One step towards organizing the online photo mess

Here's my view: the online organization of photos is a mess. I didn't say it was bad, I just think it is disorganized with no standards or structure, and it confuses me.

A long time ago, I stopped uploading photos to Facebook because I feel that it's cumbersome, and it reduces the quality of my photos.

Now, there are zillions of websites in which you can store your favorite photos, but finding the right one is a headache for me, because I like easy-to-use quality standards, and I like knowing that what I'm using is the best for me.

Somebody needs to write a short and easy-to-read book on photo sites, and how people should design and use them.

One thing that makes me feel better about this issue is new innovations in online photo organization, such as geotagging, which is helping Microsoft keep its head above the water.

Google Earth is really cool because its a big map, and it's easy to use. Many online photo services are not easy to use. Solution? Put photos on a map. This is geotagging.

Hopefully someday I can get my own photography in the right place on the web. I am confident that soon this will be easier to do.
