Anyone using geo-tagging?
Anyone using geo-tagging?: "Here are materials from a presentation that was given at an IBM conference in Israel this past February. The same presentation was given about a week ago at the SIGIR conference. Those slides are not yet available.It's right on topic.

Geo mapping
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I first heard of geo mapping from GeoUrl.org
when I first started blogging a year ago. People used it to find blogs close to them and some mapping systems used it to pin-point blogs. I used the following tags:
geo.accuracy: 1
geo.city: atlanta
geo.country: us
geo.datum: nad83
geo.latitude: 33.786027
geo.longitude: -84.351418
geo.postal: 30306
geo.state: us13
This is the first I've seen those tags. I often wondered if this would be a way to help local search engines find you as well. I look forward to additional information.
