Google has bought Picnik, a free online image editing website.

Picnik has grown to become one of the most popular web-based photo editing sites.

It had a few hundred thousand visitors in January of 2007, and it grew to six million in January 2009.

Google announced that no changes will be made to Picnik for the time being, but the Picnik blog announced that they look forward to the next stage of enhancements to the service. Interestingly, Piknik is the default tool used for editing photos to be uploaded to Flickr (owned by Yahoo). Google says Yahoo (and other sites) can continue to integrate with Picknic.

My Comments

Google has taken some acquisitions (like Writely) and incorporated them into Google Docs. Others like Jaiku have festered. Only time will tell if Google is going to let Picnik wither or if it’ll be merged with Picassa.

   At any time since their feud in UFC 107 in December, there have been numerous situations, where it was assumed that Evans and Jackson could possibly collide alongside 1 an additional. Nonetheless, Jackson announced a retirement, which did not last for long, but place the match on keep. Now, with the star announcing a return, fairly very much lately, the feud has been reignited. Equally of them will get an opportunity to settle their distinctions once and for all when they go head-to-head in opposition to a single one more in UFC 114 on May possibly 29.
