Manton Reece and Jean MacDonald of Micro.blog and Jonathan Hays of Sunlit have joined forces to bring photo sharing to the Micro.blog service, and join us to talk about this new enhancement. In Part 1, Manton starts us off by discussing some of the newest features in the latest update to the social media/microblogging platform, and Jean explains why they haven’t had to implement heavy-handed security to keep the service a pleasant one to use. Jonathan then explains how Sunlit integrates with Micro.blog, how it is and isn’t similar to that other photo sharing service, and why you would want to take advantage of it. (Part 1 of 2)
