How to use a GPS with Google Earth and map your path. Which is also a way to use your laptop and any GBP 30 GPS receiver to create a GBP 100 GPS navigator.

Picasa Web Albums

Wed, 14 Jun 2006 12:00:00 +0000

Google has released Picasa Web Albums and I managed to sign up. See my web albums.

The bad part about Picasa Web is that it’s a long way from Flickr in terms of tagging and sharing. But it probably wasn’t built for that.

The good part is that it’s integrated with Picasa (integration with Flickr was my top wishlist item for Picasa) and best of all, with Google Earth. You can geotag photos on the new Beta version of Picasa.

Dhar 14 Jun 2006 9:25 am: Two quick questions: \
1. Can I view the orginal size of the image or will I be restricted to some lower resolution image? \
2. Are there any upload limits (per image or per month)?
  Cheers, D.
Dhar 14 Jun 2006 9:28 am: Oh OK. Question answered:
“High-quality photos, automatically resized and optimized to fill available screen space”
“Each Picasa Web Albums account comes with 250MB of free storage space”
Details here.
