Google's products

My thoughts on Google's products:

Search
+ Search for images, videos etc. Image search has a "find more like this" function and can filter types of images e.g. lineart, photos.
+ Filter by date and type of result.
-Sometimes, adding more search terms gives more hits, instead of less:

Blogger
+Automatic saving
+Free image hosting
+Easy handling of tabs
+Easy searching of blog
+Many widgets, like posts by month
+Powerful formatting

Picasa Web Albums
+Cheap storage
+Editing and organising functions e.g. rotation, batch move/delete
+Links still work if you move the photo to another album
-Cannot search by file name or user name
-Must be careful with geotagged photos
-Needs more statistics like most visited, total number of photos

Android
+Only viable competitor to iOS now
-Cannot run apps off SD card
-Good luck getting an upgrade
