Re: [-empyre-] locative GPS driven blogs

[Jason Nelson <heliopod@yahoo.com>]

Yeah...I am thinking of attaching lat and long
coordinates to blogs, so that they can be fetched for
a place, while standing in that place, and only while
within those lat long coordinates. So it would be as
if that blog was truly in that place. Sort of blog
hotspots. But then with that same software, others
could load their blogs attached to that lat long
reading as well.  

So any thoughts? Anyone know of other groups
practicing this/ I am currently attempting to develop
a basic small software (java) package that
automatically attaches lat long readings to blogs and
then pulls them up for those places.

cheers, Jason
