Media Street has created a platform called LifeGoRound that serves as a content portal for its eMotion Social Connect digital frame, an 8-inch Wi-Fi-enabled display priced at $149. The LifeGoRound platform enables you to view photos stored at sharing sites like Facebook, Flickr, Picasa, Photobucket, and Walmart.

….I have been using the eMotion frame on my desk, and it’s almost like having a second display for monitoring Facebook, Twitter, and RSS feeds. Media Street has a few kinks to work out, but the LifeGoRound platform and eMotion frame are a fun way to go social and share photos.

Speakers:

Mike Schroepfer, VP Engineering, Facebook

Kara Swisher, Co-Executive Director, AllThingsDigital

Once again, just before the holidays, the Churchill Club presents Walt Mossberg, influential personal technology columnist for the Wall Street Journal, together with Kara Swisher, co-producer and co-host with Mossberg of the popular “All Things Digital” conference, and Greg Harper, president of Harpervision Associates and co-founder of Gadgetoff, with their annual gadget show-and-tell. This year’s “tech geek” special guests are Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook’s COO, and Mike Schroepfer, Facebook’s VP of Engineering. Whether it’s cameras, ebooks, smart phones, or the coolest gadgets you’ve never heard of—Walt, Kara, Greg, Sheryl and Mike will reveal their latest and greatest favorite consumer tech products: which ones they consider worth the money and which ones are over-rated. These folks are not afraid to name names.

Sheryl Sandberg and Mike Schroepfer showcase the eMotion Social-Connect Digital Frame as a cool “wireless” way to send your Facebook photos to a Digital Photo Frame.

When Norm Levy met with Mike Schroepfer, “Schrep”, as he is known in the industry, applauded Norm and his company for a job “well done” integrating Facebook-connect into the new LifeGoRound platform for sending Facebook photos to a Digital Photo Frame (such as the eMotion Social-Connect).

LifeGoRound – For the Ride of Your Life; In Photos, Videos and Tweets

LifeGoRound is a new-media “sharing” and “delivery” platform. LifeGoRound aggregates all of your online (Facebook, Picasa, Flickr, Photobucket, Walmart, Youtube, Twitter) content as well as your offline photos and ALL of the content that you ADD to your LifeGoRound automatically appears on a LifeGoRound-compliant device, such as the new “eMotion Social-Connect Digital Photo Frame”, iPhone, mobile device, etc.

LifeGoRound is the solution for the age-old digital photography problem of how to allow everyone who snaps photos at a common event (such as the kids soccer games, or at the family Thanksgiving gathering) using different cameras, to ALL enjoy the photos taken. Simply create a “Group” in LifeGoRound and everyone can drag and drop photos onto the “Group” for ALL to enjoy! And, the “shared” photos also magically appear on our Frame:-)
