We wrote recently about reading locations data in web applications. It was just a technique. And here is a bit more interesting example. Mobile mashup Geo Mail lets you share coordinates via email. It is a wrapper for the native email client lets you add a signature with your location info. For example this web application is the simplest way to tell your friend where you are right from your iPhone. You do not need even to type anything. Just hit Send button and send data via email.
Depends on your settings application can send a link to the Google map, a link to the static map (just a picture) or just a plain text with latitude / longitude info.
Technically it is W3C based geo locations plus a public API from bit.ly
You can copy a link to http://servletsuite.com/geomail/ right to the phone with the QR code above.
