Love services like this, but the problem is convenience. I've been using droplr and/or cloudup for years. Their mac apps make it stupid simple to share just about anything. Another problem: I can't abandon cloudup because they act as my archive ... my "dropbox". How I see it is: you're not really in the "Make image sharing stupid simple", you're in the "make it easy for people to switch" business. Solve those two problems and you'll have my business. :)

I like the simplicity but I don't see how it's better than imgur. Imgur is just as easy and anonymous, but I welcome competition!

@goeric imgur uploads are public, aren't they ?
Eric Posen
@httpete That's true, so there's no plans for discovery? It's like an unlisted YouTube video?
Pierre Francis Gouthéraud
@goeric Yep, it stays private !

@goeric @httpete Imgur uploads are private by default, and only made public if you either submit them to the gallery or change your settings/image settings http://help.imgur.com/hc/en-us/a...

@gerstenzang Thanks for clarification :)

My primary use case for image hosting is my blog. How can I guarantee my images will still be here five years from now? Ten?

@joshkerr I think that's a different type of use case from what Drp.io is offering, the main draw here is anonymity and quick sharing i think
Pierre Francis Gouthéraud
@joshkerr I do not think this is the perfect use case for drp.io at the moment, which is a free product that allows you to quickly share photos, files that have short-term life. If you want to keep photos for years you would have to pay for it (a new feature for drp.io?) or host it on your own server.

competitive advantage to imgur?
Pierre Francis Gouthéraud
@johnnyquachy Just look at their UI ;p
Abhi Chirimar
@httpete lol true. But I kinda love their UI and pay for the premium too. Seriously though, how else do you compete with them and other quick n anonymous hosts?
Reuben Metcalfe
Beautiful user experience. Slow goddamn clap.
