Nokia Beta Labs has recently released the new version of Nokia Photos. While still in beta, the version 1.5 adds many improvements to the application, including:

  • New look with better user interface and Ovi branding (Timeline and Organise views)
  • Improved support for importing images from non-Nokia devices
  • Tools for adding and visualising geo-tagged images (Maps View)
  • Improved integration with “Share on Ovi” and other Nokia services such as XpressPrint Print Online

It’s important to note that this is still a beta application and may be unstable. However, Nokia is getting better every day and we’ve no doubts they’re getting ready to clash with Google and their service offering. While still not Picasa, Nokia Photos is certainly getting there…

AllAboutSymbian’s Rafe Blandford prepared a neat review of the app. It’s a must read for all NSeries owners.

In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
