Tips and Tricks: Using Photo Stream (iOS 6.0)

iOS 6 has so many new and intriguing features, you may not even be aware of them all, let alone use them all. Here's one of our most-loved features...

How to share your Photos

Photo Stream is one of my favorite iOS 6 features. It does two things: (1) It allows you to send your photos and videos to all your devices so you can find your fave snaps at all times. But it does even more than that. (2) You can set up multiple streams to share pics with specific friends or groups of friends and family using iOS devices. So let's get started with this very cool feature!

- First of all, head over to Settings to make sure Photo Stream is turned ON. Tap Photos & Camera, then toggle both My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams ON.

- Now tap the Photos icon/ Photo Stream / "+" and attach a Name of Contact

- Name your Stream anything you'd like, such as Fun Family Times in Fall 2012.

- Toggle Public Website Off or On, although I keep mine toggled off. No need for the world to see my family or best friend pics via iCloud.com.

- Once you've set up the above Stream, your friend whom you've chosen will be invited. You can even Add more people to join this same communication line, or just use it to share photos with one special person! Create as many Streams as you'd like.

- You can now pick photographs from your album or snap more of them, tap to select, tap Photo Stream and then the name of the stream (friend) to which you'd like your pics attached.

- You'll see in the Photo Stream tab on your display all your various subscribers along with a photo count. See the name of your stream, as well as who's sharing the pics. For example, Kids - Shared by Me, Happy Days - Shared by Bob, you name it! That stream subscriber will instantly get a notification that you've attached a photo and can comment on it in the little speech bubble provided, or even Like the photo, just as you do on Facebook.

COOL CONCLUSION:

Using this photographic open line of communication is quick, easy, private, fun and gets your pics out to multiple parties where everyone can comment on and like it as well, without using up your text quota or data!

Hours after news of their royal engagement broke, Prince William and bride-to-be Kate Middleton appeared for the first time as an engaged couple during a photo call at St. James's Palace – and her ring was on view.
According to an official statement from the office of the father of the groom-to-be, Prince Charles, the two, both 28, "became engaged in October during a private holiday in Kenya."
While no official wedding date has been announced, the two are expected to marry in the spring or summer of next year.
"Everyone is absolutely delighted," an old friend tells PEOPLE. "He has never had eyes for any other woman since Kate came on the scene. She is going to make a wonderful wife, a wonderful princess."
