In a few years time, every photo you take with any camera will be geotagged. What does that mean? The location of where you took the photo is embedded in the photo file. Now you can organise your pictures not just by time but also by place.

Nokia just released an update to their GPS-enabled Symbian phone N82 that enables geotagging in the photos taken with the camera. Expect the same from other manufacturers soon and I hope the old camera companies follow the competition from the mobile phone companies, otherwise there’s two reasons instead of one to choose a mobile phone camera over a “real” camera: connectivity and geotagging.
