_______________________________________ Current security issues regarding social networking sites and online storgage mean that any family pictures that you put out on the net are rather easily accessed by anyone with a will to do so. You may want to reconsider any online storage options in light of this. What would your photos reveal about your family and lifestyle that you may not want hackers learning? A web security expert recently interviewed by CPU magazine claimed that anything, for example, linked to in Facebook or Myspace is unguarded and open to anyone who knows the method and has a reason to look. He demonstrated this at the Black Hat Conference. Picasa and other such methods are often linked to and or vulnerable to similar attacks. YMMV, pay your money and take your chance.
