Finer grained geotagging
"I would like to argue now that RSS, ATOM, and even web pages SHOULD NOT encode location information at all - the possible exception being the encoding of observations. Otherwise the locations should be done ONLY by reference. Such a mechanism is simple, respects the notions of modularity and orthogonality in design and allows web feeds to "stick to their knitting"." -- geo-web.blog.com
Geo-Web makes an interesting point that I haven't yet though about, but have had trouble with while geoblogging.
When geotagging trips using one coordinate for the entry makes only summarized sense. With that I mean that one chooses a location representing where the content is about. It does not allow for geotagging parts of the content itself.
I would not go as far as to say that the entry itself should not be GeoRSS geotagged, because a summarized location can be useful metadata to the entry.
What steps are needed to implement his approach?
