twitter announces Location API

twitter has just announced to add Location to their API. That’s big news as you can add your location to any tweet e.g. when you’re visiting a concert or from an interesting place you’re visiting on vacation. Sure, using twibble you can do all this already. Check out this geocoded picture or this geocoded video. In both cases twibble added the GPS coordinates to the tweet (watch the map on the right). In twibble mobile you can open a map to watch the location of your followers (below the Location submenu).

We are very excited on this since the location features already available in twibble will be even more useful in the future!
