-Google's [Picasa photo sharing site][2] has finally added mapping support. The new features allow users to see a small map in the sidebar for each photo that has latitude and longitude data associated with it.
-
-Adding your geodata is a drag and drop process and in a nice touch entire albums can be dropped on a location rather than having to set each photo individually. The Picasa desktop client also supports image geodata via Google Earth.
-
-Most other photo hosting services (Flickr comes to mind) have offered similar support for ages, but now Picasa users don't have to feel left out. Plus Picasa boasts a couple of new features that Flickr lacks.
-
-First there's a integration with Google Earth which can turn Google Earth into a photo browser. Another nice touch is that in the main Picasa maps view, rather than simple pins to mark each photo, Picasa displays a small thumbnail of the image.
-
-But the highlight of the new mapping features is the combination of maps and slideshows. If you select a photo in the map and click on "play", the slideshow will move around the map according to the photos locations.
-
-If you'd like to see the slideshow in action, the Picasa team has [posted a test gallery][1].
-
-Picasa has also announced a new [mobile version of the site][4].
