The Ability to Edit or Insert Notes & Locations
I'd like the ability to edit our notes and locations, as well as maybe being able to insert location check-ins into the past. Here's why:
Sending a text with the '&' characters cuts off the rest of the message. Would be nice to sit down at a computer later on and edit that, keeping the time and location, and keeping things neat. Instead, I just had to make a note later explaining a previous note, and it's sloppy feeling and useless to the present.
While out traveling, I forgot to check-in to different locations, so I sent pictures and notes and they're all assigned to my home. No way I see to edit the location. That sucks because I didn't want to delete all those notes and pictures--and everything after--just to fake checking in, in the proper order, and remembering my later notes and possibly re-entering them again, too. Plus, it costs money to send pictures over mobile phone, so who wants to send it twice just to make up for not being able to edit.
I also forgot to check in at a lot of places I visited while traveling, even though I'd like them to show up on places I've been and have a sort of visual representation of my journeying. It'd be nice if I could just insert a check-in and enter the date and time. If people forget to check in, they can sit down when they remember and enter it in on their computer or whatever and fill things out. Maybe then also be able to append notes to check ins into the past, too.

Inappropriate?Ikissrabbits, I really want this feature as well. The ability to edit your notes and checkins is something that is coming soon. We are considering the ability to post-date your checkins and notes, but we are not 100% on this just yet.
One thing that you can do now is post notes/photos "about" locations. You can do this just by visiting your desired location's placestream and posting a note/photo to that location. These posts do not generate any notifications or post to Twitter since they are not coming from your current location. If we did implement post-dated checkins and notes, they would act just like "about" posts.
I hope that helps.
I’m excited about being able to edit

Inappropriate?I too often use services like ping.fm that push my status updates to Brightkite, and I forget to check in somewhere, and all of a sudden i have a bunch of Brightkite "notes" from the wrong placemark. I want to be able to go back and reassign any notes to the placemark of my choosing.
I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?I too would like this feature. When posting photos from cell phone, captions often get cut off leaving very cryptic posts. Editing location is also important when you think you are properly checked in someplace and you are not.

Inappropriate?I want this feature, too. Just today I slipped up and posted all my notes at the wrong place. Please implement this soon! It shouldn't be too hard, should it?
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?I am still surprised that this feature does not exist. Seems to be vital for us, especially editing notes. I don't know how many times I have hit post only to notice horrible spelling or grammatical errors. :)
I’m Hopeful
