Industry = Internet & Online

Press Release Summary = One more online software replacement service has recently
become popular: online wallpaper.

Press Release Body = More and more software "interior" of a computer is stored
online. The first victims of this process were mail clients. The struggle has been
long, but now we can say for sure that it is more convenient to use online mail.
After that bookmarks, calendars, organizers, text processors, spreadsheets, photo
archives, etc. moved from the computer to the Net. For many reasons, it is now more
comfortable to store all that in the Internet. One more service has recently become
popular and can be easily added to this list now as well: online wallpaper. It is
very similar to newspapers: someone publishes news and you subscribe to them and
receive them with the help of a mail box or RSS. The only difference in case of
online wallpaper is that someone publishes photos on the Internet and they
automatically appear on your desktop. This online wallpaper service for subscribers
and publishers is called Wapacaster.com. You can subscribe to wallpapers and see how
it works at Landscapedvd.com blog.
Wallpaper images are grouped into channels you can switch: landscapes, nature,
celebrities and so on. Sets of images and topics depend on each publisher's personal
preferences. Usually, this wallpaper webcasting on each topic comes parallel to a
blog. Obviously, because the "wapacasting" and blog technologies are ideologically
similar and perfectly complement each other. Sample wapacasting blogs: Landscape
Pictures (www.landscapedvd.com), Nature Wallpapers
(www.exterpassive.com/naturewallpapers).
It should be noted that the authors of the above blogs stick to the way of
publishing photos taken from another closely related online photo archive service -
Flickr. It is significant that photos are licensed as "Creative Commons" or "Some
Rights Reserved" - another phenomenon that could emerge and exist only online.
Thus, the appearance of some web services results in the emergence of other services
and we see some kind of online OS growing in front of our eyes where we gradually
move the items of the software interior of our personal computers. It is high time
to make bets what the next online software replacement service after online
wallpaper will became popular. May be online clocks?
