It’s very easy to add geographical identification metadata (i.e. Geotagging) to your content. While creating or editing posts, just add the address to the ‘Geolocation’ field. Examples could be ‘Paris, France’, or more detailed, ‘Rue Duquesnoy 7 Brussels Belgium’. After saving, your post will automatically be geotagged. If you check the box below the ‘Geolocation’ field, the content becomes a ‘Geobject’ and will NOT be displayed on your blog as a post. It will only be viewable through the map interface.
Now how can you view your geotagged items on a map? Easy, there are two ways. First, check out our geo-layers section. There you can view the most recently created posts that are geotagged, but a lot more is possible. Try the example links you find at the bottom of each map and you see the flexibility of the system.

This is number 1, the first post on our brand new blog. We’re very happy to have reached this stage, albeit still a very early one: a lot of work is still ahead of us.
So what is Edosia? The application is primarily meant for artists, but since we believe that everybody is born an artist, the application will be open for all. What you’ll get at this early alpha stage is an easy-to-use publishing platform for your thoughts and work. Gradually we’ll add more tools that will allow you to reach out to the mashup world of social media, to the mobile sphere and to the internet of things. All without losing your integrity or dignity. Edosia has no branding, and you can use a custom domain name if you want to.
