Google's Picasa Web Albums Open For Business

Google today launched their new online photo sharing software, Picasa Web Albums.

Designed specificially for Google's Picasa photo editing software that launched in 2004, this new service allows you to actually share your photos through Google, instead of similar sites like flickr.


You get 250 MB of space for free, which pretty much blows the competition out of the water. Also, you can buy an additional 6 GB for a yearly fee of $25, making Picasa Web Albums just about the only Google service that you may end up paying for.

Right now, it's available by invite only (all you have to do is enter your Gmail address and you'll get an invite), on a first-come first-served basis. Go to picasaweb.google.com to get a PWA account.
