the mobile imaging (taking pictures with your phone) experience just got simpler. again.
while most people are still using their camera phones as latter day wallets - or perhaps to snap photos to use as background on their phone's display - doing something more with those images (sharing, storing, editing, printing) is becoming a more real and mainstream possibility. the timing's about right, since the picture quality/resolution of most camera phones has reached a level (multi-megapixel) that makes images worth keeping.
having now enjoyed a few months using the shozu app (linked) to upload images to my flickr account (also linked) - see my october 2005 post for full detail - and having had a few weeks to play with the yahoo!go photo sharing app (see my january 6 post for detail and links), i'm looking at the vizrea snap app (linked) with as seasoned an eye as any. and i like what i'm seeing.
like the other two, vizrea enables quick and simple straight-to-the-net sharing of the pictures you take with your mobile. all three solutions are designed for nokia symbian/series 60 devices - gotta love that open platform. no multimedia messages surcharge. no multimedia message-inspired file size limitation. rather, your photo uploads at full quality and as a simple data stream. as is the case with the other two solutions, you'll want to make sure you have an unlimited data plan before using.
vizrea doesn't stop there. it not only allows for uploading images for web storage, sharing, editing, printing, whatever (and tagged however you may wish), but also let's you upload directly to your (vizrea software enabled) PC, from wherever you may be. and, just as cool, the app allows you to in turn use your mobile to browse the images on your personal vizrea webpage or those images stored on your pc. all quite simple. really very cool.
and free...
