If your digital camera has GPS, Picasa automatically tags the
location. You can manually do so also.

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
than by folder. But there's no way she's going to sit and manually tag
10,000 pics. There's no 'automatic' way to tag, because the software doesn't
know if that's Uncle George or which vacation it was.

Super. This is easier than writing the AppleScript I mentioned before.
Even easier when I can just download the Automator workflow. I hate
writing AppleScript. Lousy language.

MS did fix that 2GB limit. First they raised it to 4GB and with the
latest version they claim no limit except one imposed by the OS. I have

The two programs are curiously different.
Outlook will allow multiple .pst files and will even let you specify the
location for the .pst file. Unfortunately, Entourage only has one
database file and you have to keep it at the required location.

Curiously, Entourage puts everything into one huge file. It doesn't
matter if you create new folders. They still are part of the same huge
database file.

Have you experimented with using rsync? It is native to the mac and can
be run through applescript I think. From what I recall, rsync will back
up only the changes to the file although I can not find that explicitly
stated one way or the other at the moment.
