Latest Google acquisition might make it easier to share photos privately

Google has long been rumoured to be separating its photo service from its social network Google+. And they seem to be taking a step closer to making that a reality. Google just purchased Odysee, a mobile app designed to share photos privately. The app also lets you send your phone photos directly to your home PC. Nimbuz, the team behind the app, didn’t say what their plans are but they are joining the Google+ group. The purchase makes a lot of sense, especially if Google wants to develop a standalone platform for photos. We just have to wait and see then. Odysee has already been pulled from app stores and the service will be shut down on February 23.
