Clever New Ways to Share Your Photos

Summer may be fading away, but your vacation memories don't have to.

Same goes for almost any other photos you still have sitting in your computer or digital camera.

On "The Early Show," BehindTheBuy.com Senior Editor David Gregg shared creative, new picture-perfect ideas to help you share your photos - and display them for your own pleasure!

They run the gamut from new types of digital frames to innovative takes on digital greeting cards, and much more.

Kodak Photo Kiosks

There are over 100,000 of these located throughout the country (in stores, pharmacies, etc.). They're really user-friendly, and you can get your photos printed and create books, DVDs, etc. All you have to do is insert your memory card or CD into the provided slot, and away you go.

It doesn't take too long, and you get to create the book from start to finish. Whether you want to create a book for a wedding, baby book, anniversary, travel or any other purpose, you can choose from a large selection of Photo Book styles and designs.

Pandigital Photo Mail Digital Photo Frame

This has all the bells and whistles of the others, but what sets this one apart is that it's capable of wirelessly receiving photos from anywhere in the world. It has its own, dedicated e-mail address built-in, so you can give to family and friends and they can send photos directly to the frame - no PC required. Once you receive the photos via e-mail, you can quickly accept and view them.

The frame holds 300 e-mails and still acts as a traditional digital photo frame, and accepts photos from media cards, digital cameras or PCs (it stores a whopping 6,400 photos). Since the frame uses cellular service, there are no WiFi configurations to set up and worry about. There are also no ongoing service fees.

Just like the digital frame we just saw, this printer also has its own e-mail address. So you can e-mail any photo or document to this printer from anywhere in the world, and it prints it out! It basically enables the sender to deliver a print (picture or document) the same way he or she would send an e-mail message. Customers can also send documents to print through an HP ePrint mobile app on their smartphone device to a home, office or public print location, such as a hotel or FedEx Office store. Customers will be able to send Microsoft Office documents, Adobe PDFs and JPEG image files, among others.
