Zurfer-like Picasa mobile shows off a Google Maps mash-up; adds location to your photos

Yesterday evening, Google announced the launch of the very descriptively-named Picasa Web Albums for mobile devices, which is another big step in the quiet photo sharing revolution.

With Map My Photos, Picasa joins Zurfer, which was launched two weeks ago by the Yahoo! Research Berkeley lab, in allowing us to mark photographs with location metadata, or "geotag" them, and then experience spatially-organized albums. Make sure to check out the Picasa team's test gallery for a demonstration of the mash-up at work.
