http://gallery.sf.net runs on a PHP-enabled apache server, and provides great facilities for managing photos &c on a website.
It doesn't help you with managing them on your PC, though it does give you Gallery Remote, a java drag'n'drop app to get uploading done in a reasonable manner.
I've found managing pics by sub-directories and sensible naming strategies to be adequate - generally once you've chosen images to go online, you can archive the original set away to CD and get them off your hard disk.
However, I'd consider hard disk to be the most durable & safe storage medium, see recent discussions about the long-term storage capabilities of CD, DVD etc. So every few years, read in your data, and write it out to something different :-)
CD-R etc media have finite lives - then so do hard disks (whether going or not). There is no one recordable media that is superior to any other.
