Picasa Web Albums Now Shares Slideshows

Picasa Web Albums, Google’s cumberously-named photo sharing service, has added a new slideshow sharing feature, allowing you to post your slideshows to any place that allows the same type of flash embeds used by YouTube. Here’s an example slideshow:

Move your mouse over the slideshow and you’ll see the control buttons appear. You can use them to view the creator’s photo gallery, enable or disable captions, move backwards or forwards through the slideshow, or just click Play. The Picasa logo in the bottom right-hand corner switches open a description page, giving you the name of the user, slideshow title, and creation date.
