Digital Home Thoughts: Facebook/YouTube Plugins for Photo Gallery and Movie Maker

"Do you share photos on Facebook? What about sharing sharing videos on YouTube? Well thanks to Will Duff, one of our developer interns this past summer, there are now a couple of brand new publish plug-ins for Facebook and YouTube available for download. Both plug-ins enable you to easily share your photos or videos with just a few clicks!"

Facebook is great for connecting with people... over the last two weeks I've "found" two friends I had "lost" years ago. Sharing photos and videos is great too. But uploading those photos or videos isn't as simple as it could be, particularly if you have to find the file you want to upload while still in the web browser. These two new plugins for Windows Live Photo Gallery Beta and Windows Live Movie Maker Beta greatly simplify the process. Both plugins allow you to upload photos or video directly to Facebook (photo/video) or YouTube (video only) directly within the tool. I've only tested the Photo Gallery upload to Facebook, but it's as straightforward as it appears. I like it!
