Would you like me to make a reservation for you at the hotels I stayed in?
Actually I've addressed the situation you mentioned for my own purposes.
Starting this year, I've geo-tagged every photo I've taken. That means
that encoded in the EXIF data is the precise lat/lon coordinates I was
standing in when I took the shot. The software I use to do this will
export the geo-tag data as waypoints that can be used in Garmin's
MapSource software. This way, when I look at a photo 10 years from now,
when I'm even more old and feeble than I am now, I won't have to remember
where I took the shot. All I have to do is look at the EXIF data and it's
permanently written right there. Cool stuff.


Mrs.E. asked me what camera(s) you used to make the ebook. I told her I was
fairly certain it was a Nikon, but I didn't know what model. Also, did you
use the same camera for all the photographs?

I wish you hadn't asked. He'll probably come back and tell us it's an $85
Canon point and shoot he picked up at Best Buy two years ago.
