Eye-Fi is a Wi-Fi enabled card that enables any usual digital camera to wirelessly upload photos and videos to the web and your computer. Usually, one would copy photos on a memory card over to a computer, and then upload images to their much loved picture sharing sites such as Flickr. The product aims to reduce some of those steps. It’s simple, once setup properly, and snap a photo and images will automatically be uploaded straight from your digital camera to just about any media sharing service.

It’s simple to modify the way your media is handled. Unlike the WiFi setup, where you need to actually insert it into a computer, most of the other settings are managed through Eye-Fi website. The web interface allows you to view media, enable geo-tagging, view geographical locations of photos on a map, and set upload notifications. It’s simple to enable uploading to photo sharing services such as Facebook, Flickr, Picasa, and a few more. And that’s not it, there’s a lot more.

For the majority part, the Eye-Fi can minimize the hassle of sharing and saving media. But it’s still a proprietary technology even though it uses a standardized WiFi network. It’s especially great for those who take a lot of photos in only a few locations.
