One of my favorite ways to use Picasa is by using the Explore Tab.
The **Explore** tab allows you to discover new and interesting content from users around the world. There are four different modules you can use:
 * [[image:http://www.google.com/help/hc/images/picasa_106287_featured_photo_en.gif align="right"]]**Featured Photos**: A sampling of high quality photos taken from Picasa Web Albums users. Click on an individual image to view the entire associated album. Photos that have been featured will be badged with the Picasa Web Albums logo.
 * **Recent Photos**: A running feed of the photos most recently uploaded to Picasa Web Albums from users around the world.
 * **Where in the World?**: Challenge your geography knowledge by matching geo-tagged photos with their correct location on the world map.
 * **Popular tags**: Browse photos tagged with places of interest (Paris, New York), occasions (birthday, wedding), and much more.

Finding Photos with the Explore tab and making a slide show
The Recent Photos feature displays a filmstrip of recently uploaded photos from all over the world. All photos are taken from public albums set as 'publicly searchable.' [|Learn more]. To play a full screen slideshow of recently uploaded photos, click the **Slideshow** button on the **Explore** tab. During the slideshow, click the album name or username to see more public pictures by the same photographer. Recent Photos tips:
 * Control the speed of the slideshow using the snair-to-runner slideshow.
 * While viewing a slideshow, use the **Options** menu in the lower-right corner to control the following:
 * **hide info**: Conceal the accompanying information like album name and username.
 * **Report Abuse**: Report a photo that violates the [|Picass Web Albums Program Policies].
 * **Exit**: Go back to the **Explore** page.
