foolfillment: the blog

A while back I said I was playing with google’s Picasa and I suppose I should let you know what I think. It’s good, probably not the best free picture organiser out there but it is filled with nice features and fancy graphics (which means I’m hooked). It wasn’t that hard to add keywords to jpegs before but now it’s easy and you can add to gifs and other formats too. Why might you be bothered to do this though? The answer is that it’s made by google and if you add keywords to photos then it’s very easy to find photos later using the search.

It’s not perfect by any means (it searches through all the parent folder names so if you search for stuart on my pc you find every photo I have because they all have Stuart in somewhere in the file address) but it does make things look nice and it is only version 1.6. My verdict : it’s free and it’s only a smallfile to downoad, why not give it a shot? You might even like it.
