A real photolog?

So I’ve spent the last few days with my head bur­ried deep inside apple­script (always amazes me just what you can do with this stuff). I’m work­ing on automat­ing my pho­tolog stuff and I thought rather than just re-invent the wheel I’d see what else is out there first.
I found the basic idea I want­ed to use at The Tao of Mac in the arti­cle HOWTO Process Images With Apple­Script and jhead, but as always no script does every­thing you want, for a start the image files I have don’t have EXIF info, so I need­ed to find anoth­er way to rename the files.
While dig­ging through Apple’s site for some info I came across a nice list of resources which includ­ed some sam­ple sub-rou­tines, very handy stuff.
Dig­i­tal Pho­tog­ra­phy Blog has an infor­ma­tive and link filled arti­cle on Intro­duc­tion to Pho­to­blogs and MoBlogs, which includ­eds a link to the king­dom of squir­rels arti­cles A PHOTOLOG IN FIVE EASY STEPS so that’s where I’m think­ing of going at the moment.
Cre­at­ing a sep­a­rate, but con­nect­ed weblog to run just as a pho­tolog. Now if I can just fig­ure out how to FTP with apple­script every­thing will be great.
Some­times I real­ly, real­ly do with Win­dows had a script­ing lan­guage… oh well.
