Between digital cameras and camera-equipped cell phones, there are hundreds of millions of new digital images created each year. If you are a typical digital photo-taker then you have thousands of digital photos on your computer. And let's say you have a special occasion coming up and you are looking for good photos of a specific friend or family member... most people need to go through every photo in their collection. How inefficient is that!?!? With Fotobounce, you can simply drag the person's icon into the viewer and voila - all the photos you have of that person are immediately displayed in date order. We think that is cool!
And the problem isn't getting any easier with the price of camera-ready devices coming down and the devices themselves getting smaller. With a utility like Fotobounce you can get on top of the problem and stay on top!
Here are some example uses of Fotobounce:
- Wedding Photography - you have photos of your wedding and need a quick way to organize them by guest. Once you have collected the digital photos from your guests
and your photographer, you can load them onto one computer running Fotobounce. Fotobounce will scan the photos looking for faces. Starting with the first photo, you can
start tagging the faces with names. Then you can easily create albums by group; bride side, groom side, and friends. To do that, create a group of people by highlighting the
people and then clicking the icon "add to group". Once the group is created, if you click on the group icon, Fotobounce will show you all the photos with any one of the group
members. Then you can select the good photos, and click the icon "create album". Name the album and then you can upload the album to Facebook, Flickr, or AirSet, to share with your group.
Another way to share those photos is to access them via a Blackberry or iPhone. You can show the photos to friends and family by logging into our mobile portal with
your username and password. Or, you can display the photos remotely from a computer at your friend's house.
- Birthdays - if you know a friend with a birthday coming up; you can select the friend from your list of people. All the photos of that person are immediately displayed in
the photo viewer. You can select the good photos, click on the icon "create album" and you will have an album that you can upload to Facebook, Flickr, or AirSet, to share with your
friend. You could also export those photos from Fotobounce and upload them to our partner, Embassy Digital, to create a beautiful photo book as a present.
- Anniversaries - you have a couple in the family (or some friend's) with an anniversary coming up. You can select the two people from your list of people. All of the photos
of that couple are immediately displayed in the photo viewer. There are tabs for photos containing either or both of them. You can create an album and then share that album
via Facebook, Flickr, or AirSet. You can always display an album as a slide-show presentation.
