Google Maps for Europe & the Rise of GeoTagging

[Natural Search Optimization SEO Blog] We’re already seeing all sorts of interesting mashups of things which have been produced with the Google Maps API, so you can look forward to seeing even more interesting applications occur when people begin exploiting the data tie-ins that are going to be possible through the use of GeoTagging data. As Google expands their Maps to Europe and other countries, the incentive to usse their Map API only increases, too.

Planet Switzerland goes local

[ Bitflux Blog] This means, that only blogs show up on "location-search", who have those meta-tags on their homepage, even if you search for "country:Switzerland". And all blogs located in foreign countries do not show up either, since we don't have data for those (except Germany, but there's no blog up north with geodata), not even for Peru :).

Find Your Internet Access “Plazes”

[Driving In Traffic] Many that do are not to generous and will charge you an arm and a leg for it’s use. I found this really cool site, Plazes, that is sort of an underground attempt to log all the places, you can access the internet from your laptop (wireless and lan based).

Just Like The Future. Or, Clicker + Plazer.

[ruk.ca | peter rukavina's weblog] The end result: when I enter my office with my mobile phone in my pocket, Plazer marks me “Connected” and when I leave the office, I’m automagically marked “Not Connected.”

How many Starbucks until we get there?

[Multi-Media Me] In fact I sat in a meeting not 3 months ago and spoke of this exact eventuality. We are in the process of geo-coding the planet and we are just starting to see what all can be done with all this information based upon geographical proximity so it would make absolute sense or Adsense if you will for Google who brought us all this shinny new ajaxian mapping solution to cover every grid square with ads based upon

Yahoo! Releases Hi-Resolution Imagery for Entire Continental US

[Google Earth Blog] Maps beta released 1-meter/pixel resolution color satellite photos for the entire continental US. This is significant because it is more consistent data instead of the patchwork of varying color, black and white, varying resolution imagery we are used to in other mapping applications like Google Maps/Earth, and Windows Live Local.

Google Earth Illustrates the Flight 800 Disaster

In my Plaze

[The lost outpost] As an example, a new version of the Plazes launcher came out late last week (for Windows - it's called Plazer, and it is better than the .NET launcher I was using before), but I only found out about it by accident (NB the Linux launcher has been moved out of the limelight on the Plazes site, but it is still available - they are promising a new version later in the year)
