It's worth having a look if you like having pics on your computer.
I'm on my way over to download my copy now... I'll be by later to blog for the day, but it won't be very long.

| Home Free Download Features Support |
Dear photography enthusiasts: Just in time for your post-holiday picture organizing, Picasa 2 photo management software is here to help you find, edit, and share your photos in ways you never imagined. And good news: Google is still offering Picasa as a free download. If you're using a previous version of Picasa, you will need to download the new version below to take advantage of these new features. (Note: this download will not overwrite your old version; all existing pictures and edits will be preserved and automatically appear in Picasa 2.)
What new features will you find in Picasa? Advanced Editing
Picasa 2 is all about improving your picture after you take it. The fill light slider under the Basic Fixes tab repairs almost any dark, backlit photo. It's a wonder. Twelve new photographic filter effects are worth thousands of dollars in expensive photo filters and equipment (come see my garage for proof); you'll find a graduated tint effect that really makes gray skies blue. Zoom. Straighten. You can make good pictures great in Picasa. Better Organization
New labels help you instantly group pictures into photo albums and add keywords so that later on, you can find pictures fast. You can even put the same picture into multiple labels without taking up extra space on your hard drive. A new Folders on Disk collection precisely matches the folders on your computer where your pictures are stored. If you move pictures from one folder to another folder in here, Picasa physically moves the original picture file on your computer to a new location. It's a great way to clean up pictures stored all over your PC. You can even re-name picture file names directly from Picasa. Handy Captions
Every picture tells a story, and Picasa's new captions will help you tell your stories in your own words. Best of all, the captions you write are saved as part of the picture's file, along with all the information that your camera captured when the picture was taken (like the date and time and whether a flash was used). All of this picture information is searchable in Picasa. If you add star ratings to your favorite pics, you'll find those super-quickly, too. Sharing Pictures
You've taken all these pictures - now Picasa is better than ever at helping you show them off. You can burn a backup or gift CD (with slide shows); send email using your Gmail account or the email of your choice; blog photos in one click; and use Hello instant photo chat. You'll especially enjoy ordering prints direct from your favorite photo processing web sites now that Picasa will literally export multiple pictures for you (that's right - save hours of time by uploading in seconds). The prints and products available at Ofoto, Shutterfly, Snapfish, and WalMart.com are now yours for the taking. At-home photo printing has more options, including wallets, 4x6, 5x7, and 8x10 sizes.
Most important, have fun...
Finally, because we believe that above all, taking digital pictures should be fun, we've added some toys under the new "Collage" button and in the Create menu. I won't spoil your discovery process, but trust me -- your desktop will never look the same again.
