gPress adds new geo-relevant layers to WordPress, allowing you to create your own location-based services or to keep track of your own personal geo-tagged journies. Even in its beta state, you can presently geo-tag posts using native WordPress Mobile Applications, or create new geo-located places using custom post types, featured images and descriptions, add geoRSS functionality and integrated with BuddyPress and Foursquare.
The future of gPress is one where you can develop your own completely customizable, fully-interactive and entirely immersible geo-relevant social-layers using combinations of movements, actions and consequences whilst geo-tagging, trailing and interacting with locations, people and objects. Create new geo-relevant states of social-roleplay by defining language and lingo, customizing context and integrating with other social-networks.

Thanks for the early shout-out – even in its 0.2+ state, we have had some excellent feedback, but must admit that we have a LOT we need to get done prior to Version 1, from where some truly exciting things will be possible…
In the meantime, for all those using in production environments, please bare with us as we work through the project’s infancy…
Our official support forums for the gPress project can be found within the BuddyPress community site at – http://buddypress.org/community/groups/gpress/forum/
Thanks again!
This plugin will totally bring a new experience to wordpress users. I just hope that there’s not a lot of bugs in it ’cause it’s still on beta.
I totally agree with Andrew, this is exciting especially for those who like to track or let’s say kinda keep a journal of their travels. Nice!
Absolutely a must-have plugin for those of us into geolocation, geotagging, and Wordpress/BuddyPress.
We use this plugin at http://FavTrip.com and it is invaluable. We’re getting ready to introduce some new and innovative features there as well that should really bring a lot of attention to these developers and this great plugin.
