...same on Mac. I'm using some as desktop pics on iPad and will collect/backup them on Mac.

Yes, very nice. I copy some of the pictures "snapped" from the LIFE app.

Once they are on the computer I am putting them in an iPhoto album. I subscribed to Everyday Food so I will have a whole set of recipes. I also have an album for the Apartment Therapy website where I am clipping cool pics from them. I love looking at decorating books and this way I can make my own.

One question, does iPhoto copy the pictures into its own directory system like Calibre does? I want to make sure I am not duplicating and that the pics are only in one spot. If so, can I specify where I want it to put them to make sure it gets backed up by Dropbox?

If you like clipping and stuff, why not get the evernote app so you can organize them? and add text if needed?

Could do. But better would be to screenshots. Connect iPad, open desktop Evernote app, clip pics around, tag, and have it synched to all your devices organized

I have been experimenting with the Evernote app. But then at work today I was out of wifi range and could not access anything, so I don't think this is the solution for me. I thought it would download your data to the device for off-line viewing and then update it when you were back in range, but it seems the Evernote app will not work if you are not on-line. Very disappointing. I would be okay with even read-only and no editing, but I really want something where I can make notes and edit them off a website and have it sync to the iPad for off-line reading later.
