Google has had their Picasa desktop application for Windows for a while now. I used it a little bit, but since I primarily use my Macs to handle photos I use iPhoto. Google Picasa Web Albums was recently released and it since its in a web browser it works across platforms. It seems like a pretty cool tool but I think the new Yahoo beta will end up being better.

It seems like it should have some sort of FTP access to the store unit as well. To only be able to upload 5 photos at a time seems to take forever. The web interface however is pretty clean. That?s typical of Google though. It’s a good starting point for them and I think it will improve over time.

I haven’t really jumped to the web photo albums. I used to post photos on my site and thats about it. I guess web photo albums would be useful but it still seems to be too much work to get the data into the web application.
