I'm with you on this one. Fortunately, the of those that do list their locations near me, I've met and we've become friends. In some cases, it's nice to know where a lot of photos were taken. I realize we're mobile, but a lot of the photographs are from locales close to home. So, like yourself, I wish more people would list their locations.
I was recently contacted by another photographer and we met for dinner the other evening. What a treat. If I had not listed my location, that meeting might never have occurred.

I used to question that as well, but it can add to info in Exiff data, etc, and contribute to easily pinpointing the exact location of a person. It's just another facet in identity protection that some choose.
How does adding where you are located in your UHH profile add that info to the EXIF data in your photo files??? Someone want to answer that?

I think it was the mention of "Washington, D.C".
I'd be happy to try to answer that. I'm having trouble figuring out the question.

It does not add to the EXIF data, perhaps I should have stated in addition to the EXIF data information available.
well it looks like were split down the middle. Even though I am far from a computer expert - I believe that all the members that have some concern about there location should leave all internet sites cause if I am correct anyone with some computer knowledge can get - see get your IP address, "ping" it and know somewhat where you are. Nice to know that the photos were taken near "Two Dot" Montana or "Beaver Falls" Arizona or where ever.

It's nice to know where your cameras come from.
You'll find that split somewhat across the board. I posted a thread regarding the value of knowing EXIF data, as I've recently been removing that from my images. The answers were rather split.
