Your Digital Photo Gallery Just when you thought that the folks at Google™ had exhausted all of their good ideas, here comes another one. Picasa is a free, downloadable program that’s practically a one-stop shop when it comes to digital photos! If you’re like many, you gave in and traded your 35mm camera for a credit card-sized digital camera.

The average commute time in America is about 24 minutes each way, according to recent reports from the Census Bureau. That means Americans spend about 48 minutes travelling to and from work each day.
