- I have always used their printers, papers and inks, so I will be reviewing their products and crafting website because that's what I know about :) This free software from Google lets you organise (and edit) your images and photos like never before - with tags and keywords: no longer wonder which file to put a picture under, give it 3 or 4 'names' if you like and find it again just by typing in one of those words. Picasa also acts as a photo editor, and I have to say it's one of the easiest I've used - in fact I often prefer to edit images in Picasa than Paint Shop Pro!

It is an incredible piece of software, to say its free
