[UCIMC-Tech] Re: [Imc-web] IMC Photosharing and Social Network Links on Main Page

[Josh King]

LovdByLess.com looks pretty awesome, but is probably more than we need 
for just photo sharing. I'm not a big picture-taking person, but Picasa 
might be the way to go. We can link it to our Youtube account and any 
other google services we might want to use in the future (such as gcal 
or something), so that we only have one account to manage instead of 
several.
