It's finally here - Picasa has arrived for Mac and about time too. From this day forth, you can do away with iPhoto and its flimsy Picasa uploader extension and do it all from Google's glorious photo app.

All the accolades that apply to the Windows version apply to Picasa for Mac except of course, Picasa for Mac has all the polish and classy touches you'd expect from a Mac interface. Once you open Picasa, it will perform a full scan of images on your Mac which it then loads into the viewer quickly and efficiently. All images are instantly organised in chronological order.

Everything that's included in the Windows version is here including simple editing functions, slide shows, and online photo and video publishing as long as you have a Google account (and if you haven't got one by now, where have you been for the past 5 years!?).

Slick, polished, quick, logical and easy to use, Picasa makes viewing and publishing photos and videos a dream - I'll never go back to iPhoto again.
