How often have you returned from a vacation and wanted to show friends and family a photo slideshow?
Chances are, unless your photos are wildly funny or Ansel Adams-esq in quality, your audience probably wants to spend time with you enjoying a meal instead of reliving your vacation, one photo at a time, as a group.
The folks at Mashable found a new social photo sharing network called The Bragosphere. The Bragosphere functions as a digital scrapbook – but without the silly little stickers. It’s a great way to share photos with friends and family to view on their own and in a way that’s easy to digest – especially if you went a little shutter happy and have a lot of them.
It also offers tagging options for Digg, Del.icio.us, Reddit, Facebook, and elsewhere for easy distribution.
The only speed bump to using The Bragosphere is a required Microsoft Silverlight plug-in. Consider it just another download necessary for modern computing.
If you have a few issues early on, go easy on The Bragosphere – they’re still in beta testing. However, this is a good service with a lot of potential.

The site doesn’t seem to like FireFox 3 as it shuts down the program after after about 2 seconds on the site. Must be a Microsoft conspiracy.
