Yes, Picasa is similar to iPhoto -- which actually has won Apple loads
of awards :)

Picasa has the Google feel: with labels and stars (a la Gmail) 
iPhoto is more Apple-like, with an arguably more simplistic interface
and the other regular Apple features ....for instance,. just like
iTunes, it allows a star rating of 1-5 stars -- as opposed to one star
for Picasa.

Picasa runs a little sluggish on my system (128mb ram) though :(( 

Hey... anyone tried out the Hotmail mailbox hacks? I couldnt try the
one Varun suggested coz MSN does not seem to support Idea as yet...
the one Megha posted seemed a little scary to try out.... with the
account closing and stuff...  :) If anyone's tried it out, could you
please let me know?
