Noah Everett is the founder of Twitpic, a site he started in 2008 when he wanted to share pictures via Twitter.

Twitpic is a website that allows users to easily post pictures to the Twitter microblogging and social media service.

Twitpic could be used independently of Twitter, in a way similar to Flickr. However several characteristics make this site a companion for Twitter. Twitpic usernames and passwords are the same as the ones in Twitter.

Comments to photographs are sent as a reply tweet. Twitpic URLs are already short, making it unnecessary to use URL shortening.

Anyone with a Twitter account can post pictures to the site. It has about 6.5 million registered users and is an Alexa Top 100 site.
