TiVo is getting more aggressive for its survival. With recent moves to be teamed up with Rhapsody and a partnership with Nero for PC DVR options. Tivo just announced the partnership with Photobucket and Google’s Picasa. Tivo users can now access to their Photobucket or Picasa account via TiVo in HD. Access to these photo-sharing tools are available at no additional charge for TiVo subscribers.
Some key features for Photobucket and Picasa on TiVo included in this merging of services include some custom viewing options for photos. As you’ll be viewing your images with TiVo’s user interface, this customization is somewhat important. So you’ll be able to search through community photos, and create slideshows as well.

It interfaces with YouTube and Picasa, as well as several other sites.
