The geotag feature of Photo Gallery is a great opportunity that seems to fail to be useful in several ways:
1) The ability to find landmarks is far from ideal. See this repeatedly - currently trying to associate a group of photos with the The Acropolis, Athens (Akropolis, Athens) and geotag search fails. Bing Maps can find these places with no trouble at all. Why the disparity?
2) Alternatively, the user has added pins to a collection in Bing Maps with all the tags they'd like to use. Photo Gallery does not appear to leverage the Microsoft account to check Bing Maps for geotag locations.
3) There doesn't seem to be a format of GPS co-ordinate that the geotag box in Photo Gallery will accept.
Thanks
