The Web’s most trafficked online photos destination will soon offer features synonymous with a desktop application to anyone with an internet connection. The use of AJAX technology allows for easy drag and drop organization and sharing, virtual albums, tagging, search, and smart albums.
- Market Opportunity
- According to comScore Media Metrix, approximately 165 million people use online photo sharing services per month (November 2005). Yahoo! Photos is the No. 1 online photo destination with the largest number of unique monthly visitors in the world.
- DEMO Says
- Photo sharing and management is a perennial topic at DEMO. With each year, we see the state of the art advancing, yet ease of use continues to be a hurdle to mass adoption of online photo applications. Yahoo’s offering takes a giant leap forward, delivering desktop-like functionality, ease and performance in an online application. And the integration with other Yahoo services provides more value overall.
