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 pro and all tags remain. It also seems to allow multiple tag search which of course is a must. So on the surface it seems picasa will do what I want.
