Sure it's good to be able to browse images for many, many reasons but lets be honest here at least 95% of images that people upload are just garbage. Perhaps we need quality control but there again it is the internet and more than 95% of content is just cr&p. Personally I share very few images online as they get abused.

Photobucket stores image-based media, then distributes it to your page on social networking sites such as Myspace, Bebo, Piczo, Friendster, etc. Fotolog is a destination where you post one image a day which then becomes the center of a social interaction/chat with your friends.
