Download Squad posts about Maptales.com, a site that lets you upload geocoded photos with text (from a blog, mobile phone or Flickr) from a journey’s route to tell a story, and plots links to the journey photos in a Google Maps interface. The standard Google Maps navigation has been replaced by icons at the top (to the right of the search box), which take some getting used to. Not a lot of content right now, and you have to apply for an invitation key by email to use the site.
