Google on Monday announced its latest social-web acquisition: Picnik. A complement to Google’s Picasa and a partner with services like Yahoo’s Flickr and Photobucket, Picnik lets users edit photos in the browser. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Brian Axe, a product management director at Google, noted the rise in people sharing and storing photos online. In addition to photo-sharing sites, Facebook and MySpace are also driving traffic to online photos within their social-networking communities. In fact, Facebook leads the photo-sharing market in the United States and worldwide.
