What can you do with your mobile phone on Photobucket?

With today's release of the Photobucket Mobile Uploader for Verizon customers, we thought it's a good time to list all the things you can do with your mobile phone on Photobucket.

How many times have you seen people holding up mobile phones to take pictures?  Have you wondered what they do with all those photos? Do you know how to share mobile phone photos with friends and family?

Today’s mobile camera phones are capable of capturing high quality pictures and videos.  At Photobucket, we’ve found that people are relying on their mobile camera phones more and more – particularly when they encounter the unexpected, funny situations or memorable events.

In a recent survey of Photobucket users, 80% said they had a camera in their mobile phone, and 36% said they used it once a day or more!

Photobucket is excited to be part of the Microsoft Windows Live Services launch

We're excited to be part of the updated Windows Live Services announcement with Microsoft tonight.  Anything that makes photo sharing easier is good for all of us. Photobucket will be an integrated photo partner in Windows Live Services.
