Western Digital network drive possessors have no requirement for services like Flickr, MobileMe Gallery, and Picasa. These owners can stock up their pictures on a WD networked hard drive, and exhibit them to pals, wherever they are with the WD Photos iPhone app.

WD Photos is a new app from the house of Western Digital, which is devised to display your pictures, stored on compatible WD networked hard drives.

Photographs are available everywhere you are, only if your iPhone or iPod touch is equipped with an internet connection, and offline copies of recently accessed pictures are set aside for your stuck-on-the-passageway browsing enjoyment.

Pictures can be arranged and accessed by albums and folders, or explored and sorted. One can also allot photos to contacts, e-mail them to peers, save them to their device's camera roll, and play them as a slideshow.

To utilize WD images, one must store their photos in the "Shared Pictures" folder of a My Book£ World Edition network drive or ShareSpace network storage system.

One must also sign in for NimoNet, which is Western Digital's free remote access service devised only for products like this and is free of charge.

WD Photos is a free app, which meekly needs iPhone OS 3.0 or superior on a compatible iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad.
