Interesting concept, and probably quite feasible, if unlikely to eventuate tomorrow:

Blog the Globe: Apple and Google to Blog the Globe?

Will there be a Apple phone with GPS capabilities that includes automatic georeferencing of photos, videos, audio, text messages and web pages presented at MacWorld on Tuesday?

And a clever way of browsing this info automatically using your location aware iPhone or MacBook?

Users would be able to post information at a location, hanging in the air, ready to be browsed by people passing by. Imagine getting highly relevant messages, without even pressing a button, simply because you are in the vicinity and your preferences match the content of the post.
If the iPhone were to be announced on tuesday with these capabilities, i would be first in line for one, especially if it was a PDA style phone with one of those snazzy slide out QWERTY keyboards and a mobile version of OSX , kinda like a bastard child of these two:
