So, 4 months after I started, I am finally getting around to my review of Fotothing.com and Basecamp. Why has it taken me 4 months? Because, of course, I fell in love with flickr instead. I love it to death, and it has completely consumed all other free time that I had previously devoted to web surfing. It's the best of everything. Ever. That being said, fotothing.com is a great service, and a true competitor in functionality and spirit to the market leader, fotolog.net. The upload limits are very manageable, the pageloads are blazing fast, the commenting system is fully functional (you can track comments you made), and the community is very small and very tight knit. It's also much more international, and not in a bad cam-girl sort of way. The free part of the site (they may have added a paid part since I last checked) was fantastic, and were it not for flickr I would be using it non-stop. In fact, for the first half of January, until flickr got their systems in order, it was my preferred photosharing site. It's not flashy, it gets the job done, and the people rock. If you're looking for a smaller pond and more comments, then this is the place for you. Basecamp is fantastic. Like all project management software, its usefulness is only as good as the amount of effort you're willing to invest in it. If you can't muster the energy to update it on a regular basis, or actually track what you're tracking, you don't need a software solution, you need a business process solution. But if you're looking for a simple cheap project solution, then this bad boy is for you. There are some limitations. It would be great to get a more robust calendar rather then the stripped down Milestones they offer. It would be nicer to get a little most contrl over permissions, such as setting what contractors can or cannot see. A simple 3 level thing, like: clients only, clients and contractors, employees (all). To Do Lists are still a little rudamentary, and you can't attach an individual to do item to a milestone. But overall, especially if you are a small business, this solution kicks some serious ass. I've convinced my day job to give it a try, and use it for my silly side projects. You should at least give it a serious look. And now that's out of the way, I can begin a new even stupider project at last.
