| Hi folks,
Just when you thought google cannot get any better ... or rather gmail. Well, gmail just introduced picasa, ....
Quote A free software download from Google.
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.

I just installed it and it rocks! 
NOTE: I am not affiliated with google, gmail or anyone for that matter!  |

| The rule is ever more important now:
Never store your nude collection on the HD of a shared computer! |

Chinese has one saying "若要人不知,除非己莫為" ... "Do not what one does not want to be known" (ignore the semantics as it is reverse ) |

hiaks! Yeah, its scary when you let it run and you realise how many backup copies of the same picture you have on your harddisk ... and some you never quite knew existed!!

| Yeap! I tried it the other day ... I like the way the maps come down in pieces and forms up rather quickly! 
ahh ... when there is country wide wifi (wifimax? ), then you can have GPS-like capabilites ... using ip-locator technology, wifi base station tracking, and a mapping service like google maps, you can effectively plough through the country without a gps! |

| Again; I don't like google, I have a gmail account, I wanted to see what the big deal was. It has been a month and I still haven't seen what the big deal is. Am I missing something?  Also the maps do leave something to be desired. |
