4 Great iPhone Apps for Photo Sharing

A common problem for photographers of all levels around the world is that they have way too many photos and very little time to share them. In 2007, it was estimated that Americans took approximately 30 billion photos and that about 330 billion cumulative images were saved worlwide.
The rise of the iPhone as a photo sharing device has helped photo lovers around the world share their photos faster and smarter. Here is a list of 4 must-download iPhone apps for photo sharing.
 
Color

 According to its developers,  Color creates new, dynamic social networks for your iPhone. Given the success of similar iPhone apps such as Instagram, this app has received a lot of media buzz including reviews in USA Today and Bloomberg Business Week.
The main innovation from Color is that it uses geolocation and to allow for immediate photo sharing of pictures between nearby iPhone users. This way, users can create creative (2 heads think better than one!) and immediate photo albums to share with friends.

Wink

Made by Shutterfly, Wink stands out from other iPhone photo apps in that the main point of the app is to share printed photostrips via mail. Wink allows you to create photostrips from pics available from your iPhone photo library, Flickr account, Facebook photo albums and Shutterfly account.
Wink allows you to create photostrips with 3 photos, 4-photos or 5 photos. You can send a printed photostrip anywhere in the world for $2.50.
 
Instagram

 The rise in popularity of Instagram has been amazing. As of May 16, 2011, the official iTunes page reports that there over 3.75 million Instagram users around the world.
The fast rise of Instagram has been fueled by being an official tool by the National Public Radio (NPR) for photo distribution, a favorite iPhone app from Jack Dorsey (Twitter founder and Instagram investor) and Phil Schiller (Apple marketing guru), and a way to share photos by Korean pop stars and gangsta rappers such as Snoop Dogg.
 
Flickr


 If the Shutterfly team was able to come up with an iPhone app, the Flickr team (acquired by Yahoo!) had to come up with one as well. According to the app developers at the official iTunes page of the Flickr iPhone app , the app allows you to:
•    Shoot, upload and share photos & videos: Geo-tag your photos or add them to a set. View your photos by set and tag.
•    Stay up to date: See recent photo activities from your friends and family. Search and view photos by contact. Make comments or mark them as favorites.
•    Explore the world: Search photos & videos from the Flickr community all over the world – by subject, people, or places.
This app is free for download and is a great way to keep your ever-growing Flickr photo-stream current.
