Mac OS X Picasa Web Album Uploader

Google has had for a while now a service called Picasa that allows you to post photos online via Google, and organize them into albums, share them with others, etc. Very nice -- unless you were a Mac user. Well, that has been rectified as of today. The latest post to the Google Blog mentions, in part:

I'm happy to tell you about the release of Picasa Web Albums Uploaders (beta, of course) for Mac OS X. Picasa Web Albums makes it simple to share photos with friends and family, and now we've made it even easier on the Mac. This new download comes with two handy tools for uploading photos: There's a plug-in for uploading your pics within iPhoto. If you don't use iPhoto, or just want to upload the occasional picture, just drag your photos into the provided standalone app and click Upload. Either way, I can't wait for my fellow Mac users to showcase their talents.

Read all about it here. Links to creating a Picasa account (if you don't have one) and to the uploaders are contained within the article.
