Photo Archive

How about Dropbox?

Have you tried Google Picasa? It has editing tools, photo collage tools, online prints, and you can sync to your google drive space. The facial recognition is neat (and creepy), but it makes it pretty simple to retouch and edit your pics.  

Although, I do not care for it as much since they moved it from Picasaweb to Google +.

Dropbox works great for me. They just added specific photo-centric features that allow automatic uploading of photos from all devices.

A simpler solution than using "thumb drives and other workarounds" is to enable your computers to share with each other over your home network. Then you can create a folder on your wife's computer where all the photos are kept, and drag-and-drop photos, files, folders, or whatever from your other computers into that folder without having to manually transfer them via thumb drive, SD card, etc. 

It isn't automatic like Dropbox, but on the other hand, it's free.

You could also set up a home file server, but then again, you did say you wanted a simple solution so you're probably not interested in that.

I *LOVE* Dropbox.  I've been using it for years, for both personal and professional projects and am not sure how I lived without it.

If you sign up, please use this link:  http://db.tt/Op2FG6m

When you sign up with that link, you and I will both get an extra 500 megs of storage for free.  You can then do this with your friends, contacts, and so on.  They also have a handful of other simple ways to get additional free storage.

I started out with DropBox's free 5 Gigs of space and by referring other users, tweeting about it and using their other tools, I'm now up to 12 Gigs of free cloud space.  Sure, it might not be enough for an entire photo archive, but it's a helluva start and free to try!

Check it out!

Jawohl

Sounds like they've got Tomasz right where they want him.

HEY!  They get a new customer, I get another half gig of space.  I see it as a win-win situation.  ...And I've yet to pay them a penny!  :-)

Ha! Just teasing, Tomasz. 

I use Google Drive, myself, although I don't have much need for storage. It's great for writing, though, as it constantly saves your work as you type. Where was this when I was in college? So many term papers lost due to bad floppies. 

All my phone photos automatically upload to Google+.

Loves & hugs to you B.

I've got Google Drive as well.  Love it too, for those purposes...

XOXO,
