Check out Tim's GMapper. This guy has discovered a method to automatically geocode photos and display them on maps generated by Google Maps.

This could be a cool idea for traditional news media. Covering a local marathon? Show pictures along a map of the trail! Traveling? An amazing extra.

At least one system, Zonetag allows you to geocode cell phone photos and upload them to Flickr. However, the quality is much lower.

Anyhow, I hope to see geocoded photo maps on media sites soon. (Thanks to Poynter's Larry Larsen and Digg.com for the tip.)
