    Now, i've run a quick search and this topic didn't show, so unless i've been asleep for the past few months, apologies if it has. Seeing as it's got to do with photography, here seemed the most appropriate place to post.

    I was uploading some new pics to flickr, and went to try and do the whole geotagging thing, when i noticed that yahoo have updated their Irish maps with the 2006 Navteq maps used by Ask.com! So now we can all show off our photos where they were meant to be! lovely!

    Basically, you can tag your photos, to show where you took them. And it just got more accurate.
