Picnik + Facebook = Photo Bliss

posted by darrin May 25th, 2007

From the beginning we’ve designed Picnik to be integrated with 3rd party sites. We dream of having easy, powerful, fun photo editing tools wherever our photos are. Today Facebook has made it possible for us to tightly integrate in just the way we’ve imagined.

We’re happy to announce Picnik’s Facebook integration. After adding Picnik to Facebook it lives as a link right next to Facebook’s Photos link. Click it and you’ll see all your Facebook photos. Open any of them and edit to your heart’s content. Then save your new photo right back to Facebook to share with your friends. You can also easily move photos between Flickr, Picasa Web, and Facebook.

This is the future of best of breed, integrated web applications. You’ve got to see it for yourself! If you have a Facebook account, just click this link to hook it up with Picnik: http://apps.facebook.com/add.php?api_key=e2a53b543852fbddfaa130af2cd49d39.

If you don’t have a Facebook account create one!

    Since Zooomr Mark III has an open API, it would be nice if this service will be accessible from Picnik someday.

    Congratulations to the Picnik team, you are doing great adding support for these third-party APIs. Picnik really shines in its speed and ease-of-use, something the Facebook community will appreciate. I prefer the decoupled approach you offer, where photo editing is a separate service from photo sharing, as compared with SmugMug who produces (and has to support) in-house photo editing, which I feel hinders their feature development on the sharing side. Facebook works with QOOP for photo printing as well, giving Facebook users *real* photo sharing options. Your team might consider doing some advertising within Facebook via their “Flyer” system, to promote the new Picnik integration.
