Map your blog with GeoRSS & Google Maps
GeoRSS is a nice format for adding location to RSS feeds—and recently Google Maps was extended with GeoRSS capabilities.
This blog publishes a GeoRSS feed via the GeoPress plugin (see previous post GeoPress) and to illustrate the capabilites I will tag this post with the location coordinates (latitude,longitude) = 37.87,-122.3, which is where I am currently located (for those who wonders how those geographic coordinates translates to a geographic placename, I’m at UC Berkeley in San Francisco’s Bay Area).
Now, to view this blog’s GeoRSS feed in Google Maps , all we have to do is to go to http://maps.google.com/maps?q=http://blog.makemaps.net/rss2
