Spatially Adjusted introduces loca.alize.us, another tool to map geocoded photos. The loc.alize.us website. From the blog: "On the heals of his Localize Bookmark for Flickr, Aemkei has released loc.alize.us using the Google Map and Flickr APIs. If you use his Localize Bookmark tool, your photos will appear almost instantly in the viewer. I think this is the best geotag browser so far."
