GeoURL

The blogosphere is abuzz with the opening of this new Web site that lets you associate your physical coordinates with just about anything online. GeoURL is a location-to-URL reverse directory. It allows you to find URLs by physical proximity to a given location. Bloggers have taken to GeoURL in a big way during the few weeks that it's been active, advertising their physical locations with wild abandon. The idea is that you can find other bloggers - or any other resource with a URL for that matter - in your physical vicinity. The benefits of GeoURL are obvious but few if any people are writing about potential privacy issues.
