Hey its not a so called bad word like ****. Its an open source photo management software for Linux. I dont know if **** is the motivation behind naming the software. Anyways i liked the software very much. The best feature to be highlighted is the way F-spot imports photo from your digicam. The import is done in a hierarchical manner. Oops am i getting too techy !!.. Well lets take an example. Suppose you are going for a week long trip to Canada. Everyday you took pit stops at say Montreal, Vancouver, Toronto respectively and took your favorite snaps. After the trip you are back at home. You put the digicam memcard in your laptop and copy the pics. Lets say you want to share only the photos from Vancouver. Well you have to sort the pics with date and select them accordingly. Here comes F-spot. F-spot imports the photos from your memcard and separates them based on the date which you took them.
The created folders will be of the Format
Year/Day
You can navigate to the day where you visited Vancouver. see and share the pics.
You can do all sort of basic photo editing like you do in picassa. With export to web albums feature, You can upload your pics to picassa, flicker etc..
Try F-spot and let me know the feedback....
Bucket List for u huh..!! ;)
