Not long ago I blogged about frying my digital photo frame. I replaced it with the Sungale ZA701 from Buy.com for $29.99 including shipping. It has since sold out and I don’t know if they will be getting more in but it was a very good value for the money. The resolution is no better than what I fried but it allowed me to put 2400 photos on a 256mb SD card and it accesses them all. It has a remote and and easy off/on on the remote which my previous frame did not have. It comes with a removable frame if you are tight for space.

SnapFish www.Snapfish.com is a photo sharing site. They handle both digital and film photographs. Sign up for an account for FREE. Then you can upload photos from your computer to their server and share them with anyone you wish. Note that is anyone YOU wish. The photos are only seen by your invitation. You place your photos in albums that you define. Even better is the fact that your invitation is not all encompassing. You can send out an invitation to share for one album and the next album you upload you may not want to share with the same people. You decide who gets to see the photos. As an obsessive grandparent, I take tons of photos. I would put the best ones up on my web site under a pass worded section. Then I would email my family members to tell them when new photos were up. It was a bit labor intensive. Not horribly so but Snapfish is way easier. Of course, they try and sell you stuff. They will do prints of your photos for $0.12 each in 4x6...
