I probably do not need to explain to the readers of this
blog, what is Imgur, but in case you have not heard about this service, I would
definitely recommend exploring and using it for your purposes. It is the free
image hosting service, which was originally designed as a gift to the online
community of Reddit, but very rapidly outgrow its initial purpose, becoming one
of the most popular image hosting services on the Web.
I am using it for Reddit, Blogger, and some other
purposes, it is fast, reliable, free, and does not suck, as was promised by Alan
Schaaf, project developer, in 2009, at its birth (I mean Imgur, not Alan J).
Today, I would like to present not the Imgur service per
se, but the free tool, which helps you to use it better, faster, more
efficiently.
MyImgur is very handy capture and uploader tool for
Windows. Intuitive 1-click actions and simple settings to very quickly capture
areas of your screen or specific windows and send them to Imgur for sharing, or
select a few files from your computer and drag them to Imgur to have them sent
in a batch without any further actions. It is also the -only- desktop
application with full Imgur account support.
