I was uploading some photos this morning from our trip to visit some friends in Texas and noticed that Picasa had an update available. Picasa 3.5 is a significant upgrade from 3.1 in that it adds name tags. Granted, I konw that Flickr and Facebook have had this for a while but it’s good to see that the Picasa team is continuing to better their product.
I have been a Picasa user for several years now, back before Google even purchased them, and while I have dabbled with Flickr and a few other photo sharing services, I keep coming back to Picasa. Here’s a release I found on the Picasa blog this morning about the update as well as a YouTube video…
Picasa 3.5, now with name tags – Build 79.67
