Internet giant Google announced on March 1 that it had bought Picnik.com, a website that allows users to edit and store photos online. "Until recently, you had to edit your photos using client software on your computer," Brian Axe, a Google product management director, said in a blog post.
"Today, we're excited to announce that Google has acquired Picnik, one of the first sites to bring photo editing to the cloud," Axe said. Axe said Google would not be "announcing any significant changes to Picnik today, though we'll be working hard on integration and new features." Picnik allows users to import photos from other services such as Picasa, Flickr and Facebook.
"Google processes petabytes of data every day, and with their world-wide infrastructure and world-class team, it is truly the best home we coould have found," Picnik said.
