GPS info in MobileMe Gallery pictures. Google Map?

Question

GPS info in MobileMe Gallery pictures. Google Map?

I took pictures on my iPhone, downloaded them into iPhoto, and made sure the GPS info was in the files. I created a MobileMe gallery, uploaded it, and checked to discover that when you click on the "i" icon in the MobileMe gallery from a web browser the GPS info doesn't show. I want to send my MobileMe Gallery link to somebody and have them see on something like a Google Map where they were taken. Is this not possible?

Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5, Mac OS X (10.5.7)

Thank you Larry. Do you know if MobileMe Gallery and the GPS info in the files, or if there is a way through Google Maps, to be able to see location on a map? This can be done in iPhoto, but don't see an option when image is in a MobileMe Gallery.

You can see the GPS data of the photo by clicking on the Info button when viewing the photo in the gallery. It will flip over and show you a bunch of metadata. Toward the bottom in the "Exposure" section I see GPS info for my photos. This only answers the first part of your question. I would love to see the second part implemented as well.

Thanks. Yes, I think it would be great to be able to set up a MobileMe gallery and have people see on a map where it was taken.

Same for me: iPhoto prefs are ok (prefs - web - include location info), but still no data in Mobileme Gallery. Is this a bug, will this be updated soon? Some people succeed to get some pictures done, I don't get any!! (http://gallery.me.com/altosaxo#100631)
