Hi Thomas, In fact I started thinking of it by explaining to my mother (grandma-like because of the age diff) how to get the photos from her brand new smartphone and get them in her computer... No way... But then I realized it is pretty common for all age-users have similar problems, not to say keep things tidy, which rarely happens and ends up bulking TONS of gigs that will never be used again... The problem is that it takes time and effort at the end of the day...
So, why not automating the annoying part of the history? Once organized, the file and folder abstractions, present in most people's mind, either in a local browser of in a web browser will do the rest and you will be able to browse media that makes sense, not just infinite plain folders containing kilometers of thumbnailed (ages to generate them by the way) and date-filename files... Glad to see I was finally capable of explaining the concept correctly!!! Somebody else there sharing opinion? Thank you all very much for your time! ;-) 2015-03-24 11:20 GMT+01:00 Thomas Mayer <[email protected]>: > Hi, > > Francisco Carriedo Scher schrieb am 22.03.2015 19:37: > > (use something like tags and metadata to categorize content) > > I really like the idea, and I am sure this feature will be used by a > lot of people, because: > > a) Have you tried to explain to your grandmother, where all the > pictures from her new digital camera land on their computer, when she > just follows the dialog for importing the pictures? > > b) Hierarchical data organisation is not working for you.
