Besides a tab or something on the site, where you can pinpoint your location, it would be great, if i could use the location-syntax that twittermap uses: see http://twittervision.com/maps/faq.html and http://twittervision.com/maps/location_examples.html This way i could just post my location through a simple dent like "i'm at L:home=Würzburg, Germany: and struggling with ms word again" and later use the saved "home" value, like: "at l:home:, back to using ubuntu" :-) It also would be great to differentiate between a "permanent location" like it's used in the profile now, and a dynamic one.
