Geoblogging

Excio is doing a geoblogging service. You can look up a zip code, see who's blogging in the same place, and contribute posts.

The catch is that it's a standalone blogging tool. "Excio offers all great features of other blogging tools, plus the ability to Geo-Code individual posts."

Maybe this is a demo to show makers of other blogging tools how it works? But if they wanted to get integrated into TypePad and Blogger and WordPress -- and logal blog portals like Austin Bloggers they ought to have a public api. As it is, they're starting from zero users instead of millions.

Hey, glad you stopped by. I'm currently working on a metablog api, should be done by Jan 10th. I have the module done to blog with the built in gps in my phone, I just need to flesh out the api a bit. Check back soon.
