Sony ImageStation Obituary

ImageStation bites the dust. On an otherwise sunny and pleasant morning, Sony gives us the sad news. ImageStation is formally a failure. I always find their logo strange, like a red pepper? R.I.P. ImageStation. What follows is ImageStation's obituary via email. Actually nobody really cares as nobody uses it except one of my friends.

Dear [redacted],

On February 1st, 2008 Sony will close the ImageStation® online photo service. The closure will happen in phases and most site features such as upload, sharing and shopping will be disabled on November 12th 2007.

We sincerely appreciate your being an ImageStation member and we want to help you find a new home for your images, so we've worked with the online photo service Shutterfly. Together we've made it easy to transfer your pictures to Shutterfly so you can take advantage of their online storage, sharing, prints and photo gifts. If Shutterfly isn't for you, that's OK-we've put together several ways to reunite you with your images. Just click on the link below to review all your options.

Please choose the option(s) that is right for you before February 1st, 2008 because at that time the ImageStation web site will be permanently closed and any images left behind will be deleted.

Sincerely,

The ImageStation team

Civil War (2024)

This is basically a Dorothy yellow brick road kind of story.  Also, something to do with the new replaces the old, the circle of life thing....
