Picasa 3 is a application powered by Google, used for the Best Photo Management As such it is integrated with many of Google`s services. Users can do a variety of things with their photos with a click of the mouse. Photo sharing is made easier since with a click users can email a photo, upload to Google Web Albums, Blogger, YouTube, and Google Earth. Ordering prints is done in a cinch by placing orders with online photo labs. This application has several features, including photo editing, slideshow, and photo organization. The ease in which users can organize their photos is amazing. Another great way to organize and keep your photo`s up to date is with quick exchange picture frames!

Photos can be organized in the application by grouping them by albums based on times and dates. Also adding tags to a photo so it can be found easily the next time around makes things that much simpler. Another feature is adding captions as another level of organization and clarity as to what the photo is about. Almost instantaneous file imports from memory cards, USB cameras, and CD drives makes going through new or old photos that much easier.

Of course another thing to be mentioned is the simple one click effective features that come with Picasa 3 as a photo editor. Quick one click fixes for things such as: glow, saturation, sharpen, black and white, contrast, sepia, and many more as well. The program has a decent red-eye removal tool. Users can also crop, rotate, and (useful feature for crooked shots) straighten.

A wonderful thing that Google has put into consideration when putting this application together is that not everyone is well versed in photo editing so the interface is very user friendly. Novice users now can fear no more of accidentally overwriting their precious memories by bad overdone photo enhancements or cropping. Thanks to the genius behind this is no longer a worry since originals are saved in their own folder within the folder of the photo being edited.

Lastly, a superb photo viewer with easy access to any and all photo editors on users` computers. The sleek look gives it a very Windows Vista feel with being partially transparent. Users can customize the look a bit as well. The ability to move the photo to the side to compare it to another photo in the works in Picasa 3 is simply amazing.

A great combination of photo editor, photo organizer, slideshow, and photo sharing application makes this a must for any individual that snaps a lot of pictures, whether they use digital or vintage photo cameras. Best of all this is all free. That`s right, all these wonderful features are free with no added spyware or malicious software. There are so many more great features however these are the main ones. This is a all in one application which makes photo management so much more fun and way easier.
