Google Enters Online Photo Sharing Space?
Phillip Lensen of Google Blogoscoped points out that Google may be webifying their a-little-while-ago acquired Picasa photo management software, to compete with flickr. Of course, not sure why anyone would want to launch a product to compete with picasa, when snapfish, yahoo photos and other more private photo sharing sites are much more popular. But, hey. Flickr gets the geek cred. Here's Phillip:
Picasa is Google's desktop photo management software – something like Yahoo's Flickr, except it's not on the web. However, online photo management is a big pie of "making the world's information accessible"… and consequently, a new product appeared linked from the Picasa homepage, as Hermon points out in the forum: Picasa Web albums. The link points to picasaweb.google.com, a page which at this moment doesn't exist. Can we expect a Google Flickr?
