I'd like to get some opinions from everyone about how they organize their digital photo collections. Right now I am using gallery2 and I'm not happy with how I started. I have about 1,000 family photos spanning 4 years in there right now. I've made the mistake of organizing them by family member rather than by date. What I've learned is that my gallery visitors don't want to see them organized by person, but by event. Of course, recent events are the most interesting and so date organization would work better for me. Also, I'd like to attach a story to a group of pictures to sort of digitally scrapbook special events. I almost want a blog/gallery jammed together. So, since I'll pretty much have to start from scratch, what do you recommend as tools for the job?
iPhoto is amazing. You can tag each picture and make albums on the fly and instant slideshows. I love it. I think you can even post to a photo blog with it, but I have not tried it yet. I am still using Gallery2 for online photo sharing.
