Online Picture Frames - Living in the data cloud

By webbythoughts | Dec 27, 2006

I bought a digital picture frame for my wife for Christmas. We haven’t had a chance to play with it much yet, but the picture looks nice and it reads easily off of the memory card.

No complaints.

I was thinking today about my desire to move to the data cloud and decided that this would be a good use of the data cloud.

I poked around a little this morning and found this digital picture frame with some online features.

That’s pretty close. You can email photos to it and subscribe to Flickr RSS feeds.

That is pretty nice, but I would prefer something with a little more generic data cloud support. Maybe I want to upload the pictures to Picasa or another competitor. Maybe I want to host the pictures on Amazon’s web hosting service or another competitor.

Since the picture frame is supporting RSS feeds, maybe it is configurable to point somewhere else and they don’t mention it. If not, I’m sure somebody will be bringing it to the marketplace soon.
