2Pad Creates a Gallery From Photos and Videos in Your Email (video)
by Allen Stern on September 12th, 2008
2Pad is an Israeli company that is attempting to make finding and sharing photos and videos stuck inside your email easier. 2Pad searches through your email, finds the photos and videos and then adds them to your 2Pad gallery. Inside of the 2Pad gallery, you can share the media with others.
Their business model consists of two pieces. First images can be printed into tshirts, hats, etc. and 2Pad gets a percentage of the sale. Second the larger your gallery, the more you pay for the hosting.
2Pad uses Amazon S3 and EC2 for storage and server processing. Here’s 2Pad cofounder Aaron Boublil explaining how 2Pad works:
I believe snapfish also provides printing photos on coffee mugs and t-shirts. However, after browsing through the 2pad website, I have a faint feeling that this will be a bit faster and uncluttered unlike snapfish!? Correct me if ‘m wrong!
