Photos was a photo sharing service launched on March 28, 2000 and owned by Yahoo!, designed specifically for Yahoo!
Users were also able to set access of their albums by publishing them for the viewing pleasure of everyone, disabling access, or marking them as private folders for their own viewing.
In an effort to make it simpler and more efficient, Yahoo had an uploader tool to drag and drop the pictures from one's computer to Yahoo!
Photos issued a press release stating that it would be terminating on September 20, 2007, in order to focus their efforts on Flickr.
