Life Loggers share 100,000 Photos Monthly Using Big Canvas’ PhotoShare

SEATTLE, Washington – Oct. 9, 2008 – Big Canvas Inc., a Seattle-based technology firm, announced today that its visual life-logging application, PhotoShare, has reached a landmark with users sharing 200,000 photos in just two months since its launch. Currently, PhotoShare users are adding more than 3,000 photos and 6,000 comments daily. Known as “life-logging”, users are encouraged to connect visually around life’s simple moments allowing others to share in a private or public setting. PhotoShare is a free application for iPhone available through Apple’s AppStore.

PhotoShare’s popularity is growing worldwide as the technology and visual connection becomes a favorite. As of September 29, PhotoShare was Japan’s 49th most downloaded application in Apple’s AppStore. Within their private and public settings, users share everything from baby photos, pet pictures, pictures from a commute to work or a simple shot of lunch on a daily basis.

PhotoShare, developed by Seattle-based startup Big Canvas, is stretching social networking to a new dynamic visual medium. PhotoShare allows users to stay connected and in touch with public or private networks. The community is very dynamic and self-policing with photos being voted out if they are not true life-logs and representative of a personal experience (faces of politicians or celebrities for example).
