So far I have stored my pics at Flickr but I think those days are over. Twango is the MUCH BETTER site with unlimited storage, very easy navigation and people who want to see the photos don’t have to subscribe first like on most other sites. To me Twango is the best media sharing site on the net. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The site was circa 1996. If you clicked on a photo to view it it loaded full resolution which was probably 8 megapixels, no joke. The point of the site was that your could choose photos to be printed.

It was beyond bad, but the kicker was that this photographer and dozens of other pros were using this site and paying over $100 a month to upload their photos and have their clients order prints. Also turns out he had never heard of Flickr. I quickly helped him to get setup there w/ a pro account at $30/year and then his clients could use Qoop to order a plethora of prints all w/ extreme ease of use.

So, having said all that I think I don’t think it’s too late for Twango to get on the scene. Particularly if many pro digital photographers out there still haven’t started adopting some of these online services yet.

It’s an attention based economy, so there’s plenty of opportunity for whoever gets the word out the best.

I love the navigation, the displays, the full screen slideshow, the ease of sharing with anyone you want, but most of all I love how easy it is to upload my photos and videos. I usually use Explorer’s publish to the web function, uploading to Twango directly from my video card. I also really like the twidgets. I never have to update photos on a website again; I just update my Twango channels. I love it! Now I need to buy a new iPod so I can start podcasting.

One great benefit is that my friends don’t have to sign up to view the pictures like a lot of the other sites out there. I love that I can upload pictures from a recent event, then share it to my friends, who then can upload all their pictures from the event. All pictures from all people in one place. This is much easier and more fun than passing CD’s around to everyone who joined in the event. I even put pictures of our annual rafting trip right into the evite for this years trip. It was really easy too.
