Facebook vs. Orkut in Photo sharing

Category: How Products benefit users Add comments

I admit that what kept me on Facebook for so long is its ability to host photos. I’m really happy how Photos and Photo upload work in Facebook.

The only thing I don’t like about it is that it auto-resizes photos to 604px width.

I don’t use MySpace, unfortunately.

The third most popular social networking site is Orkut, and I have some friends there.

I’ll just make a comparison on my most frequently used feature: Photo sharing.

Service Quantity Limit Capacity Limit Resize Allowed formats Tagging
Facebook Unlimited albums
60 photos per album
None Width 604px JPG, PNG, GIF Yes,
with better usability
Orkut 10,000 photos
100 photos per album
None Width 800px JPG, PNG, GIF Yes
