Picasa Web Albums + Picasa + Panoramio = Picasa 4 (similar to iPhoto's new "Places" feature)

Photosynth + New Picasa/Panoramia merged product + Street View = An amazing piece of technology.

Anyone else want this so bad?

[put at-character here]James I'm wondering why they didn't used the existing technology Photosynth-like for Picasa in Google Maps. This would render very nicely! http://nv0.panoramio.com/navigate.php?id=12053 :)

I agree... the next Picasa should allow us to stitch images just like Windows Live Photo Gallery does. And the UI should be much sleeker like Chrome with Geotagging, Face-, Color-, Object- Recognition like Image Search.
ImHo, Panoramio should be merged with Picasaweb. Besides, Picasa had its own publish as public or private feature.

Oh well, I guess Panoramio is for tourist-photographer-loves-attractions-zone only since they doesn't allow to log-in with your Google account.
:]
