Picasa and Blogger will change the name

Google, Picasa and Blogger

Today people are busy talking about Picasa and bloggers who will soon be renamed.
Along with the immediate launch of Google's social networking, namely Google+. Within the next 6 weeks Google will rename Picasa and Blogger.

Picasa will be named Google Photos. Blogger will be named Google Blogs. With Google+ all the Google services will be integrated in a single page. Opening email, photos, blogs will be as easy as when you do it all on Facebook.

This name change is expected in July 31, 2011 or before Google+ officially launched to the public.
