SocialFolders is a new way to let you access to some famous social networking sites and cloud storage at once right from your PC. Currently it supports Box.Net, Evernote, Facebook, Flicker, Google Docs, Photobucket, Picasa, Twitter, YouTube and few other services. With itm you can upload and share images on Flickr, Box.net and Facebook, download all published picture from there and upload and download files from Google Docs. You can also upload videos to YouTube and download photos of Instagram and so more with this simple tools. Once you install SocialFolders, it will create a folder on Favorite just like Dropbox. From the moment when you connect a service compatible with SocialFolders, a local folder in that SocialFolders folder will be created on your computer. While connecting a service, it will ask you to choose which folders you want to add to user SocialFolders account. SocialFolders will then start downloading files on that folder in you computer. Each time you upload an image in an identical folder, it will automatically share it on that service and vice versa. This means that you can download and upload multiple files simultaneously without opening a browser and login accounts synchronized. The service provides automatic daily updates, but you can perform a manual sync at any time from the system tray icon. SocialFolders is available for Windows and Mac.
SocialFolders has an interesting concept. The program provides what is needed to upload and download files and images to different social networks in an automatic route. You can do everything manually, but the software also does the job alone well. It is the solution you need to work with Google Docs files offline or when you need to download all images shared by your or shared by your friends in Facebook. Another thoughtful feature is the synchronization between services. For example, you can have all your photos synchronized from Flickr to Facebook. SocialFolders is not an application for you to follow the tweets of your contacts or the status of your friends on Facebook. What it does is to facilitate the upload and download images and other files. You could also say that the focus of SocialFolders is to power up photo upload and management through different services. But you can also use as a backup service for your mostly use Cloud Service or Social Network.
