Google Acquires Picasa, Mountain View, California.
The move signals the beginning of a "turf war," according to Fredrick Marckini, CEO of search engine marketing firm iProspect."Google is acquiring not just a photographic opportunity but more impressions," Marckini speculated. "All the people looking at photos may likely see Google's contextual ads displayed by their photos. Their integration with Blogger allows them to show a photo and a caption. The caption provides captions, such as 'Here's my friend Julie with her 10-speed Schwinn.' Now we can show contextual ads for Schwinns on blogs."
