As a blogger and a mom, I love to take pictures. I need a place that is safe and family friendly when sharing my pictures and videos. I want to make sure that my media is safe. Another service that I prefer to have is a printing service. It is a waste of time to download onto a store site to order my pictures.

Multiply is a social networking service that focuses on media sharing. The website was launched in 2004 and currently has over 14 million users. With Multiply, a user’s network consists of their direct contacts and others who are closely connected. Multiply is known for it’s stronger user security than most other social networking sites. Users can limit what items can be viewed by setting security settings to public, private (network or invite only) for each item on their site. Multiply is a free service that has an unlimited number of photos. Multiply offers limited editing capabilities for your photos.

The photos can easily be embedded into other posts or replies on Multiply. They can also be embedded outside of Multiply with a watermark. Multiply makes uploading pictures easy with an Auto Uploading tool. If you upgrade to a premium account, your full size original is stored indefinitely. With Multiply Premium, you will also get:

• Higher video upload limits (200MB or 20 minutes)

• Ad-free browsing and sharing

• One-click photo album downloads

For about 2 months, I have been using Multiply. At first, I was not too pleased. I am not a type of person that likes change. I get comfortable with something and stay with that. It is hard to get accustomed to something else. But I vowed to give this a real try. 2 months later, I can truly say that I am happy with Multiply. Not only am I happy with the online site but I am happy with the printing services. I ordered some pictures for our family. The quality was just as good or better than other printing services. The cost is comparable as well. My favorite part about the size is the customizable themes. Check out some of these themes!

I would recommend Multiply for not only your blogging needs but your other picture sharing needs. The editing program is limited but it covers the basics. I also love the ideas of their calendars. Their calendar templates are customizable and fun to play with. These would make great Christmas gifts for the upcoming holidays!
