Great ideas - it would be worth checking out existing services to tie into, such as Plazes (http://plazes.com), which has blog widgets (see my blog sidebar http://highearthorbit.com)
There are also Geo-plugins for blogging engines, such as GeoPress for WordPress (http://georss.org/geopress), that the Neo could publish location, history, photos to. Or just geotag photos and upload to Flickr/SmugMug/Panoramio/Zooomr/et al. GeoTracing (http://www.geotracing.com/) is a very cool project that spawned GeoSkating & GeoSailing, much like what you're suggesting. And Bliin (http://www.bliin.com/) is an upcoming project to do very advanced tracking/friend finding, etc. See the OpenMoKo wiki for some of these links and to add your own ideas! http://www.linuxtogo.org/gowiki/OpenMoko/ideas/GPSFriends http://www.linuxtogo.org/gowiki/OpenMoko/Software But as Richard Bennet pointed out - a lot of the actual 'ability' will depend on the accuracy of the GPS that the phone & apps sees.
