eshoebox.gifIt seems that most of the time on my quest to finding excellent applications, my journey to a product happens upon chance. Case in point; while skimming through Nick Bradbury’s blog I found a trackback comment to an article dealing with software piracy.

The trackback comment described how one software development team had to utilize product activitation to thwart the ongoing dillema of software piracy. That team was the guys at Constant Time and their product was the wonderfully polished application Electric Shoebox.

Constant Time describes E-Shoebox as the “easiest way to share your photos online. Share photos with friends right from your PC and broadband connection. You don’t need to deal with uploading photos to online services, like Ofoto, with size limits and slow upload times or struggle with sending emails with large attachments…”

One of the best aspects of the software is the built-in image editing capabilities. Within a few moments after importing my pictures into the software I noticed a few of my photos (due to the lack of using the flash) were either too dark or for that matter, too light. The process of tweaking photos is simple. You just adjust the brightness and constrast sliders until you’re happy with the results.

Electric Shoebox is hands down a solid and polished piece of software that already shows great potential.
