It has the typical digital photo management features (rotate, crop, remove red-eye, etc.) in a pretty click interface. Another nice feature is that it does this with photos already on your computer. You don&#8217;t have to move your existing digital photos around to a directory specifically for the program. Picasa will search your hard drive for digital photos and watch certain directories for changes so you don&#8217;t have to keep telling it when and where new photos are located. <\/p>\n<p>Picasa previously cost $29.95&#8230; but is now free thanks to Google!
