Picasa 3 on Ubuntu with Lotus Notes 8.5

Category IBM/Lotus Domino ND8 Ubuntu


Google's Picasa is my default photo editor. I've recently upgraded my primary work laptop to Ubuntu 8.10, which includes Lotus Notes 8.5. Today I went ahead and added the Google Picasa testing repository for trying out the latest release, Picasa 3. Better cropping, easier uploading to Google Images and a few other changes have made for a big improvement. But, what about e-mail integration ?

Everything works great. Sure enough, if I'm in Picasa and select the image I want to e-mail, it will fire up Lotus Notes, and embed the image with some comments in the memo area, and a subject header. I'm presented with a dialog for choosing GMail or my default e-mail. Lotus Notes is my default, so it kicks right into it. Even better, I use GScrot to make my screenshots, and that application will work with Picasa, as well.

This is a pretty handy desktop, for being free and running the Lotus Notes client.
