Whois & Analysis for use.com

Image sharing, or photo sharing, is the publishing or transfer of a user's digital photos online.

Image sharing websites offer services such as uploading, hosting, managing and sharing of photos (publicly or privately).

This function is provided through both websites and applications that facilitate the upload and display of images.

The term can also be loosely applied to the use of online photo galleries that are set up and managed by individual users, including photoblogs.

Sharing means that other users can view but not necessarily download images, and users can select different copyright options for their images.

An image hosting service allows individuals to upload images to an Internet website.

The image host will then store the image onto its server, and show the individual different types of code to allow others to view that image.

File sharing is the practice of distributing or providing access to digital media, such as computer programs, multimedia (audio, images and video), documents or electronic books.

File sharing may be achieved in a number of ways.

Common methods of storage, transmission and dispersion include manual sharing utilizing removable media, centralized servers on computer networks, World Wide Web-based hyperlinked documents, and the use of distributed peer-to-peer networking.

A blog (a truncation of the expression weblog) is a discussion or informational website published on the World Wide Web consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries ("posts").

Posts are typically displayed in reverse chronological order, so that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web page.

Until 2009, blogs were usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject or topic.

In the 2010s, "multi-author blogs" (MABs) have developed, with posts written by large numbers of authors and sometimes professionally edited.

MABs from newspapers, other media outlets, universities, think tanks, advocacy groups, and similar institutions account for an increasing quantity of blog traffic.

The rise of Twitter and other "microblogging" systems helps integrate MABs and single-author blogs into the news media.

Blog can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

In computer networks, to upload is to send data to a remote system such as a server or another client so that the remote system can store a copy.
