I've tried Picasa. [I tried the GNU/Linux version which conveniently comes in a .deb package. Heh. But this is the link for the Windows version, 'cause I know you guys don't love on my pretty Debian ;o; ] It doesn't look bad. It's quite handy for organizing and retrieving pictures. I just regret the wine [windows emulator... regardless of the Wine Is Not an Emulator acronym] interface.
I think this is a very useful application for those who have lots of pictures across different folders (or even in one folder) and wish to organize them, tag them and sort them.
Picasa had quite some fun scanning my some of my folders.
It looks good too, ignore my rambling against the wine interface.
I wonder what virtualrms will have to say about it... I think it will yell at me. =[
BTW, talking about pictures and the internet. I don't remember whether I recommended the "down-them-all!" Firefox extension before. If I didn't, I do now.
I know some of you are members of communities where people post lots of pictures or scans. This extension allows you to automate the process of downloading these pictures without actually needing to right-click-save each and everyone of them. ^_^
Similarly, the VideoDownloader extension simplifies the process of downloading videos from youtube and similar sites.
As usual, to install these extension you simply click on the install link.
