brscPicasa jQuery plugin released

I host most of my photos on Picasa Web Albums so I needed some simple way to embed my photos or whole albums on my WordPress blog (or on any other page). I did not want to insert any special tags or shortcodes on pages because I don’t like them and they look stupid if you turn off plugin that uses those shortcodes. I just wanted to insert link to Picasa photo or album page on my page and it should be changed into photo or list of photos automagically 
After searching and trying some WordPress plugins and inspired by my colleague’s post I decided to write my own jQuery plugin for my needs. And that’s how brscPicasa came to life. It works exactly as I wanted: it finds links to Picasa Web Albums on page and replaces them with photos or photos lists. No configuration needed, no special codes and special markup. It can be also easily integrated with any lightbox clone plugin (I use ColorBox on my websites). More info can be found on brscPicasa plugin page.
