Free Web Version: Photoshop Express Released Today!
The release of Photoshop Express as an internet application is in line with a new generation of tools available to the public.
The era of “web 2.0″ is upon us!
Web 2.o applications, like this blog, are geared towards moving the editing and managing capabilities away from the “desktop” and onto the internet. This empowers users to work from anywhere with controlled access to public and private communities.
Services like this (and flickr) are expensive to develop and maintain. Especially with lot’s of traffic (requiring high bandwidth) and storage (using hard drive space on a server) not to mention development and maintenance costs (software developers need to eat!). These costs must be supplemented through advertising and the sale of upgraded storage and bandwidth.
Services for image processing on the internet have been available for several years.
I will try to collect a comprehensive list of these, but picassa and flickr are probably the most similar applications that provide similar capabilities. It was inevitable that Adobe would begin to provide this service, and now it’s here. Please try it if you’re interested and leave a comment to share your experiences!
