Manage updates with the Download AppPublisher's Description
From Google:
Transfer, find, organize, edit, print, and share images, all with this easy-to-use product. Watch Picasa automatically organize all your pictures into elegant albums by date. Having all your photos in one place means no more time wasted searching for folders or files. The program works with JPEG, GIF, BMP, PSD, and movie files and is compatible with most digital cameras; it detects your USB driver and imports pictures into albums. Editing tools include cropping (standard or custom), removal of red-eye, and enhancing--even switching from color to black and white. Create slide shows set to your MP3s. Integration with Picasa's free Hello instant picture-sharing software lets you share hundreds of photos in seconds and chat in real time. E-mail photos with Picasa's built-in client to take the guesswork out of compressing images, and order photo-lab quality prints or print at home with no mistakes. Picasa is owned by Google.
New features in version 2.0 include the ability to make instant backups to CD (or to other hard drives) of your photo collections, to organize your photos using labels and stars (just like with Gmail), to write captions for all pictures, and to organize videos as well as pictures.

"Loved 2.0 but have big problems with newer releases."
Version: Picasa 2
Pros
Picasa 2.0 was wonderful, so easy to view, edit and organize my photos; in fact I use to recommend it to everybody. I am unable to positively review its latest version.
Cons
Since I updated to latest version, I cannot complete the upload of my photos. It doesn't have the option to upload only certain file types, and as soon as it comes across a mov file extension the program shuts down. It won?t get past this point.
Summary
Restart after it closes (crashes) sends it back into search mode (as it has lost all files it found before) and then it shuts down again. I was a huge fan of 2.0 and wish I had it back, but will continue to periodically try again and again with hope that the newest release will not have the problems I experience. Explaining this to Picasa on their website when I have uninstalled has resulted in no reply or comment.
Found an online location to download the old version 2.0 and I am back to being SUPER HAPPY I have it. Will continue to recommend Picasa to everybody I know, but will specify use of the old version only.

"The perfect photo program"
Version: Picasa 2
Pros
It's very easy to use.Real good search (labels, capture location, captions, file and folder name, favorites...).
Browsing through galleries is also great(timeline.
Basic fixes on the photos are efficient and original photo is not changed. I think it's better than FastStone Image Viewer
Cons
It needs more features

"Manage all the photos on your computer!"
Version: Picasa 2
Pros
Combines ease of use with express delivery, Picasa2 resembles all of Google's other products. It's very simple, yet highly effective. The photo adjustments match the quality of Photoshops. It'll manage all the images on your computer, so instead of having to locate all your image files you can use Picasa2 to edit them. A great way to organize the photos and images on your computer!
Cons
It's not meant to be Photoshop, so you don't have the flexibility of a paintbrush and color pallete to add onto the image. It will adjust.
It does take up a lot of RAM especially if minimized to system tray. Also, it lacks customization.

"The Best in all the other photo managers I have used!"
Version: Picasa 2
Pros
When I ran this software with three other photo manager products it was the only one that didn't crash! I was moving my files around and removing photos at the same time, adding pictures and picasa responded well. I am loving the features though simple it may be, it just suits me fine. and it 's hard to crash...LOL
Cons
none
