Since you mention the Mac...
The Mac offers extensive meta tagging capabilities and an API for working
with tags. To make tags truly effective we also need a

A good place to get used to the benefits of tagging is Gmail. After you
get used to that I expect you will want more.

Save your RAW pics in DNG format to preserve all the RAW data and get

That would be 15 years too late for image files.
When did they start supporting meta tages on all file types?

It may be old school, but it works for me. Although your example is something

I've run a few tests with picasa to see about how metadata is kept and or
stripped out. Using picasa 3 beta, I can create tags on images on my vista
ultimate machine and then transfer only the images, not the folder
containing the images to another system using picasa 3 beta and running xp

That's the problem with tagging I think. (I am not sure about this...).
You can do a lot of work that in one way or another is essentially not
migratable...
The problem of proprietary solutions...

Well I'd settle for just tagging from within one program. What I am worried
about is if I spend hours tagging in picasa...are the photos tagged or just
the library info? So if I lose my HD, my pics are backed up but are the

The problem with tagging is, like all other aspects of technology etc,
that until everyone agrees on a shared spec/ protocol/ system
and supports it, you have no way to tag that is portable/ universally
usable.

If your digital camera has GPS, Picasa automatically tags the location. You
can manually do so also.
I take a photo of a sign or shop that has a location or some reminder of
where the photos are. When I get to a new location, I find another
marker. When I'm desperate and there's no town na

Yes, automatic t
True. And perhaps one day in the future if all cameras embed a standard GPS
tag this will be useful for future pics. But it won't help tag all those old
photos.

Actually, Picasa does know if it's Uncle George. It's obviously not
completely reliable, but it works better than I expected.

That's the idea behind tagging. Specifically, to store items by tag, rather
