Delicious Library as Home Inventory App
I've been looking for home inventory software for the mac but there's really only one product out there: Home Inventory by Binary Formations and it is woefully out of date. With a few very minor modifications, I think Delicious could easily fill this gap (in fact, looking at the category types like apparel, tools, etc, it seems silly that you can't already do this). I think you could really sell delicious from a different "financial responsibilty", "insurance proof" or even "business inventory" angle then, and not just the "hey check out my dvd collection" angle. As far as I can tell here are the modifications it would require:
* multiple, full-size photos per item (video would be good too but not required)
* custom categories
* take photos with iSight
* an iPhone companion app would be super handy for delicious in general (and I saw that one may be in production), but being able to walk around your house/business to take inventory (even if it's just still photos) with the iphone camera would be excellent.
* maybe some more reporting options (with values, categories, etc)
I think that's really it. The first two items on the list are the only true must-haves. What do you think? (forgive me if this has already been suggested)

Inappropriate?Ohh.. I kind of like the idea of having multiple photos per item. Would be good for insurance purposes.
Luckily, we are hard at work on an iPhone app that should be out soon. Thanks for the feedback!

Inappropriate?I would like to second the notion of custom categories. I have been trying to get some kitchen items (electric grill, etc) in DL2 today and have not found a reasonable way to do this. I bought the things on Amazon, so I know the info is there ;)
I hope this is slated for a future release.
