comment What are good photography projects?
Similarly, Kevin Clarke did this with a red couch, and subsequently published an art book about it. I find it fascinating. - amazon.com/Red-Couch-Portrait-America/dp/0912383054

comment Digital Camera for Grandpa
In my experience the Easy Share cameras are mediocre, but I did just purchase an Eye-Fi card for my D90 and I love it. I will say this about it: The setup is somewhat complicated, but when you have everything set where you want it, it works wonders. :)

comment What tagging system do you use?
Tags are always a difficult thing to master. I always find it's best to ask yourself, "What would someone be searching for if they wanted to find this picture?", and then add the appropriate tags accordingly.

comment Can software auto-detect image focus?
Good question, been wondering this myself.

comment Cause of grainy photos?
I rarely use the Live View on my D90, I don't like it, I find it too slow for focusing and way too slow on the shutter speed (since it has to close first, and then re-open it). I always use the viewfinder. ;)

Thanks! This was what I was looking for (minus the part about the sensor size, since I can't really replace or do anything about that :P).

comment Cause of grainy photos?
So a better lens will help, but not by a lot? I figured as much. I've read online the stock D90 lens isn't really all that great... perhaps I'll invest in the Nikon 18-200mm lens... I hear it's much better for general-purpose shooting. I'll also tweak the ISO settings on my camera a bit, too, I didn't realize it had that much of an impact on the quality. Thanks.

comment Cause of grainy photos?
I'm not zooming for composition, I'm zooming simply to view the quality of the image at its original resolution (not shrunk down). The amount of noise when viewing the image at its full resolution at 100% zoom was rather large, which is why I asked about it.
