Picasa is free software from Google that helps you instantly find, edit and share all the pictures on your PC. Every time you open Picasa, it automatically locates all your pictures (even ones you forgot you had) and sorts them into visual albums organized by date with folder names you will recognize. You can drag and drop to arrange your albums and make labels to create new groups. Picasa makes sure your pictures are always organized.

Picasa now allows consumers the ability to print to all LifePics photofinishers. To purchase prints, a user simply clicks the "Order" button in Picasa and chooses the LifePics network. From there, the user is taken to the Lifepics website, where he or she enters a zip code to select a local photofinisher. The photos are then transferred automatically to the selected photofinisher. This functionality allows photofinishers who have joined the LifePics network -- from small one store shops to regional or national photofinishing chains -- the ability to immediately start receiving orders from this popular tool for organizing and managing your photos on your PC. From a consumer's perspective, this new functionality combines the power of Picasa with the convenience and service of the largest network of local photofinishers.

The Picasa software is available for download at www.picasa.com. Users can also find it by going to www.google.com and clicking the "More" link. Picasa is for Windows® computers only and is currently available in English.
