Where My Photos At?
Well, Flickr can tell you! Yesterday, Flickr (purchased by Yahoo!) launched geotagging. You can now tag where you took your photos. There have been 1.2 million photos geotagged in 24 hours. What’s the big deal? Well, it further enhances the current tagging ability of photos. It is not a virtual memory - you now know the where, when and what of your albums.
Check out the map of our photograph taken in Times Square. You can see other people’s photos from the area. I have geotagged most of my images and will be adding more shortly.
For those of you who are from areas not well covered by Yahoo Maps, our project Panoramio may be interesting. I mean, not like an alternative to Flickr, but just like a place focused in geolocated photos with Google Maps.
In Panoramio you can locate your photos via drag and drop interface using Google Maps. You can also watch the photos in Google Earth through KML feed.
Hope you like it, we have been working very hard on it
