Map your photos

Way Cool!
So you've got photos on flickr, and that's pretty cool. Wanna know what would make them cooler? Being able to show them on a map.
(Kinda hard to miss this one. When they launched it a few minutes ago, the whole flickr team was cheering.)
Mapping your photos is fairly easy, go to the Organizr, click on the "Map" tab, zoom to where you want to map the photo and then drag said photo into the location. You can also use the address bar at the top right to narrow in the location you want.
For all the details, including a screen cast of how it works, go check out the Flickr Blog, and a big Congrats! to the Flickr crew.
Well, that's what I get for not cutting back on the morning sugar rush. I forgot to point out that not only is Upcoming.org and Flickr now playing together even more, (seriously, there are times you can't get the two apart), they're also displaying events from Y!Local.
Andy has the details, but seriously, today is turning out to be the best day ever!
