New PhotoMail service from Yahoo!

31 May 2005

Yahoo! has announced plans to launch a test version of a new service called PhotoMail.

PhotoMail will enable users to insert up to 300 digital photographs into the body of an email and store an unlimited numbers of photos on the internet.

The web giant added that PhotoMail can also add borders and captions to photos embedded in the body of emails and perform some simple editing tasks, such as rotating them or adjusting the size and quality of the image.

"Photo sharing is enormously popular and thought by many to be too complicated," said Andy Spillane, vice president of Yahoo! Mail said.

There are currently limits on the number of photos that can be sent as attachments or the amount of data that can be attached to an email. Yahoo!'s is the first such service to simplify its photo storage, editing and sending system.

Yahoo! has around 64 million unique monthly users, according to ComScore MediaMetrix.
