January 9th is the new deadline for papers/abstracts submissions and Invited
Sessions Proposals for CITSA 2008: The 5th International Conference on
Cybernetics and Information Technologies,
Having worked on PC's for so long, I'm somewhat out of the loop on
Mac software and options...
I'm looking for some lower end (but not bottom of the barrel) image
management/library software that's Mac compatible.
It's not going to be for a huge number of images
But there are enough images
You might like Adobe Bridge or Canto Cumulus or Extensis Portfolio.
All of them have demos you can download.

your files stored on a network disk that all can access from
I haven't used the CS3 version, but Adobe Bridge in CS2 is an awful dog. If
you have a large number of large images in a folder (say a few hundred
ranging in size from 30MB to 80MB), it will bring all but the most powerful
machines to a halt. The single user version of Portfolio is not terribly
You might also look at Adobe Lightroom. Very capable, intuitive and
powerful image manager. IMHO

Also worth considering is Microsoft Expression Media, formerly I-View Media
Pro. Although it does not serve our needs at MoMA, I find it useful for
organization and very fast access to thumbnails and enlarged previews for a
small archive of several thousand images, providing convenient batch
