Photos 2.0 with picasaweb

Adam mentioned I should say something about why there are two versions of photos at the top now. The reason is that I’m slowly migrating over to Picasaweb. It’s simple and I’m in love. Picasaweb is, at the core, fundamentally similar to a photo gallery Fusion Bay wanted to create a few years ago with one great enhancement: Pre-caching of photos. I can’t state how great of an idea the pre-caching is, but it’s seriously awesome. I’d recommend everyone using gallery on my server try it and see what you think. The cost is marginal once you want to put over 300mb and absolutely worth it. Jump on over to the photos 2.0 and try browsing each photo with a simple keypress of the left or right buttons. Talk about easy! Now if only Seldin’s could get on the bandwagon with his 1,000 photos of men in drag, we wouldn’t waste so much time clicking those next and previous buttons. How web 1.0 is that?
