Adobe Photoshop Express Public Beta

Announced March 27, 2008, Adobe Photoshop Express Beta is a new web-based online photo service for storing, sorting, editing, and showing off digital photos. The service is free and offers 2 GB of online storage. It runs in a web browser using the Flash player which means anyone on any platform can use it (though a broadband internet connection is recommended). For its initial public launch, Photoshop Express is now available for US residents, in English, but will be expanded to a global audience later.

Unlike many photo-sharing services, Photoshop Express was designed as a "complete experience" where you can not only store and share your photos, but also edit them with a collection of 17 tools and effects. In addition, it can integrate with other online photo services such as Picasa, Facebook, and Photobucket.

I've spent several hours exploring Photoshop Express in detail, and have assembled an illustrated tour of this new free service.
