Although it might be nice and easy to go for just L:NAME  what happens when 
there are more than 1 café with the same name?

How do I tell what country you are in?

How do I tell the date/relevance to me etc.



It's not location specific but we've been using the term CHurl - to indicate a 
live Chat URL. Basically we setup the following for our baseball fan site 
(which is connected to twitter via API)

http://www.livebaseballchat.com/CHurl/06-21-2009/1019/479


Made up of the following constitute parts

URL/ LiveBaseballChat.com     (we are going to launch 7 more so needed the name 
included)

CHurl/ Word 

06/ Month

21/ Date 

09/ Year

1019/ Room number

479/ Message number

Subject: [twitter-dev] Tags for places?


What's a good tag-type to use for when a user refers to places? I've been using 
$dollartags and then indexing them - eg "off to $mojocoffee for MORE BEANS". 
Are there any standards for these already? I've seen people using L: style tags.

Any other recommendations for tag semantics for places?
