You use firefox, get the Greasemonky plugin, then get the script from http://www.geobloggers.com Then all you do is upload a photo to flickr, click "add geotags", and use the resulting google maps page (with plugins now) to find the coordinates on the map. No GPS needed. You can do this with old images if you are sure of where they were taken. It's VERY quick and easy to do it this way.
  • laserone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Oh, I LOVE geotagging! I've geotagged a few pix already:
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/laserone/
    I used the plugin for Firefox: greasemonky plus a script I got off of http://www.geobloggers.com

    BTW, Geocaching is also great fun! I'm totally addicted. :)
