Default Picasa adds some clever new software...for free!

I have never been a huge fan of Google's image hosting Picasa. It is free, you get a ton of storage space and it does have some tools for fixing redeye and make minor adjustments to digital images. In short, it's a good starter program with features that fall far short of what a pro needs. However, Google just added a clever new program you may be interested in. A facial recognition program lines up the faces in a slideshow type presentation, so if you want to, say, show the progressive growth of your children, this would work well. Watch the video for yourself below.

That looks like great fun. I hope it's still around in 20 years when my little one is all grown up.
