A feature release from MySpace? Yep, really! MySpace is rolling out two new features tonight: photo albums and a multi-photo uploader. Although it's hard to believe a leading social network didn't have these features previously, they're nonetheless welcome additions.
The multi-uploader, which you can see in the photo management section, seems to be Flash-based, while the size limit has increased from 600KB to 1200 KB per photo. The albums, meanwhile, finally add some structure to your photo collection by allowing you to group images. However, I doubt the external photo hosts should be worried: ImageShack and Photobucket continued to grow like crazy despite MySpace's decision to allow unlimited uploads.
