  <description>Fire Eagle is a new web service for 'geoscrobbling' your location: http://fireeagle.com

It lets you give permission for third party applications to either update your location, or to access your current location on the planet.

Here, Tom Coates ( http://www.plasticbag.org/about/ ) talks about Fire Eagle and the various applications currently using it. This was the Fire Eagle Developer Evening in London, on the 30th April 2008.

Afterwards, Seth Fitzsimmons ( http://mojodna.net ) and Steve Marshall ( http://nascentguruism.com/about/ ) talked about the architecture of Fire Eagle and how to authenticate applications, using Python and Ruby. And I ran out of memory (in a manner of speaking)...

If you have an interest in geo publishing and web services, you may want to check out my recent article on Dev.Opera. It gives an overview of the field, plus a few pithy code snippets: http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/location-based-publishing-and-services/
