A Google moment
Google buys Picasa. Picasa makes software for viewing and organizing digital pictures.
Another step on the way to Google becoming your operating system. Let's see, they have search, networking, weblogs, email, groups, news and now image management (not to mention all the stuff from the "labs"). So what does that leave - some form of web-based text/presentation software, group-calendars, instant messaging and tetris. With all the cash about to flood the piggy-bank, that shouldn't be hard to do.
