| PBase and Flickr | 11 Mar 2005 19:02 GMT | 6 |
I noticed that many people on this NG use PBase to share photos. Flickr seems to have similar capabilities but there's no charge because of the Google ads - I guess. I didn't find the ads annoying. I'm looking for a good photo sharing site that offers privacy and is simple
