It has all the standard mechanisms for tagging and smart listing stuff, so you can be very flexible about how to organize the images. Either just drop them in a folder, or if you're the tagging kind, don't place it anywhere but instead tag it with useful meaning.
The notes field for every image helps me keep track of their source and also write annotations as needed.
The rating system is very useful for narrowing down on candidate options.
A great thing is that all the images you gather won't clutter your filesystem, but instead stays nicely tucked away inside a monolith .lslibrary file.
The only complaints I have are twofold:
1) I want to be able to drag an image from my browser and have it directly placed in the current folder I'm looking at.
2) I want to be able to draw freehand strokes in the annotations department.

"Rapidweaver" and "Courier" (also from RealMac) both support MobileMe so it's not like they'd have to program support from scratch. Users have been requesting it on their forums for years, and still this feature request goes ignored.

In case you don't know what this app is, it is basically a screenshot tool on steroids with the ability to manage your library of shots. It goes beyond screenshot though as it does have the ability to snap an entire web page, a section, etc. It also has decent tools for adding arrows, graphics and text to the snaps. It also has iTunes/iPhoto like abilities to manage and organize your various snaps.
There are a few usability issues, and you can read Doug S's review below as I won't repeat some of the same.
To me the biggest issue I have with this app is its performance. I have a 2.0Ghz Core Duo MacBook, which is not as fast as todays MacBooks but my system is no slouch and can run 99% of the software I buy and use daily with no issues and quite speedily. But LittleSnapper must want a top of the line MacPro to run speedy. Just resizing the window and scrolling through your snaps is painfully slow. Why can iPhoto scroll through 1000's of my photos with out a misstep? I asked the developers about the speed of the app and they basically told me it is what it is and requires a lot of processing power.
My other gripe is that it leaves processes running after you quit the app, by default. I don't want apps that do this without giving me the choice. When I tried to update the app to 1.7 I got an error that some importer was in use and couldn't be accessed. I got around it and figured out it was related to QuickLook as LS has a QuickLook importer for previewing images in the finder with QL.
In the 2+ years I have used it have not seen a lot of changes to the app itself in that time.
I do like some of the features that it has but there are just too many things going against it that it does not make a lot of sense for me to continue using it. Skitch is capable as are a few other of these types of apps so I am sure you can find good alternatives. I really can't give this my recommendation.

However, after all the time the program has barely moved forward.
Firstly, there are the simple things: The grid size changes so that when you open the program it's much smaller than when you had closed it. But touch the slider and it goes right back... Having to do this every time is annoying and I've had to guess at where it should be to get it right on launch.
Then there are other things. You'd think that a 1.7 update would have come with real support for Chrome. It still hasn't.
You'd think that it would allow you to finally use that bookmark to open AND snap a website instead of having to click it once to open the program and then a second time to snap, but you'd be wrong.
You'd think that they'd finally figured out how to make the desired snap size work in the program as well as when they just snap, but they haven't.
You'd think they'd have figured out a way that would allow you to add tags to multiple images without it reseting all an image's tags, but they haven't.
Those are some pretty big issues that still haven't been fixed.
This update? App Store stuff. Yay. Great. So I can now buy the program easier. Oh, wait, already own it. It's been months without an update and that's the one we finally get.
At this point, the only reason I haven't moved to a new system and left LittleSnapper behind is because the best alternative (Zootool) is web-based only and something tells me it would be a real pain to transfer the 3,000 images.
But we'll see. I'm actively looking now.
