Jun 24th
Finally after reading lot of reviews and comparison about online photo printing service in India. I have decided to opt for Picsqare to send some recent photos to my family back in India. I remember Christelle introduced me to this sometime back; thank you.
Picsquare Overview
Picsquare is an online photo sharing and printing site based out of Bangalore. They have a very simple user interface which they need to improve. This site is been started up young entrepreneur Indians Manish and Kartik. Printing photos with them is simple as brewing hot coffee
Quick Reasons
Even there were lot of other options to try. These are the options which made me to choose Picsquare.
- I aways like to give thumbs up to young entrepreneurs

After releasing iPhone at MacWorld 2007, Apple’s stock geared up. Check out the complete demo of Apple’s iPhone. It is really amazing product of the year. I’m planning to get it this June
“iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.” — Apple’s Website
