Facebook Launches “New Photo Uploader” – Faster and Lighter
Facebook has launched a new photo uploader claiming to be faster and lighter. This tool is been released for testing purpose as of now and is only available in Facebook Prototypes, for the social network’s testing grounds. The most amazing thing the user will experience is that you are allowed to navigate the site while uploading the photos. There might be great image hosting sites available but yet Facebook manage to host about 20 billion photos for now and the number is increasing every day.
Chris Putnam wrote on the facebook blog –
At Facebook, we’re always looking for ways to make sharing more efficient. Today we’re announcing a significant upgrade to our Photos product: a new and improved photo uploader that’s available for testing as a Facebook Prototype,” Facebook’s Chris Putnam announced.
Since Photos launched in 2005, the photo-uploading experience on Facebook has relied on the use of a third-party ActiveX control (and its sister Java applet),” he went on explaining the reasoning behind the new tool. “Over the years we have seen a growing number of complaints with this old uploader. In a recent poll, we discovered a significant percentage of users were unable to upload photos due to technical issues. Many more found it functional, but only just.
Users who are not bothered about the usual quirks and bugs that comes along with test version can surely try out the photo uploader in the prototype section.
