Everpix The Photo Sharing & Backup Solution To Close

Everpix came to light as a photo backup solution that would automatically upload your photos to their server for storage for free. What made Everpix different is that it would store your photos one year back from the current date, unless you subscribed for a longer storage period.

It is with a heavy heart we announce that Everpix will be shutting down in the coming weeks.

We started this company two years ago with the goals of solving the photo mess and designing better ways for people to enjoy their memories. We are very proud of the work we’ve done—from the cutting-edge semantic analysis and syncing technology, right down to every pixel on our website and mobile apps.

What happened!?

We were unable to secure sufficient funding in order to properly scale the business, and our endeavors to find a new home for Everpix did not come to pass.

We are heartbroken to discontinue Everpix. It’s a project that is very close to each and every one of us on the team. We cannot be more thankful to all of our customers who supported us over the years. We hope you’ve enjoyed Everpix. We will miss it dearly.

You will be able to sign into your Everpix account via www.everpix.com until December 15th, 2013, to browse, download specific photos, and retrieve your photo collection archive.

Parallels Desktop 9 Supports Windows 8.1 and Windowed Apps But It’s Not Cheap

VM ware fusion was my choice over parallels for the longest time but Parallels Desktop 8 won out due to lower cost. You can upgrade to version 9 of parallels for $49.99 instead of $79.99 which seems a lot in my eyes.

Parallels 9 bring support for the up coming windows 8.1 release along with support for windowed apps.

Other new features in Parallels Desktop 9 include support for syncing up to cloud services like iCloud, Dropbox, Google Drive, and SkyDrive, along with improvements to the Virtual Machine Wizard and more.

For those of you like me who picked up the version 8 price as part of a Machiest bundle won’t be too upset at the cost of updating to version 9. Quite how well something as heavy (relatively speaking when compared to windows xp) works on a mid range mac is to be seen.

Buyers will get a free six month subscription to Parallels Access for the iPad, the remote desktop program that was launched earlier this week.

The full version will be available to new customers on www.parallels.com/desktop starting Sept. 5, 2013. Packaged software will also be available starting Sept. 5 at Apple retail stores, Apple.com, Amazon.com, and at other re-sellers and retail locations worldwide.
