Opera Unite is how I envision the web. <--period

, , ,

Opera Unite is exactly how I envision my web experience working. Currently, I have a complicated web hosting/FTP setup that is cumbersome and time consuming. With Opera Unite, it's drop dead simple to share photos with my family. I envision a a situation where I just turn on my digital camera, an "eye-fi" like wireless memory card + service downloads my pictures to a folder on my computer, and Opera Unite makes it available to all! User Centered, super simple...all I had to do was push a button on my camera. My only beef would be that it's too simple- I'd like some time to evaluate and remove pictures I don't want published.

I do kinda like the aspect of having all that stuff "backed up" on a server, off site, but I suppose I could still manage to do that. I'll have to be placated security wise as well, but 8 years of (my) continued use gives Opera the benefit of the doubt on this front (for now).

I'm off to set up my services and kick the tires- I'll be back with more later!

note to self: I suppose I could redirect my URLs to my new Opera Unite URLs for all photo sharing, since that's essentially what I'm using my hosting for.
