How to organize your exported photos from Flickr?

According to a recent announcement from Flickr, the users with the free account may lose some of their photos if they don't update to a paid plan. Luckily Flickr is providing a way to export all of your photos and videos together with some meta data including useful things such as tags and albums. So we decided to write a small script, with the purpose of sorting the files in folders and extracting that meta data in a format, which can be later recognized by TagSpaces. The script iterates through all the media files in the export folder and copies the found files in sub folders. If file is part of album, a folder with the album's name is create and the file is copied there. If this is not the case the script create a folder, which name corresponds to the date when the image was taken, and copies it there. In addition to that it parses the provided JSON file and extract the tags, the description and the comments if available. This information is saved in readable for TagSpaces JSON files, in the .ts sub folder of the folder where the image was copied previously.

The great new TagSpaces 3.0 is out now after it has been in the works for the last year. We overhauled the entire concept and remade it from the ground up. But fear not, it is still the smartest way to organize your files and one of the best productivity app out there. The user interface was redesigned to increase the overall usability and speed of the application. We used React.js, which is a JavaScript library for building modern and fast user interfaces.

Evernote's recent change in its pricing plans, restricting non-paying users to only two machines, have been an eye-opener to many. Even though the cloud-crazed hype is trying to convince us otherwise, with all the marketing tools at its disposal, keeping your private data in the cloud, and especially via vendor-locked solutions such as Evernote, had never been a good idea. With such vendor-locked, proprietary services, you do not own your own data, and have no control over its storage, meaning access to your own notes might be severely limited at any time, as it happened just recently.

As you already may know we at TagSpaces love files. Files are the artifacts of our digital life and such we working hard to provide a consistent and convenient interface to them across operating systems like Windows, OS X or Android. Our goal is to enable you to organize and order these artifacts in a way, which is meanwhile common in many cloud-based platforms, but entirely or partially missing in the default file manager build in the modern operating systems. We are convinced that not all your files have to be uploaded or shared with these cloud services and this is driving us to further develop the application. Meanwhile the effort for keeping the project running with the desired quality on all platforms has grown tremendously and we started to look for some sources of income in order to further develop it. So some months ago we decided to offer a premium version of TagSpaces, containing some advanced features. And today we think that TagSpaces Pro is ready to be released to the public.
