Dear lazyweb, how hard is it to make Adam Curry who ponders Nokia N800, GPS and some clever code to find out about Geoclue? (hi! good show!)

Happy Hackers brainstorming GeoClue
One of our projects is to have our hacker community more location […]

Does anyone know if there is a way to add geotags into blog posts via any of the weblog API’s?
