I'm traveling (French Alps!) this summer and want to upload photos via wifi. Everything I've tried seems uber-slow -- flickr, picasa, DropBox. Am I missing something? Is there any good free or cheap online storage that doesn't seem to take half a minute per photo?

Seems to me that it's your internet connection. I usually have no problems uploading to Flickr when my connection is strong.

What Bryan said. I have over 76,000 photos on flickr. I wouldn't have stuck with it that long if it took a half a minute per photo to upload. Of course if you have a slow or unreliable internet connection all bets are off on probably any on line service.

The bottleneck is the connection. Unless you are only talking about a very few photos forget it unless you don't mind spending half your vacation uploading. I just took one of these (and a tablet) to Scotland last year. Plenty of room for other stuff besides photos. Books, maps, etc.

Panoramio still works, I think. I've mostly switched to Fliickr for photos and Vimeo for videos...
