“The Mac is a great platform for managing digital photos and video, and Phanfare is the best way to share digital albums, so we’re excited to bring the two together,” said Adam Stein, vice president of marketing for Phanfare, Inc. “People have been amazed at how easy it is to share their photos and videos using Phanfare, and we are very excited to extend the power of Phanfare to Mac users. We’re the only complete package offering Mac and PC users the ability to organize, edit, and share their photos and video.”
