Flickr just added a geotag feature to their organizer

Flickr just added a map and geotag feature to their organizer. Yes! Great shot - where’d you take that?
You can now drag your photos to the places where you took them on a map of the world. This is version 1 of this feature so it’s a bit crude in terms of integration into the flickr UI but I’m sure it will lead to wonderful things in the future. I just tagged twenty of my latest images in a matter of minutes. Fun.
Thanks for the tip-off! It’s proving useful for my Galapagos photos and I love that you can change the privacy when you want.
Sarah: my only wish is that the map was a google map (hey, flickr is owned by yahoo, I know) and that it came up bigger. But, it’s a nice feature for sure and I’ll bet it will evolve into something great.
