Upload from PC using Google's Picasa Program

Picasa is a free program from Google that you can download to your PC to organize, edit and manage your photos.

With Picasa you can view all of the photo’s on your computer and easily select which ones to upload. After photos are uploaded a green arrow icon is visible on the photo when viewing in Picasa. This is my favorite way of uploading my photos to Google +.

To learn how to set up and use Picasa follow the WA tutorial "How to Organize Your Photos with Google's Picasa"

Nice tutorial Sharon! I need to check this out. I haven't really started using Google+ because i couldn't figure out how it fits in with Facebook, Twitter, etc. I use SugarSync on my phone currently to back up pictures I take. But I'm going to try switching that over to use the Google+ app, and then organize all my photos as you've described here. Thank you!

Well now, this is a bit embarrassing.... I already had Google+ installed on my phone, and just had to enable auto-backup for photos & videos. LOL! Backing up now, then I'll go and see how I can organize them online. Thanks again for the "kick in the rear" I needed Sharon!

Glad that you found this useful. Google has so many awesome tools available. When I backed up my phone it took several hours because I had so many of them. When my phone would shut off the process stopped so I had to increase my settings to never turn off until all of the photos were backed up.
