This is a demonstration of Geotagthings, a new web service designed to quickly and easily assign any web resource — anything with a URL — a location in the normal, human physical world. Using Yahoo! Maps' interface and API, Geotagthings makes short work out of a previously complicated process, while providing an open feed-based mechanic for retrieving geotagged resources and displaying them in your favorite news aggregator.
