F-spot is installed by default. It's under Applications --> graphics. I use it for managing my digital photos, and love it. A friend of mine (a mac user) is looking for an Ubuntu-based photo management tool, and after showing him he is planning on switching to f-spot. In the past (before f-spot came out) I had used digikam under GNOME, but now I don't use any KDE apps under GNOME, so digikam is gone. F-spot is nice and easy to use in my opinion.
