Dropbox is an incredibly popular
service for keeping files synchronized, but it’s sort of a general
purpose program. It’s not particularly pretty and it’s definitely
not geared towards photographers like some others, but that may be
changing soon thanks to the company’s recent acquisition of Snapjoy.
Dropbox hasn’t made an official comment
on the purchase yet, but Snapjoy co-founder Michael Dwan says that
there’s a lot to be gained by being a part of the larger company.
“The user experience we always wanted was limited by our
development capacity and the economics of scale,” he says.
“Dropbox has some of the best talent in the world and is
operating at incredible scale, so a lot of the barriers are removed.”
