Organizing your digital photos

Organizing Your Photos don't you just love your digital camera?

After all, you can just snap and snap and snap and never run out of film (or pay for it for that matter). But now that you have megabytes and megabytes of memories, how do you organize them? Since your digital camera automatically stores the date and time every picture is taken, I recommend setting up a folder hierarchy.

Start with the My Pictures Folder. Then, create a folder for the year. Then put the months as folders underneath. Makes finding your photos a cinch.

If your collection is truly huge, though, I recommend Google's free Picasa Software. It allows you to sort and catalog every digital photo you've ever taken. That way you can search for "just pictures of your kids" or photos taken before 2002. It's that easy. Picasa can even do automatic facial recognition on your photos to make finding all the pictures of weird Uncle Harold a breeze.

Checking the health of your Internet connection has never been easier with my site of the night, Broadband Reports. Click on Tools in the blue menu for a number of online resources. Check your speed, security, and transmission quality. Are you getting the speed your ISP promised? Find out at broadbandreports.com.

I'm Eric Spellmann taking you to the Next Level.
