World's biggest photo sites gets unexpected competition

PR Newswire | 03 Sep, 2010
COPENHAGEN: The world's largest online video and photo exchange services - Flickr, Photobucket, Facebook, Smugmug, Picasa, Youtube, Vimeo - are suddenly facing serious competition from a completely unexpected contender - the barely 4-month-old service, Mejuba. Mejuba has been catapulted to success in the USA by the American consumer service Buxr, which named http://www.mejuba.com as one of the world's 10 best free photo services, together with the more familiar names above.

Following Buxr's announcement of the world's 10 best photo and video services, users are flowing in large numbers to Mejuba - and for very good reasons.

Mejuba's 100% free service for photo and video enthusiasts has absolutely no restrictions on the number of photos or videos or file size users can upload. Furthermore, there are no restrictions on the monthly traffic and no scaling of uploaded photos and videos - Mejuba will even store the originals of resized or edited media. Therefore Mejuba is often used as a backup of photos and videos while the users share them with friends and family. "Using Mejuba is without any limits and boundaries," says its founder, Danish IT engineer Nicolai Busekist.

Throughout the world people are becoming increasingly aware of the negative consequences of uploading sensitive information such as photos or videos to services like Facebook. Facebook users, in particular, may enjoy moving their photos and videos to Mejuba, where they will have full control over who can see them.
