User Jesse P. Luna demonstrates the Geotagging feature of WordPress.com, including how to activate the feature, configure it for your location, and work with it when creating a blog post.
This is a WordPress.com feature, however there are various plugins you can install for similar functionality on a self-hosted WordPress blog. Run a search for “geotag” or “geotagging” from the Plugins> Add New menu and you should turn up some options.

Hi Jesse, I am really interested about geotagging my posts but I dont have that option on my Users Your Profile SubPanel. My subpanel is like this one http://codex.wordpress.org/Users_Your_Profile_SubPanel.
Could you explain me, how could I get this new option?
Eternal gratefulness from spain,
