  1. Re:Nice, but limited on Flickr Launches Drag and Drop Geotagging · · Score: 1

    Hmm, that might be so, but it looks sync'd quite well. Examine the following:

    Tokyo Int'l Airport: http://beta.zooomr.com/tagmap?ll=35.55275019750131 ,139.7843098640442&z=17

    Not only is that Sat. imagery breathtaking, even Tokyo Tower is correctly lined-up between the map and the satellite images:

    Tokyo Tower: http://beta.zooomr.com/tagmap?ll=35.65859512638627 4,139.74545001983643&z=17

    That might have been a problem some time ago, but it doesn't seem to be a problem any longer.

    In that case, you might want to check out our geotagged photos (using Google Maps) for Japan:

    http://beta.zooomr.com/tagmap?ll=35.79999392988527 ,139.06494140625&z=6

    We're also localized in over 15 languages, so most of those photos have been actually taken by fellow Japanese people. One of Zooomr's main goals is to represent photos universally, so when confronted with the choice to use Google Maps v. Yahoo! Maps, Google Maps was quite clearly the winner hands down.

    I started BlueBridge Technologies Group close to 5 years ago. The name comes from the blue underbelly of the Coronado Bridge in San Diego, California.

    I'm working at Meetro right now so that I have a chance at living in the Bay Area. That aside, Zooomr is a solution of BlueBridge Technologies Group and is in the midst of becoming incorporated.

    Just so I can get this in without having to post multiple times, I am in-fact 17 years old.
