Eye-Fi Enables Web Self Publishing

Eye-Fi is out with an API update this week that enables personal web publishing. Their clever WiFi-endowed SD card lineup has traditionally beamed one’s digital photos from the camera to a personal computer or photo sharing services in the cloud (Flickr, Picasa, etc). Now, the more technically savvy amongst us, have the opportunity to transmit photographs to their own Gallery 3 powered web site via Eye-Fi. From the email blast:

Eye-Fi has just made available a document that shows you how to use simple APIs to have the Eye-Fi card send photos & videos to your own site. This has been one of the most requested features.

Head on over to Eye-Fi’s Developer page or grab the PDF integration doc for inetegration details.

As for us, Mari remains an Eye-Fi proponent. Yet, I largely moved on once Apple’s Macbook line received the SD card slot treatment… and given Eye-Fi’s questionable blogger outreach.

(Thanks for the tip, Jon!)
