What do you think of when you see this icon?
Evidently, we’re SUPPOSED to think of a thumbtack marking a spot on a map.
I, on the other hand, think of someone on a drinking binge.
But that’s just me I guess. And for me, this specific someone has a different colored arm than their face, and is probably a distant relative of Pac-Man.
I think I “get” the geotagging concept - you write a blog post, take a picture, tweet or utterz something, and you tag your GPS coordinates to the entry itself so you can map it. Maybe the device you’re using (camera, phone, computer, AI) does it by itself or maybe you add the tag later.
I can see some uses for this - like Twittervision is kind of cool (especially the 3d view), but it’s not literally geotagging. It does get the idea across, however - you can see visually where things happen.
Do you use geotagging?
