Recently a customer needed to find old photos and drawings of equipment on their server. He was opening folders one at a time clicking on each file and searching. Can you relate? I sure could.
Well, with in a few mouse clicks and going on the Internet I downloaded this nifty program "Picasa", that catalogs and searches the photo contents of your computer and displays the photos and graphics in a super cool looking display that can be viewed in a timeline or by folder name. Not only did it catalog the photos from the computer we were using but with a few more clicks of the mouse we had it scan the whole network. All be a "sun of a gun" it found what he was searching for, and then some more.
I have found this program to be one of the best photo handling programs out there. But, it does not stop there. It has the capabilities to edit your photos like a pro. Below is a small example of what it can do.
There are tons of applications for this in the B2B and the B2C world. Imagine you need to be able to display a whole bunch of technical drawings or machine pictures quickly to someone around the world. With just a few clicks you could place it easily on a site (blog) that you could create in ten minutes, free of charge. There are even the capabilities of outputting a group of photos in a slide show format for a web site or on a CD disk.
The customer was very impressed and got a kick out of seeing all the long lost and forgotten. Take it from this picture taker, I suggest you check it out.
Share your application uses for Picasa.
