Picasa Web Albums Adds Geotagging

Google’s Picasa Web Albums, their photo sharing service, added geotagging, which lets you specify where photos were taken and then see your photos placed on a Google map. You can enter the place photos were taken in a text field, and Google will place them for you, or you can drag and drop photos to place them on a map. When you share an album, people can see the photos represented geographically, although Google does not appear to have implemented a search by map ability (to use a map to find photos taken by anyone at certain places).
Picasa Web Albums also launched a version for mobile devices, located at google.com/mobile/photos/ (why not rename it Google Photos already?). You can use it to show off your photos from a mobile device while on the go, or see your friend’s photos, but not to upload new onews.
