Google supports geo-tagging of YouTube's videos

Picture002

New feature from Google : When you upload a video to YouTube, you can now give coordinates for the associated video, in other words, you can give lat/long coordinates of the video to point its location on Google Maps.

There is no explanation on Youtube's blog for the moment but according to Gearthblog, the idea is to create KML files associated with the locations of the videos in order to be able to show videos tied to a search for a location.
