Default Stop calling JPGs on the internet "albums".

We need to come up with a new term for internet based photo collections other than "album". Albums should only be a physical object made from cardboard and paper.

IMO.

Too convenient for anyone to take a bunch of pictures with their iPhone, sign up on Facebook, and cobble together a bunch of photos of their dog, then announce "I just released my new album".

Great for the ego, not so great for the legacy of real albums.

IMO.

YMMV.
