Yahoo just launched a new service that automatically provides images with a label, tag or caption that indicates exactly the place where the photo was taken. Yahoo's Zonetag is a geotagging service designed mainly for Nokia S60 cellular phones. It derives location data from the cellular sites of the place where the phone was connected at the time. If a person uses ZoneTag with a Bluetooth GPS unit, then the GPS coordinates of the image will be uploaded together with a cell ID. This cell ID corresponds with the city, state and zip code of those GPS coordinates so that Yahoo is able to determine the exact location.

After the caption has been provided, the images are then sent to Flickr, Yahoo’s image sharing Web page. Some users, however, have noted some flaws, claiming that Zonetag has sometimes failed to correctly identify the place where the photo was taken. Yahoo downplays the flaw, saying that the software’s accuracy will improve as more people start to use it. ZoneTag phone support is currently restricted to Nokia Series 60 mobile phones. It is also known to work with 6620, 6670, 6680, 6681, 6682, 7610, and 3230, 6630, 6260 models.
