Easily View
Photos on a TV Screen
Aplus.Net joins forces with TiVo to provide an easy means
of viewing digital photos
Aplus.net Press Release Summary:
San Diego, CA – March 29th, 2006 - Aplus.Net is the first
company to fully integrate its photo storage service,
Web-a-Photo™ (
www.web-a-photo.com), with a TiVo® Digital Video Recorder.
With this new development, TiVo users can now view all of their
photos stored online on their television screen. Photos can be
rotated, zoomed, e-mailed, and ordered, all via TiVo remote.
Slide show mode is also available.
The new TiVo enabled Web-a-Photo service is intended to provide
TiVo users with a more convenient way of viewing their photos
and sharing photos with family and friends. The service enables
users to view their photos on a television screen without the
hassle of digital camera equipment. This means that the user has
access to his/her photos at all times and the ability to display
them on a large screen anywhere with a TiVo connection.
Furthermore, the service is excellent for large gatherings,
since a PC screen is too confining as a photo viewing source.
"Aplus.Net takes pride in introducing ground-breaking services
like this one to our customers," commented Ivan Vachovsky CEO
and President of Aplus.Net. "Viewing photos on a 50" or even
100" plasma television screen can be very exciting, particularly
if it is easy to do – no cables, converters, adapters, etc..
With our new service, users have the freedom to manage photos by
simply using a TV remote. Our engineers weighted many options
when creating this service and I am very glad that we chose to
use the TiVo system, as it really stands above the competition
with respect to ease of use."
Uploading photos to Web-a-Photo is very simple, even for a
computer non-expert. A user downloads the free Web-a-Photo
client and sets up a free Web-a-Photo account at
www.web-a-photo.com. Once this is done, the software will
automatically recognize almost any camera or any media card
reader and will start the upload automatically. Once the system
is in place, the user can use the TiVo remote control to view
hundreds of photos, e-mail these photos to friends, order
prints, and more.
The new TiVo enabled Web-a-Photo service is available in Beta
version free of charge at the Web-a-Photo website,
www.web-a-photo.com. Aplus.Net hosting customers with Solo XR
plans and above get a bonus Web-a-Photo account with their
package. To learn more about Aplus.Net, visit www.aplus.net .
