It appears reading exif data is not entirely impossible, but here's a mild impression by an image hosting giant like flickr about what is involved to get that even remotely up and running, that is without doing server voodoo... http://code.flickr.net/2012/06/01/parsing-exif-client-side-using-javascript-2/ Theoretically, to get exif data from what you want to be external images, you'd still have to... - import the images - thus have TiddlyWiki turn them into base64 encoded blops - read exif data - delete them again Perhaps it could be possible for a tiddler embedding an external image to access the exif data of the embedded image. This requires loading the image in the browser first, of course. But then, looking at... https://github.com/jseidelin/exif-js I read in the example.html... Click the images to read Exif data. The first image tests reading single > tags, while the other two simply show all available data. > *Note: *these examples will not work if running from a local file:// URL. So, that's that, no local file access... and usually no cross-domain access either. So the major disadvantage of this way of importing images is that they are NOT INDIVIDUAL Tiddlers. > > This is the part that made your browser go crazy, having all those megabytes of images displayed at the same time. Perhaps try a different approach: Take a look at the file format you get using TiddlyWiki's new export functions, e.g. JSON... find a suitable desktop app to produce such a file from the image names extracted from your folder, if only excel / calc, whereas each individual tiddler definition contains that <<ximg>> line in its text field.

The desillusioning bit is: it's truly not. Just try to find even a desktop app that exports exif data for you in a way that you think "oh, that works well". Found one?

To do that, first work those image names. I always use a software like AntRenamer to rename those stupidly numbered images titles by the date-time stamp they were taken, e.g. 2014-12-31_23-59-59.
