Setting off with 500px

After reading about it in PCPro I thought I would give 500px a try as it is being touted as an alternative to flickr. It's been very easy to get started and I already have an account with an avatar uploaded and a couple of photographs.

I have noticed a lot of content marked as premium which is fine as the service looks to be fairly cheap. I will be interested to see what interaction I can have with the site from Android however.

I have noticed that EXIF type information isn't appearing along with my photographs and I was a little worried about the 30Meg upload limit / image. Perhaps it's superior formatting would make it a good place to exhibit photographs I am particularly proud of.

The blogging facility is an interesting development and I'll be trying it again.

Have fun.
