Palo Alto, Calif. (PRWEB) April 3, 2008 — Box.net, a leading provider of online file storage and collaboration tools, announced today that it has partnered with ShoZu to enable consumers to quickly and easily send photos and videos captured on their mobile devices to their Box.net online storage accounts. Through the partnership, Box.net becomes the premier storage system for users of ShoZu's service.
Shozu provides fast and easy uploads of content from mobile devices to the leading Web services ranging from YouTube and Flickr, while simultaneously storing the media on Box.net as well. Photos and videos sent to Box.net from ShoZu can be easily organized, edited, accessed and shared from any web-enabled device. Users can manage and share information stored on Box.net online or from Box.net's mobile sites (m.box.net for BlackBerrys and smartphones, and i.box.net for iPhones), simplifying on-the-go file management and collaboration.
"As mobile phones and social networking are now ubiquitous, enhanced tools are required to manage the increased flow of information. The addition of Box.net's service to the ShoZu platform provides users with a safe, secure way to permanently store and access their data," said Karen Appleton, VP of Business Development, Box.net. "We're excited to provide ShoZu users with an easy tool to manage media created on their devices."
In addition to providing online file storage, Box.net has also created a powerful collaborative environment for its more than 1.6 million registered users. Recent feature launches include collaboration (beta) which enables users to share folders with colleagues, friends, and family; version history for any file on Box.net (premiums accounts only); and the OpenBox platform, which connects data from Box.net to other web-based applications and services like Zoho, Scribd, eFax, Echosign, and more.
ShoZu, the leader in wireless image publishing capabilities to multiple online destinations, is also the only service of its kind that allows users to upload the photos of their choice at either full or blog-quality resolution, send video clips up to 10 minutes in length, and allows users to add tags, title and descriptions from their mobile devices.
