Popset offers a simple way to instantly share groups of photos with only the people who want to see them. After downloading the app, sign-in with Facebook and and friends directly into your network; or you can invite non-Facebook family members to join your Popset circle. It's not a Facebook app, per se, but it's closely integrated, so if you're an avid user, this may be right up your alley.

Starting a new album is easy and Popset lets you designate if you want the photos tagged with location, if you want others to be able to add photos (like your sister who also wants to share her back-to-school photos with the family) and who is allowed to see the album. It's great that it offers you customizable options and the control over your photos, which is really important when it comes to shots of the little ones. 

Since there is such tight Facebook integration, you can upload all your Facebook photos and albums through the app and also add special effects and filters to those photos. Plus you can email links to photo albums and even share them via Twitter and text, if the whole album has already been shared on the social network.

Now I will say as someone who has dramatically weaned off of Facebook in the past few months, and as more and more of us are thinking about privacy, and what apps have access to what information, it would be nice to have a different sign-in option as well.

But at least it's nice to have the option to privately share photos to a select few--assuming they also use Popset. There's already tons of photo-sharing photo services out there (um, heard of Instagram?), but the customization features and an easy-to-use interface, plus the fact that it's free,  makes this one worth a look. -Jeana
