Group Photo Books

Group Story is centered around building photo books collaboratively with other people who photographed the same event. Thus it is a great application for teams and camps. For example, the parents of a little league team could pool photographs together and create a photo book documenting the baseball season.

Each person tells their "story" with as many pages of photos and text as they want. Each person decides which pages to include in their customized Group Story Book. Digital copies of the book are shared online with friends and family at no cost. High-quality color photo book versions start at under $15 per copy.

You do need a group administrator to get the ball rolling, but other than handling the invites they don't have any heavy lifting to do. The group administrator concept allows Group Story to address the privacy issues of who can see the photos for a group.
