      From 2nd picture below, we see that the free version allows a maximum of only 3 tags per photo.
  • Tag does not automatically save photos, you must manually do this by clicking the save icon
  • Before you can perform a search, you need to build an index.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • It will take a few minutes for the index to build, but you need only perform this once. As you edit your photos, the index will be automatically updated when the photos are saved.
  • Add negative/anti words Search by a rating Search geocoded photos via an address
  • A third search method is to click words in the tag cloud
  • If you modify a file outside of iTag - in Adobe Photoshop for example - then iTag won't recognise the new metadata until you rebuild the index
  • tag manager helps allow you to control your vocabulary and to import and export tag lists
  • How to replace a misspelled tag

    Great that it stores as metadata, and other applications can read it. Bad Free version allows a maximum of ONLY 3 tags per photo. (see section on 'How to register iTag'. it is not written but displayed in the picture. Making it somewhat un-searchable.) => -10 Index build upon first use. If tags changed through other programs though, it needs to be re-indexed. Highlights Pink - gd Green - bad Blue - how it works etc Yellow - general

Firefox addon addon addons comparison FireFox extension memory

shared by LeisHowI on 12 Jul 10 - Cached
  • LeisHowI on 12 Jul 10
     
    My attempted translation. BarTab: There are two key points which I'll explain using some scenarios. 1. If the many tabs were left open from a previous firefox session, it would take a long time when you reopen firefox. 2. When using firefox, we sometimes end up opening a whole lot of pages. This in turn consumes a lot of memory, causing lag to occur in firefox. (Copied) BarTab can solve these problems 1. When restoring tabs from a previous session is set to put them on my bar tab 2. When I don't visit a tab for a while, set to put it on my bar tap after x hour / minute / second Time can be set TooManyTabs BarTab is more convenient since it's automated. I feel that TooManyTabs is more like an addon meant to manage pages/tabs. Although it also does function as a memory saving tool. This is done so manually; where one has to select a page to be placed into the TMT placeholder. They way it does this is through capturing pages and turning them into bookmarks; and thus releasing memory. To reload a tab, one has to select the 'column' in which the page that was placed in TMT resides, and then again clicking on that page to re-open it. This manual method of reopening pages, as compared to BarTab, is less convenient or intuitive. 'Situitation method'? Because of the way it is used, I think it is more suitable as a tool that operates more like ReaditLater. With the function: page history and cateogory management. This is the advantage of using TMT; something that BarTab cannot do. 'from this point of view, they can actually be counted as different tools??' So really, there's no real problem even if you choose to you both simultaneously. You can simply choose what you want based on your needs.

features note KeepNote notes manual guide help

shared by LeisHowI on 18 Jul 10 - Cached
  • KeepNote offers a convenient debugging tool for when notes are not saving properly. You can open any note as a raw text file in the text editor of your choice. This is specified with the Text Editor helper application.
    • LeisHowI
      LeisHowI on 18 Jul 10
       
      eg, using notepad++ instead to edit items. overriding the lack of language support or spellcheck currently.
  • Screenshots can be taken very easily in KeepNote using Ctrl+Insert. KeepNote uses helper applications to actually take the screenshot.
    • LeisHowI

      Since it asks for the launch link in the preferences. It works well with picpick as it runs with parameters as well.
  • Additional notes: To be specific, KeepNote expects the screenshot program to take a single command-line option: the output image filename.
  • ...45 more annotations...
  • filename is a tempfile managed by KeepNote
  • After the screenshot program finishes, KeepNote will un-minimize, attempt to read the saved screenshot, and insert the image into the currently open note. The tempfile will also be removed.
  • KeepNote maintains an index of each notebook to facilitate faster navigation and linking. This index is stored as a SQLite database and its file is located at your_notebook/__NOTEBOOK__/index.sqlite.
  • if you happen to create/modify notes outside of KeepNote (which is not guaranteed to be supported in all cases), you should let the index know about these changes by choosing the menu Tools > Update Notebook Index.
  • If you use backup software or a network filesystem with your notebook, you may experience performance issues with the index
  • If this becomes an issue, you can specify an alternative location for the index file (say a location on a local disk). To specify an alternative location, use the option Edit > Preferences > This Notebook > Alternative index location.
  • shortcut keys Ctrl+N (New Page) and Ctrl+Shift+M (New Folder).
  • envision KeepNote being used in a research setting where you have notes that follow both journal (time-sensitive, linear organization, pictured on the left) and reference (time-insensitive, hierarchical, pictured on the right) styles.
  • istview also allows sorting by both creation time, note title, and manual sorting.
  • Another feature that I have focused on is image manipulation.
  • Notes are most valuable when you can easily access them. That means accessing your notes on multiple platforms
  • All notes are stored in UTF-8 HTML files and nested in ordinary folders on the file system. That means you can read your notes with nothing more than a web browser.
  • Portability.
  • KeepNote can easily save notebooks to a USB drive. The KeepNote application can also be installed to a USB drive, so that moves with the notes.
  • At this time KeepNote does store some user preference information in the Application Data folder, but this should not prevent using KeepNote in a portable way.
  • because KeepNote does not store any information in the Windows Registry
  • can use drag and drop in either the treeview or listview to rearrange your notes.
  • KeepNote can store any file as an "attachment" to the notebook.
  • Autosave. Notebooks are automatically saved every 10 seconds. This interval can be changed or disabled in the Edit > Preferences menu.
  • Nesting in listview. Another subtle feature is that the listview can display nested folders and notes as well. The collapse state of folders in the listview is saved separately.
  • listview, you can sort notes by many criteria (e.g. title, creation time, modification time, etc) by clicking on the column headers.
  • Sorting.
  • none of the columns are activated for sorting, the listview goes into "manual" sort mode, which displays the notes as they appear in the treeview and allows you to drag and drop notes into any order you wish.
  • One very subtle but convenient feature is that the listview sorting is saved on a per folder basis
  • KeepNote also supports links between notes in a notebook.
  • Simply start a link with Ctrl+L or clicking the link button and start typing the name of a note. An auto-complete drop down list will appear allowing you to pick the note you wish to link to
  • Another way to create a link is to use copy-and-paste. First, select a note in the treeview or listview that you wish to link to and copy it (Ctrl+C or the menu Edit > Copy). Next, navigate to the note in which you wish to make the link, and paste into the text editor to create a link.
  • Note: note-to-note links will never break (unless you delete the target note). Feel free to rename a note or move it around. Links will still point to the right notes.
  • Custom note icons
  • Each note can have up to two icons associated with it: a normal icon and an optional open version of the icon. If the open version of an icon is set it will be used when the note is expanded in the treeview or listview
  • After you select a new icon, it will be added to the Notebook-specific Icons list for future reuse. A copy of the icon image is now stored in your notebook.
  • several options for images in their right click menu
  • Resize Image...
  • KeepNote will display the image at its new size, while keeping the original image file unaltered (original size).
  • Double clicking the image or choosing the View Image menu option will display the image at its original size in the image viewer of your choice.
  • feature is convenient for shrinking large images into thumbnails within your notebook.
  • For very large notebooks, a treeview (the left side of the window) becomes overwhelming, a problem I have run into with many other programs. In these situations, a listview (top portion of the window), becomes important.
  • Spell checking is available only on Linux and Mac OS X at this time
  • can add/change a keyboard shortcut to any menu option in KeepNote.
  • Simply place your mouse cursor over the menu item which you would like to customize and press your desired shortcut combination (e.g. Ctrl+I)
  • To remove a shortcut altogether, press Ctrl+Backspace
  • Backup and restore
  • Currently, the only format implemented is HTML
  • The hierarchy (as seen in the treeview) will be exported and all note-to-note links will be translated from KeepNote's format (e.g. nbk:///nodeid...) into relative file links that will work in all web browsers.
  • Helper applications are other programs installed on your computer that KeepNote can use to perform certain operations, such as image editing, web browsing, text editing, etc. These applications are chosen from the KeepNote Preference dialog,

  • Includes a powerful, versatile search function that indexes metadata as well as filenames and paths
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • mouse over to the edges of the screen, where you will find all the tools that you need to browse, view and tag your images
  • But note that in order to really take advantage of what this program can do you really have to become familiar with the different mouse manipulations
  • (e.g. right-click and move to move selected sets of images around – see the video tutorials). You also might want to become familiar with the various keyboard shortcuts, esp. the ones that concern tagging images, as they will make the process super fast and easy. Note that when hovering over any command icon in the interface a text label will show at the bottom of the screen to explain it (although a tool-tip would have been better, I think).
  • can group by name, by path, by resolution, by number views, by time/date accessed, by color, and of course by tags
  • Automatic tag suggestions: for quick tagging, Viewer2 can suggest tags based on other tagging activity.
  • Lasso-type tool: an innovative tool that can be used while tagging to select multiple images
  • Searching: the search function is one of the most versatile and powerful that you could hope for
  • It is able to field sophisticated queries such as give me the word "bla" with "2007" in the path excluding the tag "wallpaper" as an example (see the manual section for an overview).
  • search by tags, by name, location, size, etc.
  • Customization: most everything about this program can be customized in the settings, from the size of the thumbnails to the way various elements behave.
  • Memory use: only 16 megs in memory, despite the nifty, visual pyrotechnics.

  • not entirely sure if enabling the syncing will automatically write the tags that you have added earlier but either adding (or removing) any tag will trigger the IPTC update for the file. Or, you can use dbtool to sync manually (something like “dbtool exportiptc c:\Photos”).
  • a small tool that recursively parse the whole image repository to automatically assign tags would be nice.
  • The new dbtool does this automatically. You can simply add a file in a directory and the tags in the file are applied to all the subdirectories. It can also tag files based on the tags it sees in the directory names, so if you have the tags “2009″ and “holiday” in the system and a directory named “holiday 2009″, dbtool will apply both tags to the images in the directory.
  • Would it be possible integrate this new dbtool inside the “MSWindows explorer”?
  • It is possible to add any program in the menu, as long as the program takes command line arguments.

  • FotoTagger is a free utility that lets you tag photos with small descriptive notes on any part of an image
  • does not ‘spoil’ the image because the notes can be easily removed and also hidden with a click of a button.
  • photos also can be shared across the web along with the comments or annotations.
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • with FotoTagger we can pinpoint any element on the photo and place a comment on it.
  • Photos (JPEGs) can be given a caption that’s like a label for the whole photo or a tag which can be pointed towards any element in the photo (also called a callout).
  • An image can be given only one caption but it can have multiple tags
  • Fonts and colors can be customized for tags and captions
  • They can be shown as rectangles or as balloons.
  • Tags and captions do not significantly add to the size of the image as they are stored within the image file in text format.
  • also can be revealed and hidden with a single click within FotoTagger (thus, displaying the image with and without tags).

      Viewing enabled only if within a particular program?
  • technically inclined can use the image information tabs in the bottom panel to view specific data like EXIF, IPTC, image properties, histogram and of course the tags for the image
  • Comment tab is for entering a more descriptive note on the particular image or the whole album.
  • Single images or a bunch with all its annotations can be exported (and imported back) to and from Flickr
  • While exporting, you can also perform a resize operation
  • also lets us publish annotated pictures to our blogs (Blogger and LiveJournal). If the image size is too large for blogs, an alert pops up requesting permission to resize the image.
  • Exporting to HTML as whole folders or as individual files is also a two step process.
  • get are HTML pages that include the annotated image with tags which can be hidden with a click of a button. These are viewable in any browser and do not require FotoTagger for displaying the tags.
  • Creating animated slideshows and presentations
  • fourth way is to send annotated images by email. Send it with tags merged into the image automatically through FotoTagger which launches your default email application.
  • But cosmetics aside, FotoTagger does the basic job of captioning and tagging quite well.
  • plug-in which allows us to capture an image straight from either IE or Firefox into FotoTagger is not updated for the latest version of the Firefox browser.

    I don't know if it counts as 'real' tagging, and it doesn't say if other programs or services read that data. Interesting I suppose, if you like annotating things.
