PicUp

I am happy to introduce PicUp, a very simple way to swap pictures with people attending an event without giving out any personal details such as email address.

Using PicUp

When attending an event, browse to http://picup.drori.me on your mobile phone and generate an event code. Next, get people with cameras to take a picture of your phone's screen displaying the code.

After downloading the pictures from the camera to the computer, to upload pictures and see pictures uploaded by other participant, browse to http://picup.drori.me from your computer, click the 'Share and download' button and pick the picture with the code.

Pointers:

• When you get your screen photographed for the code, make sure the website name and 4 code groups are readable. This way you can be sure that the photographer will get to the right event folder even if the QR code cannot be automatically decoded.
• Full size pictures will be archived after a while. You can still get the pictures using credits, so get in early after the event.
• You can embed the code in an invite / poster for an event for people to photograph.
• Do not treat PicUp as a picture hosting website like Facebook or Picasa. Once you download the pictures you want, add them to your favorite site.

This was not a one man job, +Amit Feller is my partner in this crime, doing most of the work when he is suppose to sleep or party or whatever young kids do these days.
