I think all these PIM type applications that are not handling syncing with mobile devices well, are probably dying a slow death.


I agree. If you have a mobile device, then electronic notes are a replacement for paper notes. No point in not being able to take them with you.

J-Mac, I think we were all assuming that Apple was the only company backward enough to go to the Palm OS days of non-removable batteries, and it is rarely listed in the specs. When I found out some Android devices are doing the same, I started doing Google searches for the device + "replacement battery."

Currently the only way to get ICS on the Photon will disable 4G. However I would not have 4G anyway under either the Virgin Mobile plan (unless I get the Evo V 4g) or the PlatinumTel one. Supposedly the Photon is slated to get ICS from Motorola in 4Q 2012.

Another option: Motorola Photon (BYOP) + ACRS Wireless + PlatinumTel
Then I would have a world phone with above average battery life.

My workaround: Instead rely on the data you can store within the image file.

Hmm..I was naively assuming Windows 7 was doing just that. I'll need to check

What I found is that I have to add a folder to the Pictures library to get a proper "Arrange by Tag" option.

And thanks for the warning!!

Living Room / Photo Taggng (n00b) question
« on: July 02, 2012, 06:34 AM »
Never mind, I think I found it.

details
I finally am getting around to organizing my digital photos, I have everything sorted by folders named according to the yyyy-mm and photos named yyyy-mm-dd.extension and intend, and have already started, tagging photos based on occasion, where I used folders for that purpose earlier. I was able to tag multiple photos easily within the Windows 7 Explorer. The thing is, I haven't tagged photos in a while, and I don't see any obvious way to view by tag in Explorer or Google drive. In Picasa and probably in Windows I can do a search by tag and find photos, leading me to think tagging is only good for searches. Is there a basic photo organizer that just lists tags on the side like folders so anyone can just browse the tags? It seems like I just made everything harder to find for everyone.
