I found a version that worked with emacs21 here: http://www.update.uu.se/~ams/home/emacs/lisp/image-dired.el
I had to (setq user-emacs-directory "/home/drewp/emacs/") to make it work.
Here's a screenshot: http://bigasterisk.com/post/image-dired-mode.png
I'm in the middle of adding tags to the 4th image. The docs claim I could select multiple images at once, but in my 2 minutes of checking this out I didn't see how to do that.
Metadata nuts would probably be interested to know that the tags are written to a file with lines like "/path/to/file;tag1".
Image nuts would probably care that image-dired uses imagemagick to make its own jpg thumbnails, which it keeps in a directory called image-dired. I.e. there seems to be no attempt at sharing thumbnails with other systems.
