And just because they are your “Friends” in LifeGoRound, they will ONLY be able to see the specific photos and albums that you want to share with them.

All of your ONLINE and OFFLINE content that you ”add” to your LifeGoRound becomes a personal, customized FEED that streams autoMAGICALLY to a LifeGoRound-enabled device, such as a Digital Photo Frame and a mobile device.  Plus, we made LifeGoRound the simplest method to share your photos with friends and family.   By dragging a photo, album or video onto a friend or family connection in LifeGoRound makes it automatically appear in their LifeGoRound, in real-time!  This will also make the “shared” content magically appear on their Digital Frame or other connected device.

  • Any time you upload photos to ANY of your photo sharing sites including Facebook, your LifeGoRound account updates automatically!
  • You can Create or Join a “Group” for sharing common events such as the “kids soccer game”.  This allows all cameras that are taking photos at an event to share ALL photos with everyone at the event!  This also comes in very handy for your Superbowl gathering, just as anotehr example:-)
  • Enyoy watching your Tweets, your friends’ Facebook status updates, your local weather as photo slideshows. 
  •  You can also plug-in unlimted RSS feeds from any and all of your favorite sources of content: We scoured the internet for you to give you a head start: http://lifegoround.com/blog/rss-feeds/

We hope you enjoy a very long Ride:-) In Health, Happiness & Peace!
