GPS Taggers iPhone

From creativepro.com

GPS Taggers and NotebooksMany photographers keep notebooks to record important information about photos they're taking. In analog days, for instance, we'd record exposure information, although embedded EXIF data makes that a non-issue for digital shooters. But it can still be hard to remember the name of that medieval town in the south of France where you shot an amazing photo series. Or what if you find the perfect location for an upcoming shoot and, certain that you'll remember where it is, don't write down how you got there?

With the iPhone and one of the apps in this category, you no longer need a paper notebook. My favorite, EveryTrail (free), records your movements and adds geotags to reference shots you take with the iPhone. You can caption the reference shots, but even better is that EveryTrail uploads your path to http://www.everytrail.com/ which then overlays the path on a Google map. You can even export the trip to Google Earth and fly directly to the geotagged locations.
