Geo Mail

Our mashup Geo Mail has been updated. It is a mobile web application (HTML5) that lets you add a digital signature (link) with your location info to email messages on your mobile platform. It works on any mobile platform with HTML5 support: iPhone, Android, Samsung etc.


You can load and bookmark mobile URL with the following short link: http://bit.ly/a52Ta1 or with the QR-code below:

You can use this mashup in your web applications via adding links for Geo Mail to your web pages too. The basic URL accepts the following optional parameters:

to - email (list of emails) for sending
сс - СС header
bcc - BCC header
subject - subject for your letter. By default it is: I am here
body - an initial text for sending
lat - a latitude for sharing
lng - a longitude for sharing

For example: Mail to developers

P.S. btw, there is a useful trick with mobile email. You can send email message not only to some person, but to service too. For example, Facebook lets you update status info by email (see https://m.facebook.com/upload.php regarding service email for your account). The same is true for Blogger, etc. If you send status mail via Geo Mail mashup than you can share your location info with your Facebook social graph. It is yet another implementation for Places.
