    Picasa is a Windows application that allows users to find, edit, and enjoy the pictures on their computer in seconds. Picasa also makes advanced editing and picture sharing simple with fast one-click fixes. Visit the Picasa website.

    When a user downloads and installs Picasa through your referral, we'll credit your account with up to $1.00 (more details). *

    Damn, sounds like a pretty good referral deal, at least on power with FireFox. Haven't checked it out yet, does Picasa cost anything?

    No Picasa is free, and is a really nice program.
    This might be great for one of my sites that is design related, we 'll see how it converts.

    I don't see those at my account. Maybe because i'm portuguese...:rolleyes:
    I only see the picasa referrals...
    At the adsense blog they don't say that they only are available in some countries

    sounds like an excuse to waste some valuable advertising space.

    maybe for $10 i might think about it :)

    i never had any luck with referrals so far....or is just me?

    I look forward to seeing more diverse referrals in the mix, so that sites can refer relevantly. Example being as hinted at above, the picture program for picture sites.

    I have a photo/photo sharing software site so I thought Picasa would be a good thing to promote. A dollar per install seems pretty good for free software. Well, notice it says, "Up to 1 dollar". My commission was a whopping 10 cents.

    So what criteria has to be met to get the full dollar, and why is it not displayed prominently on the adsense website?

    Maybe it detects if Picasa has been installed on the computer before?

    I noticed they changed the wording for referral revenue to "up to" $1 when it used to say $1.

    Picasa is Cool !
    But I'm afraid of anyone will use all of programs from google ,The Google's Influence is enough.

    You get $1 only for US installs. Other countries pay less.. Just IMHO.
