5.Picasa

Picasa comes from Google — a name you can trust and have been trusting for all these years.

Although Picasa is known as a tool to organize and view photographs in a simpler way other than as a typical photo editor.

When compared to the normal Microsoft Image Viewer or other default one, Picasa works fine as an image viewer with mediocre features in the editing aspect.

What makes Picasa different from other tools is that all the effects you can apply are one-click though additional customization is available in most cases.

For instance, you can bring the blur effect or cinemascope effect to your image, with a single click.

In the latest version of Picasa, Google has implemented integrated sharing with Google Plus, accompanied by options to tag your friends and share images. Picasa has some cool effects too, by the way.
