Some might think that Google is trying to shoehorn its way into your Beloved Facebook however with the problems with the default Java Uploader this is another great way to upload your photos. It has been designed for IE8 however I will work with Firefox with IE Tab XPI.

first install the latest version of Picasa 3 to your PC then goto the application link on Facebook

When it detects that Picasa is loaded it will allow you to import the Facebook Button to Picasa if you are using Firefox you will also have to choose the Picasa link



When you have done this when you goto the application page in facebook you will be able to install the facebook button to Picasa click on install now



You will then see this window asking if you want to install the facebook button to Picasa interface



followed by




When all is finished you will be able to use the button to upload you photos to facebook



A bit longwinded but you only have to do it once then all you have to do is select the photos you want to upload and press the facebook button at the bottom





Picasa is also a great way to manage all you photos and jpegs on your PC and also to use the Picasa Web Albums photo sharing feature and as a bonus it will also allow you to upload to your www.blogger.com account all you have to do is specify which one of your blogs you want to upload to.



And of Course your Google Earth Account using Geo-Tag you will have to install the latest version and place it on the cross hairs
