Isn't Picasa a frontend for Google's online service with some basic image manipulation thrown in? (Correct me if I'm wrong here.)
And digiKam doesen't sport a time-based way of navigating your photos like F-Spot does. (iPhoto inspired if I'm not mistaken.)
I never said those apps where great. The only Mono-app I actually use is Gnome-do. Beagle? I didn't mention it. Be carefull with your assumptions.
Even though I don't like the mono apps personaly I'm able to see that they're useful to a lot of people. That can't be a bad thing?
Now, since Java is now OSS I guess it's better to make stuff in Java if you're actually creating a new app and want it to write it in managed language.
If I'm playing music locally(or want to put music on a iPod) I do actually use Rythmbox.
(But currently I'm more into using mpd/Sonata)
No. That would be "Picasa Web Albums". Picasa is full featured photo management software. See here:

No. DigiKam does support time based navigation. See here:

Indeed - that was me being sarcastic.
Beagle? I didn't mention it. Be carefull with your assumptions.
I know. It was offered as a counter-point to your general "Mono lets you write unique and amazing applications" theme.
P.S. Sssshhh! don't tell anyone but these internet sites are really cool:

LOL.
Yes mono apps are *sooo great*. I never heard of picasa or digikam. I never heard of tagore or basket notes. I never knew that the flagship mono application, beagle, got removed from gnome and replaced with tracker. Whats that you say? Banshee? Perhaps you might like to investigate rhythmbox, exaile or Amarok.
