jefe here. The Blogosphere is still on fire. The tragic part about PhoBuc (or Faux Foto) is how many blogs like this one, small and large have been affected. A lot of time and effort will eventually go down the drain with no interest in a complete rebuild. As a user of the upgrade, 'no adds' level at PhoBuc, I've posted a lot of scenic trip reports, here and on the truck camper forum on RV.net using our trusty XTC. The black postage stamp of doom has across the board replaced many wonderfully illustrated how-too's and trip reports. The only thing remaining will be the ill will.
The question is, where to go next? How many 3rd party Photo storage sites are waiting, slackjawed, to see what the fall out will be surrounding PhoBuc? If Phobuc is successful at winnowing the bandwidth sucking, non or low price users from their site and all is well, expect many of the other sites to follow suit. So, the question remains: where do we go from here? I don't know. I have a dropbox account that is almost full and requires an upgrade fee to continue adding storage space. At least one would have more control over the dispensation of pix in a 3rd party setting. 'Tis a quandary.
