| Q:
|
| Is my content secure?
|
| A:

| Yes, by default user accounts are required to view photos, events and friends. You control your user list and what they can/cannot see.
|
| Q:
|
| How can I publish my content? How do I make my friends aware of new stuff?
|
| A:
|
| Your site comes with built-in mailing lists to notify users of new blogs, new photo albums, new videos and events. In addition, each site publishes an RSS feed, the Internet standard in syndicating content. Finally, if you have a Twitter account, you can have the site update your Twitter status.
|
| Q:
|
| Can I upload my own photos?
|
| A:
|
| Yes, you can upload an unlimited number of photos. For best results, keep the size under 800 pixels and only JPG formats are supported.
|
| Q:
|
| Can I include videos?
|
| A:
|
| Yes. You can display videos uploaded to a video hosting site such as Google Video or YouTube. We're not yet streaming videos at this time.
|
| Q:
|
| Why wouldn't I just use Facebook or Myspace?
|
| A:
|
| Those are great social networking sites, but not so great for publishing. My parents would never sign up for those sites; this way I can share pictures, blogs and events with everyone I choose, regardless of which sites with whom they may have accounts.
|
| Q:
|
| Will my site be compatible with iPhone?
|
| A:
|
| Yes! All sites automatically detect and redirect for an iPhone-optimized site!
|
| Q:
|
| What other mobile features are available?
|
| A:
|
| All sites have a remote blogging application that allows you to simply send an email, including an attached photo, and have that posted as blog entry. You can also update your site status, and we'll soon be offering SMS integration as well.
