A small seismic measure of transformation to come in citizen journalism by biverson

Robert Hardie, Northcliffe Media content strategy director, said that geo-tagging is intended to make accessing editorial and classified content more user-friendly.

I can't say this particular company or publisher is announcing a
revolution, however, this geo-tagging has been on my mind lately.From
the beta-testing I'm doing with Seero
(live broadcasting that "pushes" geo-tagged sites to viewers during
broadcasts) to yahoo and google maps, geo-tagging is the new black. Geo-tagging and mobiles and hand-helds go together, as we've seen in movies if not in taxi-cabs. Have you ridden in a cab lately that *didn't* have GPS and the friendly voice of "Miss Direction" to guide the way?

We are getting ready to upgrade our back-end on Creatingcommunityconnections and geo-tags are in the plans. I'll be writing more on this, and see it as a persistent thread for the year at least.
