PictureRetitle 3.0 - Renaming pictures with extreme power!

Imagine this: you've been on a trip of New York and you took pictures of all those famous visitor attractions. Wouldn't it be best for those pictures to have names that actually reflect the subject on it? Of course it would. Why? you ask. Because it exponentially increases the search power of your picture viewing tool (Vista Photo Gallery, Picasa etc.). Of course you can tag your pictures. But will you add several tags to every individual picture? Not likely, since that is way too much work, just like renaming pictures was. Do you share your pictures for instance through Flickr? If so, it is more than likely that those tags get lost in the uploading process. Do you realize that every word in a picture name is actually a visible tag that can not be lost? See how powerful a picture name is? Okay, let's go back to the picture of the New York trip. After you start PictureRetitle, you copy for instance (part) of the New York Wikipedia page into the PictureRetitle dictionary. When renaming, you will have access to all words and almost all phrases within the block of text you copied. That is really powerful and extremly easy. PictureRetitle 3.0 will be launched by the end of october 2008. But you can watch the demo now!
