automatically sync with your folder of pictures or drag and drop a folder to the interface.

Memeo Share only takes a few steps to set up and makes it possible to share photos and videos with anyone you want. Choose a folder of photos or video and upload them to Memeo Share, then simply add your family members' e-mail addresses to invite them to a Sharing Circle. From there, all your friends and family will be able to view the latest photos and videos without the hassle of resizing, multistep uploading processes, or online sites. You can also share high-resolution images, because Memeo Share uploads big files in the background and syncs to everyone in your Sharing Circle. It also has options for uploading to YouTube and Facebook, if you want an easy access point to those sites as well.
Quickly add more photos to automatically sync with your Sharing Circle.

If you share a lot of photos with friends and family, five bucks a month is definitely worth it to do away with all the hassle of sharing online or by e-mail.
Tuesday morning software company Memeo launched a new product called Share. Aimed at people who don't use photo- or video-sharing sites, Share lets you take what you've captured on your digital camera and beam it to friends and family members without clogging up their e-mail in-boxes with full-resolution shots.
The product is not aimed at the Flickr crowd, but instead at people who want to create small circles of people to share their shots with. That's not to say there's not a social element, since it can be configured to automatically upload your shots to Facebook. It can also slurp up your existing contacts from Web mail providers, like what you'd get using Plaxo.
The company is offering free licenses of the software to the first 1,000 people who sign up to use it. After that it will get capped off at 10,000 sign-ups.

Each time I go shutter-happy, I'm reminded of digital photography's beautiful myth. Yes, impressive megapixel loads deliver in-your-face resolution that elevates photos from the usual point-and-shoot quality. However, there's that time-sucking task of cropping, editing, captioning, and distributing the sprawling photo collection, and those are things even the fanciest camera on the market won't do.
The time and effort it takes to process a large batch of photos can be off-putting, but here are a few media-organization tools from the CNET Download.com library to move along the sometimes-arduous process of getting photos from the desktop to your friends.... Read more
