I love sharing my pictures with my friends and family on Facebook and Flickr, but getting my pictures from my camera to online can sometimes be such a pain. The pictures end up sitting on my camera for months until I forget about them.
I was thrilled when I was contacted to do a review for the Eye-Fi Memory Card. This tiny little gadget just may change your life! Eye-Fi looks just like a standard sd card and fits any sd camera. But this sd card has a little secret trick……it has a wifi transmitter! What does that mean exactly? It means no cords or card reader needed to get your pictures on your computer or even online!!
Let me give you a scenario……….You’re having your child’s birthday party at your house, you’ve already installed Eye-Fi on your computer (super duper easy) and you have the Eye-Fi memory card in your camera. You take a few shots of pin the tail on the donkey, set the camera down, turn it on, and Eye-Fi will load your pictures right to Facebook for you, while you get the cake ready to serve!
Take a few more pictures of the cake and your little cutie blowing out the candles, and Eye-Fi uploads them to Facebook while you lick chocolate cake off your fingers! How’s THAT for EASY!! Eye -Fi does all the work for you!
– The Eye-Fi memory card (SDHC) replaces your existing memory card but does a lot more: * Automatically organizes your photos & videos into date based folders * Saves you time by using your Wi-Fi network instead of hunting for cables or card readers * Your photos are already waiting for you – whether you want to print a photobook, scrapbook or share your favorites on your online site All you have to do is turn your camera on!!
What’s required to use an Eye-Fi card: 1.) Compatible SDHC camera (to check if your camera is compatible, please visit https://support.eye.fi/cameras) 2.) Wi-Fi network 802.11b/g/n 2.4Ghz 3.) Broadband Internet 4.) Windows XP/Vista/7 or Mac OS X 10.5 and up Watch the video to see how easy it is!

I take a bunch of pictures, but I, too, never find the time to upload them all to the computer. I’m getting ready to have my 2nd little girl in a week & this would make it SO much easier to get the pics on the computer to share with all our friends & family!
Okay!
This is AMAZING!
Plain and SIMPLE…amazing!
Uh~oh!
What if I take some pics and DON’t want them on FBook!
Ah….haha!
That would be just like something I would do!
xo
WHY do I want to win this??? Because I am hands down the worst at uploading pics and sharing them! I have a great camera and takes lots of pictures but I wait until my camera won’t hold one more pic before I am forced to upload them!!
I’d love to win!!
Wow! Technology! As a blogger, this would come in really handy! Thanks for a great giveaway!
OMG – I NEED NEED NEED this card! How fabulous would this be?
If for no other reason, than because I’m too dang lazy and hate getting the cord out – so much so that I don’t download my pictures until my card is full!
Thank You so Much for the opportunity!

Are you kidding?!? YES, I would love to win the Eye-Fi memory card! Amazing!!!! 🙂 Thanks for the opportunity!
Not sure if I can even begin to keep up with technology — but I’d like a chance to try with this awesome card !!! 🙂
What a genius idea!! Makes perfect sense! I’d love to use one of these as cards, for the absolue convenience!!
What a WONDERFUL idea! Now this grandmother can bore relatives and friends with a LOT more pics of her 6 grandkids LOL. So kind of you to have a giveaway like this! Thank you!
Oh my gosh, this would be fabulous! I, like you, end up waiting months to transfer my photos to my computer with a cable. This would be such a huge time saver. Thanks!
I ahve never heard of this but it would be a Godsend for my blog pictures!!!! Well, ANY pictures!!! Hope I am one of the winners:):) XO, Pinky
Oh my gosh, this seems too good to be true!!!
Uploading pictures has GOT to be the most annoying thing ever! I’d so happy to see that someone has finally come up with a great solution.
I’d love to win one!!
We will soon have a new baby and another adorable subject to take photos of. As a mom of two already and soon to have a newborn, I can totally see how this will be such a time saver. What an awesome, awesome product!
This is so awesome – I’d love to win this because it would make life so much easier!!
I can’t imagine how much time this would save! Amazing what can be done.
This would be a great way for me to load pics that will go on facebook in a hurry.

I have been looking for one of these for a while, but I haven’t decided to take the plunge. Winning one would be terrific!
I would use this all the time, mostly to upload pictures to my computer. I can’t even seem to find a cord, and when I do it just seems like such an ordeal that I just don’t do it….This would make me a much better blogger!
Who knew there even was such a wonderful thing!!!! I can only imagine a life without cords!
I’ve never heard of this before. What a time saver this would be if I had one. It’d be great not to have to take the disk out all the time to transfer to the computer; I’m always afraid I’m going to damage the sd disk somehow with all the back and forth. Thanks.
WOW! I need one of these in my life…like now! Never knew such a thing existed until just the other day. This would make my life so much more simple!
What an awesome idea!!!! I hope I am a lucky winner! This would be great for my trip to Argentina.
Like Jamie said, I never knew there was such a thing. This would be a lifesaver! I hate having tangled cords all over the place.
This is an answer to my prayers!!!
It’s quick, it’s easy, and your family can view a thousand miles away immediately!
Hello, answer is YOU HAD me at NO more wires!!

Wow! I knew there was a product on the market like this, but I haven’t been able to find it. Hooray! I am so excited and really hope that I win this! I know this sounds dramatic, but this product would change my life! 🙂
This is awesome! I would love to win this card for my Dad because he is the one who got me into photography when I was young. We ventured into digital photography together, and we both got our digital SLRs at the same time! However, we both suffer from taking hundreds of beautiful pictures and never printing or sharing them! Haha this would be the perfect solution 🙂
Wow! This is so neat!! I just got a new DSLR camera and this sure would be an amazing accessory to have….especially since I’ll be super busy with a new baby in June!
Wow! I have never heard of this! I would like this because I take photos often but then procrastinate in downloading them onto my computer!
Woohoo! I’ve not heard of this before! How amazing. My husband the techno geek will go coo coo bananas when I tell him about this. Course he probably already knows about it lol. He knows all the latest and greatest gadgets. But I’m thrilled! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the tip on this amazing little device that will simplify life. Like you, I let my photos sit in my camera for too long before transferring them. Have you heard the ad that says, “don’t let your kids grow up to be jpgs”? Everytime I hear it, I’m sure they’re talking to me! haha! Thanks for the chance to win also.
This sounds like it was made for me. I love to take the pictures, but getting them to the computer is another story.
I would LOVE to win one of these for my camera!
Wow this is an amazing idea. I can’t count the number of times my pictures have sat on my camera for long periods of time.
Thanks for the fyi.
Why do I need it? Well, now that I know it exists, I don’t think I can live without it!!!
i can fill up a memory card in one hour! i kid you not. having a wi-fi would be so awesome so i could go through & clean it out once it’s downloaded.
love this giveaway.
This little card looks like it’s BIG in function! I’m always having to download pics to my laptop AND to my desktop so the convenience Eye-Fi card is providing seems like an awesome time saver. Plus, if God forbid something were to happen to the camera (like dropping it in the pool, sigh!), at least your photos are already downloaded and safe.
What a fantastic product!! I would love to have one simply for the ease of use and to cut down on a smidge of the endless ‘cord clutter’.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Wow – I would love to win this! I am constantly taking pictures of my recipes and this would make life so much easier! Thanks for the giveaway 🙂
This is a fabulous invention! I would be so much more current in my uploads if I had one of these! If I don”t win it I will certainly buy it sometime soon.
I already own this wonderful card. Love it! Bought it when my boyfriend bought me a new camera for xmas.
I would love to have this clever card for my camera since I am always deleting pics to make room for more.

I would love to try this out! I am not good at posting pictures off my card. Due to pulling out and figuring which cords go with what. I think this would simply make it much easier to post pictures!!
Thanks for the chance!!
This would be a life changer for me! Pictures sit on my card for months (months!!) and I am always scared that when I put the card in my computer, I will somehow mess it all up and my pictures will be gone forever! This would give me such peace of mind – I hope I win!!
No more wires!!! What more can you ask for? I am always at my daughters taking pictures and then it is forever before I get them all downloaded, this is a dream come true.
I take TONS of pictures and then spend HOURS trying to upload them. I am the local youth pastor, plus a mom of three very involved kids. This would make things SO MUCH EASIER!
This is revolutionary!!!! Genius! I would LOVE to own one!
