Photobucket is one of the first file uploading websites on the Internet. Furthermore, many users are able to upload their own pictures and copy the links on a journal entry or a blog entry. There have been many sparkly pictures, pet pictures, and holiday themed pictures displayed on photobucket’s front page. Last year, photobucket added a feature that will allow users to upload videos and edit pictures using their own software. This addition is similar to Youtube’s additional features on uploaded videos by using annotations or using their editing software.

There are many advantages to photobucket because users can store their photos online and recover their files. For example, Dan’s desktop computer crashed recently and he lost all of his travel pictures from Europe. He is unable to save his pictures on a CD and he is unable to connect to the internet. However, he remembers uploading his photos on his photobucket account before his computer crashed. Therefore, he connects to the Internet using his laptop, logs on to his photobucket account, and retrieves his travel pictures. As a result, Dan is a happy person and learns a valuable lesson. Saving photos on to various multimedia formats before a computer disaster is recommended because the user is able to access their files without the Internet.

While this is the best website for uploading photos, photobucket is being targeted by hackers. A few months ago, hackers attacked photobucket by replacing the main login page with a real estate page from another country. Every time a user tries to enter the link or use google to access photobucket, the user is being redirected to a page with poorly written spelling and grammar. The webmaster of photobucket deleted the page and restored the website, but the battle between websites and hackers is not over.
