I’ve been a fan of these guys ever since they hooked up their service to our Photo API CTP (its a preview!) – really slick service.

Today Eye.fi seems to be getting coverage on their announcement of a new products (Share/Explore & Home).

One of the things I think the previous product was missing was connecting to any wi-fi and being able to upload photos…. that is now possible! if you can get a clear signal on an open wifi connection your photos can be uploaded to the web, its really cool because youdon’t need to plug in your laptop to configure the hotspots.

Announcement is below (from their blog):

As you may have seen, we announced new products and new capabilities today at the O’Reilly Where 2.0 conference here in the San Francisco Bay Area. You can learn all about the products and services here on our freshly redesigned website and discover why an event all about the “geospatial web” is the right place for Eye-Fi to unveil where we’re headed. The new products will be available in the next few weeks.

Obviously we’re excited. The new products not only reflect some of what we heard from early users but are also another leap in what we set out to do with the first Eye-Fi Card. Simply put, we’re trying to help you manage, save and share your digital memories by making effortless what is otherwise a hassle. Today, all you have to do is turn on your camera and the Eye-Fi Card will automatically upload photos to your computer or share them to the web. Soon, the Eye-Fi Explore will add geotags to your photos to show where they were taken and allow you to upload from a Wi-Fi hotspot so you can save or share those memories on the go.

Of course, none of this is possible without a pretty sophisticated combination of the card’s wireless technology and our Internet systems. Yet, it remains as easy for the every-day photographer as the first Eye-Fi Card. As it should be.
