Just a little note to say I've taken off the HTTP auth password from 
SnapMap.org. In other words, anyone is welcome to sign up without checking with 
me first.

Adding photos, location & pose tags, and other arbitrary key-value tags is 
supported. There are several scrapers too, so importing photos from Flickr, 
Wiki[p|m]edia, Picasa - about 10 sites in all - is extremely easy.

Notes:

* SnapMap is not a photo hosting service, but points to resources online 
(Flickr, Wikipedia, and arbitrary websites) or in books.

* There's an API so you can display correctly posed photos in your (mobile) 
app. Just send a latlong bbox to the REST-based API and process the XML 
returned in your application.

I'll post more details shortly. In the meantime there's a wiki linked from:

http://www.snapmap.org/

It's on Dreamhost shared hosting so please don't hammer it! It's in a SVN 
repository; contact me if having a SVN account interests you.
