Fotopedia was a photo encyclopedia that, as of August 2011, had generated more than 51,000 pages and linked to over 755,000 photos. Fotopedia was launched in June 2009 by five former Apple employees: Jean-Marie Hullot, Bertrand Guiheneuf, Manuel Colom, Sébastien Maury and Olivier Gutknecht. Members could create photo-driven articles which include Wikipedia and Google Maps information. They were able to add a limited number of photos per day resulting in a high quality selection of photos.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fotopedia: An Online Encyclopedia for Photos )〕 The range of topics varied widely from precise locations, music bands or species to countries and famous people.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Help - Fotopedia )〕 As well as taking part in the encyclopedia, professional and amateur photographers on Fotopedia could create albums to display their works, use Wikipedia articles to add context and to advertise popular albums.〔 Fotopedia also had several social networking features, such as a profile page and ability to interact with other users and content.〔 Fotopedia supported Creative Commons licenses, enabling photos to be reused throughout the encyclopedia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fotopedia Creates a Wikipedia-Inspired Online Photo Encyclopedia )〕 Joi Ito, CEO of Creative Commons, was a board member. On July 31, 2014, Fotopedia announced it would be discontinued. Users had until August 10, 2014 to retrieve their data. After that, all data was deleted from the server. As a reason for the site's discontinuation, the founders listed, that they believed "there (no ) suitable business in (concept of storytelling ) yet." Three days before the deadline, the Evernote Corporation announced that users could sync their existing Fotopedia material with Evernote before the shutdown, free of charge. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fotopedia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
