Coming in from the cold: Google embraces Macs! [1]

For the longest time we Mac users have felt like the poor stepchildren of Google. They developed Google Earth - for the PC. They developed Google Desktop - for the PC. They developed Google Toolbar - for the PC. You get the gist.
Well, it looks like the fine folks at Google have finally seen the light! They have a new section of their website called Google Software Downloads for the Mac [3] (wow! who thought that great name up?!?). And they also have started the Google Mac Blog [4] so all of us hardcore blog trackers can keep up with their latest offerings. Yay!
And here's some more Google news that's been a long time coming: Picassa [5] finally works with Macs (sort of - well, the Picassa Web Albums anyway, using iPhoto)! But now that we have Flickr [6] do we really care?
