Geo-enabling a moblogging tour.
Wednesday, January 14th, 2009On my new project over at MIDMoves.com, i’m talking about how i’m going to Geo-enable my part of the tour. Obviously it’s something i’m very interested in but there’s a long long way to go before this stuff becomes easy enough for the the mainstream customers.
Here’s the list of what i’m trying to achieve.
- Location. Where am I now? Exactly?
- Turn-by-turn, step by step. Where do I need to go. How long will it take?
- Public transport. Where is it? When does it depart and arrive?
- Phototagging. Ensuring that my images are tagged with their location
- Live location tracking and networking. Allowing other people to view my location and to enable notifications when friends are near.
- What’s near me? How do I find the nearest hotel? Wifi? etc.
- Location tracking. How to I archive my locations and route?
- Map mashup. How do I create a map that shows my tracks along with all the ‘e-things’ I did along it. Photos, blogs, podcasts, twitter updates etc.
