Location-registered MT and a PDF citation database

Two cool things from Yuri... Adding geourls to Movable Type (duly noted by zeph a/k/a danah) and a slick CDDB-like PDF citation database.

The Geourl ability in Movable Type allows you to let people know from what latitude and longitude you're posting. The PDF database, "pdfdb", aims to be a CDDB for PDF files... that is, all you have to do is query the pdfdb and it will return the citation information for that file (in BIBTEX or XML [If you don't know what either of these are, feel free to continue to enter citations manually in your papers!])... this is very handy if you have trouble organizing your citations and use PDF files a lot.
