Jim's been paying attention, and wrote in, "The viewer with the question on how to sort dupes on 250GB of photos should probably check out your Tekzilla Daily episode from 7/9/2012, Automatically Delete Duplicate Files, where Veronica demonstrated a program called "ANTI-TWIN" searching for duplicate files."
