I've been using Google Picasa for a few years as my main source of photo management and backup tool. All photos get sync'd to the cloud to Picasa Web Albums, which also allows me to access them from any where directly on my Android phone via the in built Gallery application.
The problem is, Picasa is in a very bad situation. I have tagged people in my photos, but I'm seeing multiple contact entries getting created within Picasa and because t it syncs with my Google Contacts, I end up with 3 sometimes 4 duplicate contacts.
I don't have many contacts - around 100 - so its not to big a job to merge them. But here is the killer problem with Picasa. Whenever I start Picasa it recreates the missing contacts and then re-assigns photos back to them, even if I've already assigned them to the correct contact.
It makes no difference if I sort the contacts when Picasa is open or when it is closed. There are many people out there that are having the same issue.
Google, please listen to your Picasa users when they tell you its broken and fix it! PLEASE!! :(
There are lots of news on the web that Google are changing Picasa to become something along the lines of Google Photo to better integrate with Google+, which I think will be cool, but I can't use Picasa now and waiting for a product we know very little about, or even if its real, is painful.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FIX PICASA GOOGLE!!!

Virgin Media SuperHub 2: Changing the LAN IP
We've just moved house and I called up the requested 2 weeks before the move and informed Virgin Media. The 2 weeks was sufficient time for me to arrange a Virgin Media engineer to come to our new house, on the day we moved in, and set up our services.
We originally had the old SuperHub, but the engineer replaced it with the new SuperHub (which I wasn't expecting) and so I had to reconfigure the new router with my desired settings.
In my experience, the old SuperHub was renowned for dropping the Internet connection and required a reboot to get things working again. This happened so regularly, that I had to use a timer to power the router off, once a day, and then back on again. This was done in the early hours of the morning to avoid any active Internet sessions.
Eventually I grew tired of this and decided to use the SuperHub in modem mode and connect another router with a WAN port to resolve this issue.
So with the new SuperHub 2 I decided to reduce the hardwar
