We selected some of the most popular to test drive. They included: pic.im, mypic.me, twitpic.com, yfrog.com. We looked home pages of the following but did not give them a test drive: pixelpipe.com, tweetphoto.com, twitsnaps.com, snaptweet.com (We would welcome your comments on any of these untested services.)
To cut to the results quickly: we chose to use pic.im for our photos. And we are very pleased that we did. Our testing notes – good image size, allows comments, includes STATS. Supports iPhone to Twitter (pic.im/website/iphone )
mypic.me — did not fly with us, because it did not support photo names with spaces, no stats, and no commenting
twitpic — offered direct post to Twitter which is good. Also accepted commenting. Didn’t care for the advertising that came with the service
yfrog.com — allowed comments, allowed sharing, and gave a fairly good sized photo display; however the resolution was not very good in full screen display. But at least they allowed full screen display.
Just a note as CEO of Yodio, we store photos in the size submitted. So 8 MB photos blow your socks off when shown in our full screen mode. We’re disappointed to see services like yfrog.com who take a compressed version of a photo and then push it to a blurry full screen display. We’d like to see photo quality benefitting from the full screen.
You can see the pic.im links in the posting history for @ElGauchoBell or @TasteandTweet.
Added note: The pic.im is associated with the URL shortener tr.im which we tried and really liked. tr.im offers a nice option for customizing your shortened URL.
Instead of just a long block of a few thousand words to try to sell to people something with big
and bold text and static photos, consider adding some video clips too yohr sales page.
Make your videos better with the feedback from your customers.
As was stated earlier in the opening of this article, video marketing is one
of the most effective marketing tools avaklable to improve your business.
May I just say what a comfort to find a person that genuinely knows what they’re discussing over the internet.
You certainly know how to bring a problem to light and make it
important. More people have to look at this and understand this side
of your story. I can’t believe you aren’t more popular since you surely
have the gift.
