Ask HN: I have 1k photos from my weekend away, what should I do?

Photographers will talk about their "workflow," where they spend time after a shoot to flag and cull. That's fine for professionals, but for you and me, it's a chore I'd rather skip.

Most photo managers use timeline views that make shutter-happy events overwhelm all the other events that might only have a couple shots.

I built something different: it uses random sampling and hierarchical tags to make browsing and rediscovery fun, even for very large (500k+) libraries.

Details are here: https://photostructure.com/faq/why-photostructure/#fast-and-...

(I'm making the PhotoStructure beta available for free in exchange for feedback, if you want to try it out.)

Thanks, I'll have a look. I've tried out a random sampling before, actually works quite well!

ps. I've built something that more or less does that, only works with Flickr albums and the interface is very rough: https://ash.code27.co.za/
