geotagging sites and services
I received an invite to bright kite (I have a couple of invites now - leave a comment and I’ll send you one) yesterday so I signed up and straight of the bat I was wondering what this was for and how I could use it - or how my clients could use it.

After a short search I found this presentation by Tom Coates (video by Premasagar Rose) The video was recorded at a developer evening in London and focuses on Fire Eagle, Fire Eagle is a new service from yahoo for geoscrobbling
Tom Coates on Fire Eagle from Premasagar Rose on Vimeo.
The video is well worth the watch, Tom’s a great presenter and shoots through his slides perhaps too quickly. The bonus is that I now know a bit more about geoscrobbling (a word I think Premagascar has created as there’s no wikipedia entry yet) and about 30 websites to look into
On Bright Kite, well I’m still not too sure how I can use it effectively as I don’t really want to go to another site and post notes and images as I have all that pretty much covered, Fire Eagle however looks fantastic acting as a conduit between services nicely in the background.
Some sites working with Fire Eagle
And many many more - check out the video for all the sites.
Oh if you want a bright kite invite leave a comment - anything will do - and your email
