Picasa 2 has some great features - like its speed in displaying NEF 
files and its handy timeline feature. To get Imatch categories into 
it, I have transfered those as keywords to the IPTC fields of the 
respective images  using the excellent script IMatch-2-IPTC 2.72.bas 
in the files section here and suppressing top-level category import. 
Picasa then recognises keywords.

By default there is am implicit AND in Picasa when you add multiple 
keywords. There is also an undocumented NOT. If you preface a 
keyword with a minus sign, it will suppress images with that keyword 
from the results set.

sorts of media files, and it would be interesting to, if possible, 
transfer my IMatch categories to the Picassa database to play around 
with it a bit more. It certainly won't replace IMatch, but it does 
have some nice UI features, and I like it's ability (which I know is 
coming soon to IMatch) to handle what appears to be a wide variety 
of video files.
