snapACT, Digital Photography Solutions Done Right: Part 1

We at snapACT would like to welcome you to our blog; this is where we will be providing regular updates regarding product and service creation progress. You are more than welcome to post comments to our blog postings, and we will try our best to respond in a timely manner. We believe that your feedback is essential to delivering what consumers need.

Before we start to explain any of the details about what we’re trying to accomplish with snapACT, we thought it wise to introduce ourselves and our products on a very high level. Over the course of the next few postings, we will be sharing what some of our goals are and how they are meant to help everyday people - including us. After all, we intend to use what we build as much as we hope you will.

To start, let’s go over some quick thoughts. Digital camera use is skyrocketing on a worldwide scale as the cost of owning a digital camera is becoming more reasonable. Digital photography is used everywhere - from a child’s very first birthday party, to the rock concert any given teenager has attended, to Grandpa and Grandma’s golden anniversary. The one common element is the person holding the camera and their needs. It’s easy to take photos these days, right? Digital cameras allow us to snap as many shots as we want and delete the ones that we don’t like right on the camera. We are no longer constrained by 24- or 36- shot film cameras - meaning that the odds of us having even more photos to deal with are far greater. We can afford to be snap-happy!

The photographer’s needs, however, are barely being met with solutions currently in the market. That is where snapACT comes in.

What are we doing?

What are we trying to achieve by creating snapACT and pouring our hearts and souls into this adventure? To put this as simply as possible, we at snapACT are going to provide digital camera and computer users a solution that will eliminate many of the common frustrations they encounter on a regular basis.

There are a few common steps that every digital photographer has to follow at some point. For example, eventually we have to take the photos stored on our cameras off; either to make room for more photos or to do something with them. This most likely means getting those photos onto a computer. What happens when we’ve accomplished that? Well, odds are the photos aren’t organized very well. After all of this, we still have to do something with our photos - we need to act!

Think about it:

1. Snap some photos.
2. Add photos to your computer.
3. Categorize and organize the photos on your computer.
4. Take action - enjoy and share your photos with others.

In the following postings, we’ll reveal more details about who we are and what our specific goals are.
