At BL's

a way to get my iPhone pics on picasa

My actual blog is located at blog.aliwolly.com, but I'm looking for a way to easily get pics taken from my iPhone online. Right now, I use Phanfare to host my pictures, but am thinking of moving to flickr or picasa because Phanfare is changing to a more social network type site anyway and so I may as well move to one of the more established sites that may offer greater compatibility with my iPhone. Flickr has more 3rd party app support and i can find a few apps that will let me push photos directly up there - some even with titles, tags, and geolocation data. There aren't any iPhone apps yet that will allow me to do that for Picasa, but I can get pics up on Picasa by emailing them to be published on a blogger blog (hence the genesis of this site). I like Picasa a little better than flickr because they have a great iphone interface for viewing your albums from your iPhone and they are google owned so they tie in tightly with google maps and other google products (and I'm more of a google girl than a yahoo girl anyway). Oh, and Picasa has a plug in that works with iPhoto, which is nice because that's what I use to organize my photos. We'll see who wins out in the end. If there were any apps for the iPhone for picasa like there are for flickr, I think that picasa would be the winner right now...
