Facebook Flips The Switch On Its Improved Photo Uploader

It's no secret that Facebook Photos is massively popular, with the company boasting that it receives a whopping 2.5 billion photos uploaded every month. And as the site continues to grow â€" it just passed 400 million users â€" that number is only going to get more staggering. Unfortunately, the photo uploading experience hasn't always been smooth; you've to wait for the photo uploads to finish, and the entire process was just sort of clunky. Today, the company announced that it's rolling out an improved photo upload browser plugin. The new plugin includes a new photo navigator that should make it easy to choose the photos you want. And once you've started the upload process, you can browse to another page â€" the plugin will keep uploading the files in the background.
