Google told the world on February 12 it will no longer support, wait are ready for it? If you said, "Picasa" you got it right (picasa.google.com). Now I will not yell too loudly about this one since I was not a big Picasa lover. It seemed a little convoluted to me; however, many people love(d)…
Last week’s column generated a lot of email questions and comments. I did not realize there were a lot of Google Maps and Waze users out there. Some people had never heard of Waze and now are trying it out. Let me know how you like or dislike it as you experiment. One person brought…
