CyberCamp 08

As much as I have done in the last few hours I don’t feel like I have a lot to show for it. My moodle site is coming along and it is starting to take form, but I spent the last hour or so looking at Web2.0 image editing solutions.  There are quite a bunch out there now, but not many of them are very good.  Of the many that I looked at there are only two that start to give the kind of control that I think we would need for more advanced stuff, splashup and Adobe PhotoShopExpress.  They both seem to be good, but I wonder about how well they could work over the school network, and whether or not they would eat too much bandwidth.  I also need to figure out how we are going to do digital asset management, DAM.  While there are a lot of basic image viewers out there, I am having a hard time finding a DAM app. that serves that function along with tags.  Tags are a much better way to sort images especially if there are many of them.  Right now the to DAM apps. are Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, and Apple Aperture.  The Adobe DAM will work on any machine, and Aperture will only work on Mac.  I am hoping to get something that is easy, and feature packed for as little as possible.  Any ideas?

Anyway I really need to get on the course a bit more.  All of this stuff is important, but in the end if you can use one
decent image editor you can use any of them.
