Atomique: a photo repository for decentralized and distributed photo sharing on the web

Photo sharing sites such as Flickr [3] and Fotolog [4] allow users to publish, organize, and explore photos in a community context combining sharing, annotation, and conversation. However, most hosted communities have architectural and institutional shortcomings due to their usually centralized nature. Users have little or no control over the community's policies, functionality, or appearance. The social data, such as contacts, comments, and group activity, are locked within a community, while it is usually not possible to interact with users from other communities. In this work we introduce Atomique a Web-based software enabling decentralized photo sharing by using open data formats and protocols from the blogosphere, i.e., RSS and Trackback, allowing exchange and discussion of photos in decentralized groups.
