    I really dislike using Picasa - it has far too many features turned "on" for my liking, like always prompting me to detect everyone's face and use up 100% of my CPU.

    I would like a similar program - but one that doesn't feel like malware. The only reason I use picasa instead of just managing my pictures with folders in Windows is because it lets me see the geotag of the photos, so any replacement would have to do that just as well. I love to geotag my trips.

    Not too big on other features...I have Adobe Bridge installed, but I don't use it too much, not sure if it supports geotagging (I've already geotagged the photos with Geotag Pro [great tool by the way, well worth the $4]).
