Yahoo Flickr and Google Pisaca web album are the two most popular photo sharing services providers. Both of them share some similar features. They are not standalone Flash Slideshow /Web Album Maker. Instead they are online photo management systems with a combination of tools than as individual services.
However a combination of various of tools and features sometimes could turn into annoying as part of them are not necessary for most of us. It is a paradox to interconnect online and offline end user experience.
However if you need to make, edit and manage your favorite photos, albums both on your local machine and remote server for self-hosted websites or blogs, some standalone software like Flash Slideshow Maker is ideal. No hassle of unnessary features , services, ads, full access to edit , simple to use. Plenty of themes, templates, transition effects, motion effects, background music and most of them are customizable.
Most important of all,with google or yahoo's online photo management it is really different to make something special, think about how many users they have and how much customization you could make with their service.
Google stores our docx, spreadsheets, mail, calendar and google picasa now stores our photo. Google is Big! Looks like we are all on the way to having google be the ultimate online storage system.
