Google has announced that it has bought the photoediting software outfit. Until recently, you had to edit your photos using client software on your computer. It seems the outfit wants to use the software to provide picture editing on its cloud based systems.
According to the press release, using Picnik, you can crop, do touch-ups and add cool effects to your photos, all without leaving your web browser. The site plans to continue as normal, but Google says that it is working hard on integration and giving it new features.
Google said that it would continue supporting all existing Picnik partners so that users will continue to be able to add their photos from other photo sharing sites, make edits in the cloud and then save and share to all relevant networks.
It does not look like an Picnik staff will be collecting their p45s or pink slips as a result of the buy out and will just be assimilated into the Google cube.
