• You can’t change your location for an uploaded photo (it’s based on your current location only)

Five Bonus Tips• Click on a user’s profile
photo to see other profile photos they’ve used.
• Posts can be formatted in the following ways: *bold*, _italicize_ and -strikethrough-
• You can edit your photo uploads with a cool photo editor
• Create a “Home” circle that you fill with people you want to constantly check in on
• When editing your profile, you can click on each tab (Photos, Videos, +1, etc) - each one has a checkbox to show or hide it on your profile

Ford was first - but it’s not clear if they just used a personal profile
to create it.
