Tagging, Tag cloud, organizing by event, upload capable from portable devices as well as computers. Written on a LAMP system (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP). I have a special tag to identify pictures I want to rotate through the main page. It's still not quite where I want it to be but my stuff generally is a work in progress.

Don't know about ultra-wide but syslog entries can be pretty long same with the output of ps.
I do try to break up my code lines so they're readable but sometimes there's not a good place to use a line break.
And of course I'm not going full screen so it's good to have space on either side to overlap screens vs having to flip back and forth.

I have asked if I can though. Still waiting on whether they'll let me do so. We'll see

That you say all monitors completely suck when used in Portrait mode when you should have said the monitors you've used completely suck in Portrait mode. My Acer monitors work just fine in Portrait and rotated 180* with no distortion.

The bad part are the Linux drivers. With this setup, the monitors are in two domains. When I move the domains to overlap, I can move my mouse pointer into various monitors however I can't get back, I have to go counter clockwise to get the pointer back to the center monitor. So I can move from center to top but not top to center without going to the left monitor first.

I've spread my graphics programs across all four monitors when I have a large image. You get the bezels in the way but it seems to work well enough for my low-key usage.

Upside down? Flipped? Rotated 180*?

Two video cards that support two monitors each.
But at work I have a laptop with an attached monitor and two Linux systems using Synergy to let me use the laptop mouse and keyboard on all three. It's a bit wonky though as the Mac version of Synergy isn't bug free yet.

And I custom built my own wooden stand using TV wall mounts for the monitors.

I manage Unix systems so having it be wide screen helps with longer lines.
But I also write code so having a portrait screen helps when I'm reading documentation (PDFs for example).
So I have a four monitor setup. Two Landscape (one reversed above my number 1 landscape monitor) and Two Portrait; one to the left and one to the right of the two center monitors. Works well for web browsing and coding where I want more side to side screen space and gaming and works well when coding and I need directories to the left and pdfs to the right. The top screen has my debugger or Firebug if I'm working on a web page.

For me, rpg.net, tdpri.com, sport-touring.org. I also pay for access to the Ubisoft forums by buying their product (Rocksmith and $1,500 of DLC). I've paid money for other sites but stopped paying and going for various reasons. Sport-touring.net was bought out by Vertical Scope and the place is inundated by ads. The posts have dropped off quite a bit and folks are over on STo instead. Sportbikes is another one bought by Vertical Scope that I originally paid for access but dropped off of after the purchase. I paid for access to another gaming site but when they changed the layout to make it impossible to read on a tablet, I bailed and haven't been back.
I've had the Disable Advertising checkbox for Slashdot for years so I figure I've paid my dues with postings, as inane as they are
I also have a server for my own personal stuff that I pay about $1,000 a year for. Lots of space and ram and pretty good support. Been using them for years. I host my pictures (32,000 pics), blog, vanity site, forum for my ex's hobby, and various programming and game sites. I don't use any advertising. I figure I don't get enough traffic to justify it

Yea, I just got through pitching a bunch of old books and games that don't work on my computer any more but I have about 150' of RPGs and Board Games. Currently playing Mage Knight with my girlfriend (she insisted

Shame on you for not knowing that ladies can have girlfriends.

I think the problem is if the ads weren't so intrusive, folks wouldn't go looking for an ad blocker (or write one). I think I was first annoyed (that I can recall) by the "hit the monkey" ads. I didn't click it however it was distracting. I started in on hosts file but eventually I found ABP and started using that. I use a tablet for much of my off-computer browsing and there are enough crazy ads that my browser crashes to the home screen several times a week. Just this morning I went to a news site and there was a video which auto-started.
That means you'll have more of a problem getting people off of ABP than if the ads weren't so intrusive in the beginning as to have folks looking for a solution like ABP. Heck, new users now are inundated by intrusive ads and popups not to mention drive by malware. Folks like me recommend ABP and NoScript by default.
