Recommend a blog / page for posting pics and videos

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Hi All,

My brother and his wife, who are not very IT literate, wish to upload
pics and videos of their 2 yo daughter for friends and family back in
England (they live in Australia) - since most the family arn't IT literate
either, they don't use stuff like facebook to stay in touch with people.

Can anyone recommend a portal/site that allows you to post your
videos and pics so that anyone can see them on the internet, without
having to 'subscribe' or login to such a facility? It has to be quite
easy to use. Also, do you think there are significant privacy concerns
with such a site? Thanks all

I use www.vox.com to blog - it's dead easy, you can link and import pictures from Flickr and PhotoBucket. What's really good is that you can limit access to your stuff to different groups - this might be worth considering if you're posting pictures of the family, especially kids - there are some freaks out there and you never know, right?

It doesn't meet your criteria for not having to log in - you do need to create an account - but it's all free, and like I say, super easy.

Plain old PhotoBucket seems pretty straightforward, but then I can't really make a recommendation cos I'm an IT head myself.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
