Aaron and I were asked to chat about stuff at Where2.0 a while ago, here are the slides to I can link a Flickr Dev Blog post about it.

1. Going Places on Flickr:
The Significance of
Geographical Information
in Photos
Catt (with Cope)
Where 2.0 2008

2. State the problem:

3. Garbage in, Garbage out.

4. How does that happen?

5. 99.9999999% of the time, that’s just fine

6. Why is it so hard the other way round?

7. Le Corbusier
“Until then men had been aware of one
voice only from above — bellowing or
thundering — the voice of the storm.”

8. “[W]e can lay a persistently retrievable
history of the things that are done and
witnessed there over any place that can
specified with lat/long coordinates.”
