About

MyGreatWorld.com is a free and fast photo community and a visual database of locations, starring the cities and landscapes of our planet Earth.

MyGreatWorld addresses anyone willing to photographically depict a spot and share information about it with the global neighbourhood. Uploading and sharing your pictures and thoughts is easy (and no personal data must be entered to become a member) -give it a try!

Instead of just hoarding millions of pictures without any additional criteria, the aim of MyGreatWorld is it to categorize information in order to present typical impressions of a spot, of its nature, technique and industry, history, architecture and the people who are living there, allowing at the same time for a simple and intuitive access to the true gems of our surrounding world.

MyGreatWorld is combining two different approaches:

• Users shall get a more neutral visual impression of a spot because of a wider range of sources (also as a counterpart to glossy magazines)

• By means of an advanced database-technology, photos shall become an archive of time and place and a witness of change and development. The change of a place and its surrounding area, as it appears today becomes obvious by comparing the chronological advancement in housing and construction and the varying styles in design and architecture.

With the mighty Advanced Search, users can for example search for pictures in the categories 'Historical Spot, Building & Object' and 'Flora & Fauna' taken in May in the year 2007 in England, in the city of Fleetwood that were uploaded by user fusion containing the keywords 'river' and 'wreck'.
