picasa returns

Remember Picasa? The photo organizing, enhancing, sharing, totally free, so cool program Google put out a while ago? It's back and better, and as I speak I am downloading it as fast as my mediocre connection will let me. PC Magazine has a review out, though, and picasa has a walkthrough on their site.

Breezing through it, it looks awesome. Even more ways to organize the pics, rotate pics (something I've wanted for a while), tweak the pic a bit... It even seems to have an RGB histogram, so you can bring out the red or blue in a picture to make it just a bit better. Very neat.

I remember when my brother and I got a camera. It was an old thing, not even a 35mm. The film came in this strange cartridges and the flash was a little rotating thing that was good for 4 pictures. I wasn't very impressed. We got newer cameras quickly, but I still never liked taking pictures. You took the picture, let it sit around for a month or two, got the film developed, found out half of them were too dark to come out, and tried to remember where the others were from.



Digital is so much cooler.
