Google's Picasa (Image organiser) with a host of features is now available for Linux!!
The download file size is 20.7 MB. Get the award-winning photo-managing software.
Get it from here:
*picasa.google.com/linux

NOTE: If you are using Fedora, Suse or Mandriva Linux download the 'RPM' format.
On the other hand if you are using Debian-based distro like Ubuntu get the '.deb'
format.

Checkout some screenshots!!

Yeah, Picasa has been available for some time for Linux, so has Google Earth, which is great. But sadly, Picasa isn't native Linux. It is a Windows version running on a wine layer.

That's right @Borg, due to some restrictions in implementing the same Look,
also the same features as such, Google thought using Wine was a better
solution. Even the options for 'Adding a Folder' looks like a Windows one!!
