**About Picasa**
Picasa is a program that you can use on both Windows and Mac computers. It searches your computer and finds all the image files on the machine. Picasa does not copy or move the images from their original location, it just allows you to see all your images at one time. You can edit your images, create a collage, create a slideshow or upload/sync your images to your PicasaWeb account. The great thing about Picasa is that you can work on your files all on your computer and when you are ready, you can sync them to your PicasaWeb account where others can see them online. Great tool!
