Slide Photo Sharing Service Launches


slide screenshotCNET News has the scoop on Slide, a new photo sharing service launched by PayPal co-founder Max Levchin on Monday that’s set to steal some of Flickr’s thunder:

[Slide] combines aspects of social networking, photo sharing, Web syndication and e-commerce. At the heart of Slide is a downloadable desktop program that indexes all the photos on the user’s hard drive and creates a slide show at the edge of the screen.

From there, members can invite family, friends and other Slide members to view and save the member’s photos and join Slide as a “friend” in the member’s [online] network. Members can also add one another’s images to their own slide shows and alert one another to new albums. A set of access tools lets users publish their photos to as few or as many people as they wish, and subscribe to other people’s photos.

To learn more, checkout Slides’ FAQ page.
