Ajax Based Photo and Video Sharing Sites Re-launched

One of Ajax’s features is its ability to cut the bandwidth requirement. There are so many interactive websites out there but they can’t be easily accessed since users don’t have the required internet speed to access their website. Ajax’s complex coding cuts the bandwidth requirement big enough so that users with slower internet connection could enjoy the sites only high speed internet users can access. Ajax based websites are starting to show up, giving us the glimpse on how fast a service could be. So far it has received great reviews. Ajax is living up to its promise for better access to users. DropShots is one of those sites that use Ajax. DropShots offers free hosting and sharing of photos and videos. The website was stripped down to mere idea and was built right from the scratch. Now Dropshots is back with better technology and is looks very promising because of its features. Users can upload their content 10 times faster that other popular video or photo sharing websites. Instead of search and upload function, users will be able to drag and drop their content to the website. It’s on of the cool features of DropShots because of Ajax. There are so many repercussions of Ajax when properly implemented in a website. DropShots is a perfect example of this effect. Since it requires lower bandwidth, uploading content is now faster. Instead of offering the same services online, DropShots extended their offer by giving them clearer photos and wider video screens. On the user side, the photos and videos uploaded are organized by dates. Organization of photos and videos has never been easier because of this feature. You can use the site as your photo and video host. You can also share your photos and videos in your blogs and in social networking websites. Interactivity is also good in this website. Instead of simple comments such as “great pictures” or “great videos”, comments are placed in a chat-like box. Families and friends that can access the account will be able to talk online using this feature. Security is also an added option. You can add a password to your account and share them to your friends only. Of course, you can also create a public viewing account although you can’t browse through the website and look at different photos and videos like other popular video sharing website. We tried out the website and it does live up to its name to be faster compared to other websites. For the drag and drop part, you can practically avail of this service by downloading their free software. It’s practically a Ajax based widget that is placed right in your desktop. Once you’ve signed in, you can practically upload your videos and photos to your account. This is certainly a great website to try out for Ajax. To quote the founder, Ryan Sit in relation to the release, “We have leveraged the latest technologies mixed with some of our proprietary architecture to create what we think is the next generation in the online photo and video sharing. We believe this is the most exciting thing happening in photo and video sharing right now.”
