Google Acquires Picasa, Improves Blogging Tools

clandestine writes "It appears that our lovable search engine has again expanded its horizons - the internet wasn't enough; now you can search and organize your own pictures. I don't know about you, but I use Google for nearly everything; heck, I found links about their acquisition of Picasa through Google News! Any slashdotters going to benefit from this tech, or already do? And yes, the addition of Picasa to their arsenal is a couple of days old, but they just started linking them on the homepage today."

    Shouldn't call someone lame and lazy for overlooking something if you spell Picasa "Picaso".

    My God, do you mean to say that people apply different standards for behavior to convicted monopolists than they do to, say, law-abiding corporations?!

    How strange.

    To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it

    While you're at it, could you send me an ICQ invite? I've been dying to message my friends.
