How Will Google Compete With Facebook Photos?

Google still isn’t revealing much about the “Facebook killer”, currently titled “Google Me”, however the latest details suggest that the company is aiming to create a social layer across all their products, including search. There will clearly be a number of components that contribute to this new social layer, however it’s clear that photos and videos will play an important role.

While it hasn’t been officially stated by Google executives, Facebook has been increasing the features on Facebook photos over the past few months at a furious pace, most likely because Google is looking at providing their own social photo discovery service.
