Thailand Coup D'etat As Military Seize Control
Microstock photography service Fotolia has released Fotolia Instant for Android to let you monetize the photos you take on your smartphone. Let’s be honest, sometimes you take a sweet photo with your phone and you think, “I could totally sell this.” Fotolia agrees, and that’s why it created its Instant collection last year with the release of an iOS app. Since then, Fotolia claims to have sold over 50,000 smartphone images. Fotolia CEO Oleg Tscheltzoff said in a statement that Instant started off as an “experiment,” but the initiative has far exceeded expectations. Using Fotolia Instant is straight-forward.

The handiwork of Deezer co-founder Jonathan Benassaya, StreamNation launched to the world in July last year, serving as a platform that lets you stream and share videos and photos directly from the cloud. Back in November, StreamNation made an interesting move by letting its users upload their own DRM-free (ripped, basically) movies and TV shows to their account, and then lend them to friends and family. Now StreamNation has launched a new standalone companion camera app for iPhone called Shutter, delivering infinite, unlimited media storage by automatically storing photos and videos to StreamNation’s cloud-based servers.

BeamIt-Feat
Cooliris is a service that puts photos from multiple social networks in a single place — and now it has branched out into messaging with the launch of a new app, BeamIt. The new app comes after Cooliris gradually started placing more emphasis on messaging features. To avoid bloating the main app with too many features, the company decided to launch a separate app instead, and thus BeamIt was born. A Cooliris spokesperson tells TNW: Cooliris solves the problem of having photos scattered all over the place and getting them organized in one app — think of it as your photo…

AUSTRIA-ART-PHOTOGRAPHY-AUCTION-LEICA
Trunx, a cloud-based photo sharing and storage app, has now officially launched its apps for iOS and Android devices, promising to make keeping track of, storing and sharing photos a cinch. First launched in beta a little under six months ago, Trunx is entering an already saturated space – there’s already Dropbox’s Carousel and others like Bitcasa which offer similar cloud-oriented functionality, among many more – but the company is hoping to make a splash in the market by offering completely unlimited free storage for your images and videos, at least initially.
