3 Mar 2010Google has stated that one of the reasons for acquiring Picnik was to have an online image editor that could work with their upcoming Google Chrome OS.
Google Chrome OS would be a cloud based operating system that would run pretty much from inside a web browser.
Since Google does not plan to bundle any application with the operating system itself, they are aiming to have online editions of most of the routing stuff.
Google already has an online office suite in the form of Google Docs. They also have storage on it. Google Picasa Web is an online storage for photos and videos. Picnik pretty much satisfies the need to have a functional image editor on Chrome OS.
