Picasa is an intuitive website that allows you to edit and reframe your photos, and remove red-eye, online or on your computer. All you need to do is sort them and save them in an album, after which you can add a title or put together a slideshow. Photo sharing has become super easy for Google+ users; anyone can see your photos, just send email them an invitation. The storage capacity is about 1 GB. Once you pass that limit, you’ll need to upgrade and pay for the pro version.
