Kodak EasyShare
Kodak EasyShare (or EASYSHARE, as the vendor insists on shouting) is free software that lets you prepare your images for printing or sharing online. It also forms part of a larger system which consists of a choice of Kodak digital cameras, a docking station, an online gallery (www.kodakgallery.com), greeting card software, and a comprehensive printing service that offers an excellent range of real photo albums.
Kodak EasyShare software lets you tag your photos and videos, use 5-star ratings, search keywords and ratings, and view them by calender dates. It offers one-click editing and hundreds of templates for home print projects.
For sharing there is fast upload of pictures and videos to Facebook and YouTube, as well as to kodakgallery.com. There is also an extensive shop where you can buy picture albums, clothes, calendars, frames, prints, and many other items.
Comment
Kodak has given its EasyShare services a much-needed facelift, with better explanations, really competitive print prices, and a more personal approach by the management instead of the traditional, mega-company "corporate speak."
It works well -- and the hundreds of new designs and layouts for cards and books are also welcome. It is good to see this part of the empire back on track.
