In a previous post I described the ability to upload photos to Flickr via email. You just enable the feature in your Flickr account to get the top secret email address. Then attach a photo, add a subject and brief description and send. This is definately a great advancement since it enables you to easily post from a mobile phone or BlackBerry with integrated camera.
Now one thing that I've been studying for some time now is the integration of GPS coordinates into the meta data of the JPG photo known as geotagging. I've learned through my sources that geotagging photos will be a native function available in BlackBerry handheld OS version 4.5. I can't wait for this OS to be released!
Today I stumbled across Flickr for BlackBerry on RIMarkable. Not only does it provide a slick mobile Flickr Uploadr, but you guessed it... It will geotag the photos using the integrated BlackBerry GPS prior to upload to Flickr.
