I keyword every photo I keep if only to locate it to a country and location. Thereafter I cant be bothered to put in too much extra keyword data.

I can usually remember which country it was taken it so having that keyword reduces the count then I can usually remember the year and content. So I would keyword with Spain, Trees, Leaves, Autumn for a picture I took in Spain of autumn leaves. I dont take too many pictures of the same thing unless I am doing a particular theme and anyway I can always add '2010' or whatever year to narrow the search further.

All my pictures are in directories by camera and country/month/year e.g. Spain-May2012. I also do Dance-May2012 and if I was in Australia or wherever I would have a directory of Australia-May2012.

Lightroom automatically catalogues by date and time.
