Abstract
A method and system for integrating web photo-services for a browser-enabled device is disclosed. The method and system include providing a server that communicates with a browser-enabled device over a network. Further, an image-related web application is provided to the device over the network, the web application executable on the device. The web application receives a list of images stored on the device from the device and a list of images stored at a remote location from the server. The method and system further include providing, by the web application, content combining the lists of images received from the device and the server, wherein the content is presentable on the device and includes an image reference for each image included in the combined lists of images and an indication of whether each image is stored on the device or at the remote location.
