Shutterfly Launches Shutterfly Share Sites

Photo sharing service Shutterfly has announced the public launch of Shutterfly Share Sites today. Rather than sharing individual photos or photo sets, Share Sites allows you to create a page around an event (e.g. birth of baby, wedding, launch of a startup, etc.).

Share Sites is basically a mini photo blog with features including a gallery, comments, privacy options, forums, polls, weather information, etc.

There are a variety of templates or you can setup your own. I like this concept and it should hit the sweet spot for the mainstream audience that Shutterfly caters to. 

The Shutterfly Share Sites service has been in private beta for the last few months and over 60,000 Share Sites have been created to-date.
