iPhoto has always been a fast and easy way to organize, edit and share your photos and now with iPhoto 09’s Faces feature and Facebook interfacing, it has never been easier to share all your photos online with your friends and family.

First, create a new Album or Smart Album that you’d like to share.  (Remember to look for the + button in the bottom left corner to ADD a new thing!)  Once you’d done that, name it and drag the photos you want to share into it.

When selecting photos to drag over, don’t forget that you can select a range of photos by using the Shift key, or a selection of noncontiguous photos by using the Command key while selecting.

Now that the photos are in the album, you may want to ‘tag’ your friends using Faces if you haven’t done so already.  This is also a good time to adjust the titles of the photos if you’d like.

Once everyone has been tagged and we’re happy with our album, let’s look for the Facebook button on the bottom right corner of the iPhoto window.  Click it and sign in to Facebook to upload your pictures!

You’re going to get a screen that asks you if its OK for iPhoto to have access to your Facebook, if you say ‘yes’, then any time you add, delete or edit the album in iPhoto, those changes will map over and be reflected automatically on Facebook.  Likewise, if someone tags a person in your photo on Facebook, that tag will automatically map back to Faces in iPhoto!
