Food – Photo/Visual Integration As the Internet has exploded in size, one way people are responding to the vast amounts of material they find online is by exploring new ways of saving, highlighting, annotating and sharing what they like or find useful. The things we do about photos are all about showing, sharing, and storing them. When we come back from a holiday/outing/events with a group of friends, we most probably would do something like: Store the photos -You want to save the photos from your camera and share them quickly, as well as collect photos taken by your companions’ camera. Show the photos - You want to show photos to others in person using a computer, an iPad or smartphone. For friends elsewhere, they can browse your photos via the Internet. Share the photos - You want to let all your friends know about your life. Friends who also joined your trip can obtain the photos in the original size.
