Hello Picasa
Well, I had originally opened up a Flickr account for myself. It’s the “in” photo site, right? It’s what everyone uses I hear. :P Whatever, I’ve pretty much written off Yahoo (who owns Flickr). I’ll be honest, lately I’m totally into everything Google does.
So, I’m ditching Flickr tonight and trying out Picasa. I suppose right off the bat what I love is that Picasa is more than just an online photo service. My wife has been using the offline photo application for a long time now, so I had a good laugh tonight when I asked her to help me with it.
The other factor that made me switch…Friendfeed supports it! I had thought that only Flickr was on there a while back (maybe it was?) but I checked tonight and it’s out there now, so I added it to my feed.
We’ll see how things go. It does look like there’s quite a limit on photo storage though… 1 GB? Seems low, but I really don’t need to upload high quality photos. In fact, I have a crappy $15 camera that I’m carrying around that will most likely be the source of everything I upload.
I’ll have a magic shortcut button for my feed on the right side of my blog soon as I can find a nice image, but if you’d like to check out my photo feed you can find it here: http://picasaweb.google.com/pagesix1536 . Or just follow me on FriendFeed.com to keep updated on when I publish photos.
