Picasa is an easy way to access and share your images online. The fact that it is online is an advantage in case your computer crashes. Similar to gmail and google docs your information will never be lost as it can be accessed from any computer online.
In terms of a classroom setting it is important that students are aware of the implications when uploading personal photos. It should be strictly for educational purposes. For example in Stage 5 Textiles & Design students can take a photo of their finished products and upload it to Picasa for other students to view each others work or the teacher can view it for marking purposes. For Stage 6 Textiles & Design in particular Year 12, teachers can share albums of the Major Textiles Projects to other schools.
Below is a link for an album I created on Picasa exhibiting Year 12 MTP 2012.
