The software application, which is still in beta phase, will provide WAYN’s nine million members with a state-of-the-art photo upload tool (which synchronises with the user’s WAYN account to allow for fast and simple photo uploading).

According to the company, with unlimited photo and video storage available to WAYN members, users are now able to utilise WAYN desktop as their main photo storage facility both on their desktop and on the site. Users can edit, name and tag their photos plus connect them to specific trips or albums. It added: “This initiative puts WAYN.com amongst the few social networking services that has developed a downloadable desktop application to compliment its online offerings, which include the ability to log trips, see who is where and make new friends, as well as many other trip planning and communication tools.”

Co-founder and Co-CEO of WAYN.com, Jerome Touze said, “We’re excited to be launching WAYN Desktop as a free service to all our members. This follows feedback from our members who said they would like to store all of their photos in one place plus get account alerts in a few easy steps without having to spend all day doing it. Now all WAYN members can share their memorable experiences online in a few simple steps whilst also keeping up to date with their account.”
