Part of what I'm working on with Freemap (www.free-map.org.uk) is
developing mobile software (Freemap Mobile, see post a few days
ago) to
allow people to take photos of countryside locations. These could
be just
for interest, but also for direction finding, e.g. if you're out in
the
country and get lost, you can fire up the app on your phone and
look at a
(possibly annotated) photo of where you're supposed to be.

My 'mom' mobile app allows places and waypoints to have photos (and
audio recordings) linked to them. This was intended to aid data
collection but if someone implemented photos (and audio notes?) in
OSM it shouldn't be difficult to adapt mom to it.

A service like flickr can do a lot of this. It parses the GPS
details in files. It only costs about US$20 for 1 year and you get
infinite uploads of photos. You can't really beat that.

locr is another existing service, but it's the idea if integrating
photos into OSM which appeals.
