There are external drives that tablets can access, even an iPad. The Seagate Wireless Plus is a 1TB external hard drive that can be accessed via wifi. In the case of Android tablets, many, such as the Nexus 7 I have, can access an external drive via a special USB cable called an OTG cable.

I will look into those hard drives ... good to know! What software/Apps do you use to access files on the external drives?
But, the Picasa I'm referring to is Picasa3 software for Winows or Macintosh - it resides on the computer to manage the library of pictures on the computer. The website is altogether a different animal. Picasa3 software is only available on Windows or Mac - no mobile app.
