Flickr just added the ability to geocode your photos. I’m sure I will be wasting a lot of time playing with this. I already stayed up late last night mapping my photos with the nifty Flickr photo organizer. The Flickr API has been updated so that now you can access the geocoding data. I can already think of some cool ways to use this. For example, it would be cool to show photos tagged with cycling near the loctaion of the events listed in bikeride.com. To learn more how to geocode your photos, go to the Flickr blog post.
