File Your Digital Pics by GPS

Photography — 17 October 2006

One of the biggest challenges I face when it comes to snapping pics is organizing them on my computer. Too often they get buried in the shuffle off 1000s of other photos, and with Hard Drive space increasing by folds every month, we’ll all soon be neck deep in content. Enter the GPS digital camera…well not quite, but almost. The GPS-CS1 syncs up with your compatible Sony Digital Camera, and records the coordinates. If you use Sony’s proprietary software your photos will be shown on a map. We just can’t wait for this technology to show up in every device that captures information. Brings a whole new meaning to ‘tagging’.

i think its kinda a good idea. like being on vacation and you took three pics of very high bridges you were driving over,,, well.. where the hell were they? or a few cool looking rapids or trees or whatever..,, well now youll know just where the things youv seen are again, (except if using telephoto) and where to tell friends to go on their vaca.

ummm, i made all this up.
