1. A system for controlling metadata associated with content items as directed by a user of an electronic device, the system comprising: a user interface comprising interface screens displayed on a display of the electronic device; an input mechanism on the electronic device, the input mechanism receiving user instructions through the user interface; a plurality of content items accessible by the electronic device, one or more of the plurality of content items having metadata associated therewith, the plurality of content items comprising original content items and modified content items; an overlay component that places a geolocation overlay indicator on each of the plurality of content items having associated geolocation metadata; a content selection component that displays one or more of the plurality of content items on the display of the electronic device, and enables selection of one or more of the plurality of displayed content items; the content selection component displays the geolocation overlay indicator with each content items having associated geolocation metadata; a plurality of content sharing mechanisms on the electronic device, each of the plurality of content sharing mechanisms for at least one of receiving content items and sending content items over a network accessible by the electronic device; a geotag profile accessible by the electronic device, the geotag profile including profile instructions regarding geolocation metadata control and being directed to at least one of the plurality of content sharing mechanisms; a sharing selection component for selecting a selected content item of the plurality of content items, and for selecting a selected content sharing mechanism of the plurality of content sharing mechanisms, the selected content item having selected content metadata associated therewith; a metadata modification component for modifying metadata associated with the plurality of content items including modifying the selected content metadata before sharing the selected content items, the metadata modification component selecting the geotag profile based on the selected content item and the selected content sharing mechanism, and modifying geolocation metadata of the selected content metadata in accordance with the profile instructions of the geotag profile when the geotag profile is selected; a sharing component for sharing a sharing version of the selected content item with a sharing version of the selected content metadata over a network accessible by the electronic device through the selected content sharing mechanism; wherein metadata associated with the original content items has not been modified by the metadata modification component and metadata associated with the modified content items has been modified by the metadata modification component, and wherein when the metadata modification component modifies selected content metadata before sharing a selected content item and the geotag profile is selected, the metadata modification component modifies the selected content metadata associated with the selected content item in accordance with the profile instructions of the geotag profile to generate the sharing version of the selected content metadata, and the metadata modification component does not modify the selected content metadata associated with the selected content item.
1. A system for controlling metadata associated with content items as directed by a user of an electronic device, the system comprising: a user interface comprising interface screens displayed on a display of the electronic device; an input mechanism on the electronic device, the input mechanism receiving user instructions through the user interface; a plurality of content items accessible by the electronic device, one or more of the plurality of content items having metadata associated therewith, the plurality of content items comprising original content items and modified content items; an overlay component that places a geolocation overlay indicator on each of the plurality of content items having associated geolocation metadata; a content selection component that displays one or more of the plurality of content items on the display of the electronic device, and enables selection of one or more of the plurality of displayed content items; the content selection component displays the geolocation overlay indicator with each content items having associated geolocation metadata; a plurality of content sharing mechanisms on the electronic device, each of the plurality of content sharing mechanisms for at least one of receiving content items and sending content items over a network accessible by the electronic device; a geotag profile accessible by the electronic device, the geotag profile including profile instructions regarding geolocation metadata control and being directed to at least one of the plurality of content sharing mechanisms; a sharing selection component for selecting a selected content item of the plurality of content items, and for selecting a selected content sharing mechanism of the plurality of content sharing mechanisms, the selected content item having selected content metadata associated therewith; a metadata modification component for modifying metadata associated with the plurality of content items including modifying the selected content metadata before sharing the selected content items, the metadata modification component selecting the geotag profile based on the selected content item and the selected content sharing mechanism, and modifying geolocation metadata of the selected content metadata in accordance with the profile instructions of the geotag profile when the geotag profile is selected; a sharing component for sharing a sharing version of the selected content item with a sharing version of the selected content metadata over a network accessible by the electronic device through the selected content sharing mechanism; wherein metadata associated with the original content items has not been modified by the metadata modification component and metadata associated with the modified content items has been modified by the metadata modification component, and wherein when the metadata modification component modifies selected content metadata before sharing a selected content item and the geotag profile is selected, the metadata modification component modifies the selected content metadata associated with the selected content item in accordance with the profile instructions of the geotag profile to generate the sharing version of the selected content metadata, and the metadata modification component does not modify the selected content metadata associated with the selected content item. 5. The system of claim 1 , further comprising: a marking component for marking the modified content items with a watermark; and wherein the content selection component displays the watermark to identify the modified content items.
