Frustrated Digital Photographers Get Relief from Photo and Video Sharing Woes with PiXPO 2.0
New PiXPO 2.0 leads SnapFish, Flickr, Kodak and Picasa in offering consumers easy sharing of personal video along with their photo sharing.
Victoria, British Columbia (PRWEB) August 25, 2005 -- How2Share Technologies
Inc. today announced the release of PiXPO 2.0. While major software and hardware
vendors have made it easier than ever to create and edit personal video from
digital cameras and camcorders, PiXPO is the first product ever that allows
consumers to effectively share the large resulting video files.
After
listening to consumer complaints about the challenges of sharing their personal
videos, How2Share Technologies responded by adding video functionality to their
critically acclaimed PiXPO photo sharing software. As well, PiXPO 2.0 also
supports sharing of personal music files.
With PiXPO 2.0, high bandwidth
users can stream video directly from their friends' computers, while letting
those with lower bandwidth connections download personal video for viewing. With
options for private or public sharing, users have total control over who has
access to their media.
Additional features in 2.0 requested by its
growing digital photography audience include watermarking and RAW support, which
allows viewers on other computers to view RAW images through PiXPO regardless of
whether their own computer supports them.
Says How2Share CTO John Harley,
“I'm proud of our team, not only have they done a great job solving a
longstanding consumer problem, they've leapfrogged the video technology used by
other software companies in the process.”
The release of PiXPO 2.0 is a
major milestone for How2Share Technologies. Says CEO Colin How, “The interest
we're getting from customers and top-tier partners with our new technology is
phenomenal. In the future, we'll remember this release as when we turned the
corner as a company. This release is proving successful in its own right and
will also pave the way to some huge partnerships.”

Editor's Choice award from PC Magazine for "best photo-sharing software", PiXPO
can be downloaded from www.PiXPO.com. Visitors to the site can search a global
database of pictures, view public photo galleries, send e-postcards to friends
