Did they really choose not to include Flickr and all the other photo sharing sites out there? This is such a Microsoft execution, they need to learn to cater to the user and be more open to the entire web. I'm not going to use a new (FrameIT) photo sharing site just for this.

Stanley, FrameIt is not a photo sharing site where you upload photos like Flikr. It provides a means to merge various online feeds into 1 central feed.

For example, you could mix RSS feeds from Flickr, with RSS feeds from Google Picasa to provide 1 cntral RSS feed that contains all of your photos. This feed you could then share with others.

That is why FrameIt is so useful.

I've been using a photo service that does all of that, for free, with no advertisements, for a year now. FrameChannel. It's absolutely awesome and I would never leave it. I put my pictures on my computer and five seconds later they're showing on my wireless frame. I can even put pictures on it instantly from anywhere with my camera's Eye-fi memory card. Besides which, FrameChannel puts the weather, news, and pictures from any RSS feed on my frame.

FrameChannel. It's by FrameMedia. I love it.
