Picasa - photo album
and photo effects editor |
Wow! It's not often I'm blown away by a photo
program. I should've expected this from Google. They keep making my
internet life better. The brief description below doesn't do this software
justice. The install was a problem for me but I solved it by turning off
my firewall. Picasa might be trying to contact home before installing.
Why? I don't have a clue. After installing it asked me if it could
search my PC for pictures. It did a nice quick search and found lots and
lots of pics. Then the fun began as I started playing with Picasa's rich
feature set. I highly recommend Picasa and I think you'll get the most use
from it if you have GMail
or Blogger.
Thanks to Tutelage at Xanga
for prompting me to try it out.

Picasa is software that helps you instantly find, edit and share all the pictures on your PC. Every time you open Picasa, it automatically locates all your pictures (even ones you forgot you had) and sorts them into visual albums organized by date with folder names you will recognize. You can drag and drop to arrange your albums and make labels to create new groups. Picasa makes sure your pictures are always organized. Picasa also makes advanced editing simple by putting one-click
fixes and powerful effects at your fingertips. And Picasa makes it a snap
to share your pictures – you can email, print photos home, make gift CDs,
instantly share via Hello™, and even post pictures on your own blog.
