    [...] We had a large agenda, though the day ended up looking a bit different. Our main activity of the day was production of a geotagged photo map. In three shifts, groups went out with the GPS and digital camera, checked that the clocks were in sync, and took a stroll. Back in the meeting room, I demonstrated how to use GPSBabel to pull out GPX (and KML), and used WWMX LocationStamper to geotag. Then upload to flickr, and display on a little custom mapping flickr hack (using flickr in preperation for their native stuff). We then distributed the GPX track and photos to each person’s computer, and they went through the process of stamping, uploading, and mapping themselves. [...]

    Great job, Dan! I’m glad to see geotagging truly integrated with Flickr. Now, if only I could get my camera to automatically geotag for me.

    Are you doing any work with your Yahoo! colleagues at del.icio.us?

    I’ve been geotagging my bookmarks there since you implemented the mapping of del.icio.us on geobloggers.com.

    No one seems to have taken up the idea since you closed down the geobloggers.com map :-(
