The improvement I can think that they've done recently is to redesign their slide show and more stats. The only customization options they've given customers is redesigning the main page from a choice of a couple templates and then choosing sets/collections. I'm just saying, competition is good.

So, the only way Google can match that, is pumping more of it's search traffic towards the photos stored on picasa. People are too stuck on search as their inteface for the web. And, to be honest, I can't see Google's share (33% per comScore a few months ago) of their own algorithmic results going to far north without a lot of publishers getting very upset. Still, it's a good first step. Besides, guys: http://www.panoramio.com/ Google has a "flickr competitor" now, they're creating the same branding nightmare Yahoo Photos & Flickr had. Ideally, they move to one brand & then they can easily scale to more share...as it is, brand fragmentation in a vertical has never been a winning strategy...MSN Live anyone?
