Google killing Picasa in favor of PhotosFebruary 13, 2016 - 12:40 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Google has been steadily migrating its resources towards the Photos ecosystem since the company first announced it at last year's I/O developers conference. It's already shut down Google+ photos in lieu of the newer service and linked Photos to your phone's native camera app. Google announced Friday, February 12 that it will shut down Picasa, Engadget reports. The move will occur over the next several months, beginning on May 1, 2016. Take note, however, that the Picasa desktop application won't work after March 1. Current Picasa users simply have to log into Photos -- all of their content has already been moved over.
