EMERYVILLE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Announced today, Fotobabble allows people to add voice to photos in seconds with just a few clicks on a web browser or an iPhone.

Free to use, it only takes seconds to create and share a “Fotobabble.” Simply upload a photo and record your voice directly through your computer’s microphone to create a talking photo. On your iPhone, after downloading the free Fotobabble app, select an existing photo or a snap a new one, hit record and you’re done. Whether using a computer or your iPhone, you can share talking photos via e-mail, Facebook, Twitter, or embed them into a blog or website.
Fotobabble for Fun & Communication:
The possibilities of what you can do with talking photos are endless, whether it’s to add life to photos you upload on Facebook, send talking greetings to Grandma from your kids’ birthday party, capture a funny or touching moment experienced with friends, send a picture to your spouse with your voice describing the perfect couch for the living room, include your voice in a home-made greeting card, or send talking postcards from a vacation.
Imagine being on safari and sending a photo to a friend – captioned with your voice – that truly captures the excitement you felt the moment you first saw a lion? How unique and fun it would be to have talking photo status updates within Twitter and Facebook?
