Facebook Makes A Huge Data Grab By Promoting Photo Sync



 Facebook  just quietly launched Photo sync cloud. This will allow them to to increase the amount of photos you can upload at a time ( they currently recieve over 300 million photos a day that users upload).

This photo sync will store all your images in what’s essentially free storage space of up to 2GB  and push them public when you so choose want one. 

Facebook had users  sign up by posting a  banner atop the the news feed of its iOS and Android apps which could easily get tens of millions of users to enable photo sync. If its competitors in social networking and now cloud storage don’t realize what’s happened, they won’t be able to react. But Facebook just found a way to to get its next 219 billion photos a lot faster than the first.
