Google : Hello & Picasa2

A few weeks back i posted about the Next Generation of Google. Seems like things have really started taking shape with Google's new services.

Recently i installed Picasa 2 and it quite cool. The album compilation is interesting and you can do labelling, give ratings to the pictures and even blog entries can be posted on blogspot.
Hello is an instant messenger, complete with buddy lists and bots and smilies and sounds. The difference is that Hello is optimized for sending photos. It can automatically resize a photo so it sends properly. You can jump back and forth from Hello to Picasa to send your photos and share your albums. But most strikingly, it is an instant messenger in a Google product, and its a good bet that as Google integrates Picasa better with the rest of its services, Hello will be its chat client, with full feature support for Gmail and Google Desktop.
