loc.alize.us

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a post about Flickr integrating geotagging in their site.  This was awesome, but there is one “shortfall”.  Flickr uses Yahoo! Maps to place your photos, which is logical considering Yahoo bought Flickr last year.  The downside of this is that relative to Google Maps, Yahoo Maps kind of stink, especially outside the U.S.  Thankfully (and wisely), Flickr kept their geotagging API open so that other developers could use it.

Enter loc.alize.us.  It maps all geotagged photos in Flickr (both traditional tags and Flickr’s new super-friendly tagging scheme) on Google Maps.  Check it out!
