Oh no, another thread on how each person handles some trivial task!

I like naming each group of photos in the pattern:
yymmdd_what_im_shooting

that can work if your photos are usually grouped into coherent sessions, but mine usually are overlapping subjects or i don't want to figure it out right away; i don't put any metadata into the filename, i just auto-file into folders by date; this makes reconsiling backups and such easy, but otherwise i rarely look at the files or their names

then i tag by any number of things, which i can do now or later; i may make "smart albums" for certain subjects; i also sometimes use Aperture's grouping feature; all of this is independent of the filesystem

Now, we can have 20 other people tell you what they consider to be the proper 
way to do this, and explain what is wrong with everyone else's way of doing it.

nothing's proper nor wrong
