Adobe Lightroom

Adobe Lightroom is out of beta and, if you are a guy/girl who loves their stats about everything, then this may be a program for you. It takes the meta data from your shots and allows you to organize it by this. This may not sound necessary, and in actuality, it probably isn't, but its fun to see that you shot 547 images with your 20mm in the last 2 months, and only 12 with your 80-200.

In addition, you can rate every image you import if you like. In the conventional 0-5 * fashion. You can then sort say... everything with 4 or more stars, and in theory sort out all the lousy, blurry, out of focus, under-exposed, shots we take (not that you or I take those kind of shots ever... just for those of us who do).

It of course has the standard: toning, filters, other basic adjustments available for use on your images. I just started using it, but I imagine it will be more of a display tool, and more functional, intuitive adobe bridge.
