iPhoto ups its appeal... maybe
Clearing the brush in my "land of half-finished thoughts", (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/2006/10/land-of-half-finished-thoughts.html)I ran across another tidbit about the new version of iPhoto (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhoto). In addition to feline facial recognition (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/2009/01/iphoto-gives-me-reason-to-get-mac.html), it may offer geotagging for photos taken from any digital camera (http://i.gizmodo.com/5159087/iphoto-may-use-future-iphone-gps-functionality-to-geotag-with-any-camera) using an iPhone or iPod touch as a geocache.
Geocache, in this case, does not refer to a treasure hunt using GPS data (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geocaching). Instead, I mean a device to capture GPS data. I was pointed to the idea by Fred Biederbeck (who needs a blog or something) in response to my entry about wanting GPS in my next camera (http://sumocat.blogspot.com/2009/01/my-next-camera-will-have-gps.html). If this story about iPhoto pans out, I could use my iPhone for that purpose. Of course, then I'd need to get a Mac, but maybe someone can get this working for other apps too.
