Android tip: Sharing photos to Facebook and Picasa

A lot of the UI on Android is sort of hidden, but it’s really powerful.  Here’s how to share photos to FaceBook or Picasa.

  1. Use the camera to take a photo.
  2. After taking the photo, a small version of it will appear in the upper right corner, tap on that.
  3. You should have a few options appear, one of which is “Share”.  Tap on that.
  4. Select how you want to share the photo, each of which will have it’s own UI for sharing.  I like FaceBook.
  5. Add a caption in FaceBook and click “Upload”
  6. Done!

A very similar process works for sharing videos onto YouTube as well!

    I did the steps above and it did not upload. Several attempts are now sitting in the status bar at 0% and I cannot delete them. What to do?

    You can upload your photo directly from the camera using Micasa: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.imprologic.micasa.

    You can share your photos on websites such as Flickr, Picasa, Photobucket, Photodom and Sualize with the Android based Photo Explorer app.
