A photofeed is a web feed that features image enclosures. They provide an easy, standard way to reference a list of images with title, date and description.
Photofeeds are RSS enclosures of image file formats, similar to podcasts (enclosures of audio file formats).

- an Amazon.com wishlist

- a list of desktop backgrounds (used by a screensaver)
Photofeed aggregators
[edit]A photofeed aggregator is a piece of software that accepts subscribable RSS 2.0 syndication feeds and downloads or precaches higher resolution images (rather than thumbnails) for later viewing, such as when offline. There are not a tremendous number of photo aggregators yet. (please add)
- iPhoto from Apple, Inc.
- Zencast Organizer from Creative
- Google Photo Screensaver (Windows XP and Vista). Available with Google Pack or Picasa.
