[Video-Feature] Exclusive Look at “PhotoShare” app from Big Canvas

Amongst the plethora of apps that have made the debut deadline, Big Canvas’ PhotoShare stands out among the crowd. Quick and easy photo sharing for all to enjoy.

Big Canvas, a creative developer of applications for the iPhone and Web, introduce their first application, Big Canvas™ PhotoShare. With PhotoShare, iPhone users can seamlessly share, store and manage images taken on their device. Photos can be uploaded live, moments after being taken, comments can be added to the images, and they can be easily categorized to share with designated groups. With a few simple gestures/touches, directly in the device interface, users can easily take images captured from daily life and distribute these photos to friends, family, affinity groups, or even just mark them for public or private viewing. The core application and service are free.

We have had the opportunity to get an exclusive from Founder and President of Big Canvas, Satoshi Nakajima, who tells MacBlogz that:

“The Apple App Store provides a unique opportunity for developers to bypass the carrier and deliver unique applications to end users. Our team at Big Canvas really rose to that occasion to create a tool that iPhone users can leverage to instantly share life experiences with others in photo form. We’ve added a variety of interesting features that allow people to really start a community around the images of their life. We’re really excited to see consumer reaction and can’t wait to continue developing new, innovative applications for the iPhone.”

“I’ve been developing mobile applications for more than 8 years now. When I began looking into the SDK, I found an elegant kit that really allowed developers to get creative and build something special. With PhotoShare I think we’ve captured that creativity that Apple was looking for and really delivered a high-end application that users can experience for free.”

PhotoShare is an innovative new application built from scratch just for the iPhone, using the iPhone SDK. It combines a native iPhone application and a Web 2.0 service, which work in harmony to ensure customers get the best possible user experience on the iPhone. As part of the development initiative, the Big Canvas team has optimized the overall architecture – not only the application, but also the underlying network protocols – to take advantage of the iPhone’s unique capabilities, features and requirements.

Some of the key features include:

• Family and FriendShare –share photos with family and friends directly from the iPhone (just as secure as sending private e-mail messages, but a lot more convenient).

• PhotoFavorite – when you save a public photo to your personal favorites, you essentially cast your vote for the best public pictures on PhotoShare; help distinguish the best-of-the-best from thousands of pictures posted by users, win great prizes.

• FollowPhoto – subscribe to other user photo-casts and enjoy the ongoing photo postings instantly.
