Photobucket & Picasa Web Albums are two online photo sharing websites. Photobucket is an image hosting and video hosting website. Photobucket was founded in 2003 by Alex Welch and Darren Crystal. Photobucket is widely used for both personal and business purposes. Picasa is a photo editing software developed by Google to manage digital photos & videos.
