Hey wow, LiveJournal‘s still around. Whodathunkit? Not only that, but they’ve announced that anyone blogging on their service through a Google Gears-enabled Windows Mobile device can now geotag their posts. All you have to do is hit the Detect button in the Location field, and it’ll figure out where you are. Even without Google Gears, the detect button will work on desktop using your IP address, which can drill down to the city without any problems. Cool stuff overall – now to go over my old LJ blog, where the magic started.

About The Author
Simon Sage
Simon Sage’s education largely surrounded writing, technology and online community, leading him to begin his blogging career at www.BlackBerryCool.com and to quickly discover a vibrant and active community surrounding BlackBerry and mobile technology. In exploring RIM’s platform, he has learned what enterprises are looking for in mobility as well as what makes the innocuous BlackBerry so appealing to them. Recently Simon’s been covering RIM’s gradual move into an already-crowded consumer market, and the impact of burgeoning challengers, such as the iPhone, as well as long-time leaders, like Nokia, on BlackBerry’s advancement.
With plenty of content under his belt, Simon will be branching off a bit to see what other smartphone manufacturers are working on while still using BlackBerry as a barometer. At IntoMobile, you can count on his posts being even-handed, well-informed and thought-out.
