After organizing my movies and TV shows with Mythbuntu/Linux, Music with iTunes, my pictures are next.

In the past, they have been organized in folders based on trips or similar subject matter. And they will still be backup up this way on an external hard drive(so I can get to them in Linux/Windows). So, I'm not quite as unorganized as the videos and mp3s used to be. But, I'm still trying to figure out which program would best fit my needs. I take plenty of pictures (and multiples of each shot to pick out the best one), so I am looking for a program that can handle this.

I've never used iPhoto or Aperture, and the new iPhoto 09 has some cool features that I could use. (Locations!) I have used Photoshop before, but that was to edit pictures. And I will still need to do basic editing and cropping, and I'm unsure about touching up pictures in iPhoto or Aperture. Although they may be just fine at doing it.

What do you use? Which program do you like better?.
