Maps and Geotagging

I love google earth. It is one of the most amazing applications on the web and I think has even more potential than I realize just yet. Google street view is pretty cool also.

I once saw a map where someone had geotagged all of the Sno-Isle Libraries. I can't find it any more, but it is a nice idea. One of the things I have noticed about Library Web sites is that it is not always clear where on earth they are. They give their name of course, but it is often a county or city and it is hard to tell what state they are in. I think it would be nice to have a geotagged google map on library pages.
