Organizr: like iPhoto for your browser
Ludicorp has just shipped a Flash-based iPhoto replacement called Organizr, a front-end for its Flickr photo-sharing service. It lives in your browser and does for photo-organizing what gmail does for email: seamlessly merges your mail with your browser. But unlike gmail's closed interface, Flickr has a gloriously open API so that you can build your own apps on top of theirs. iPhoto has reached the meltdown point for me -- nearly 10,000 photos, and adding new ones and marking up my old ones takes so long I've actually gone and cooked dinner while waiting for the beach-ball to finish spinning -- and I'm seriously considering moving all my images to Flickr. Check out the movie. (Disclosure: I'm an advisor to Ludicorp, the company that makes Organizr).
