Do something interesting with the GPS in your phone

GPSed LogoGPSed is a great new GPS tool for tracking your location via your GPS enabled BlackBerry. More importantly, it scratches an itch I’ve had lately of helping me to geo-tag my photos. Flickr and Picassa are supported so that covers the majority of photo sharing apps. A little freaky perhaps is the ability to track exactly where the phone was when it last checked in. I’ll be using this when snapping photos on assorted walks around Rochester, MN providing better information for everyone to use.

I read about it first at Berry Review. This is MUCH better than the FindMe application for Facebook which uses cell towers (as best as I was able to tell) instead of the built in GPS unit to triangulate location. I could see this having huge utility for tracking down friends when your at a large venue (like a sports arena) and trying to locate your friends – although the mobile site has varied degrees of detail from the very slick Google maps interface on the full blown website.
