SemanticTweet now supports geonames

SemanticTweet is a service constructing a RDF FOAF profile out of your 
Twitter account information.
http://semantictweet.com/

The new release supports geonames. Which means if you put your geonames 
id in the "Location" field of your profile, such as at 
http://twitter.com/hubject 
"Location geonames:6446645" it produces automagically at 
http://semantictweet.com/hubject the following RDF ...

  <foaf:Person rdf:about="http://semantictweet.com/hubject#me">
    <foaf:name>Bernard Vatant</foaf:name>
    ...
    <foaf:based_near>
      <wgs84_pos:Point>
        <foaf:name>Guillestre</foaf:name>
        <wgs84_pos:lat>44.6594959346223</wgs84_pos:lat>
        <wgs84_pos:long>6.64947509765625</wgs84_pos:long>
      </wgs84_pos:Point>
    </foaf:based_near>
    <foaf:based_near rdf:resource="http://sws.geonames.org/6446645/"/>
    ...
  </foaf:Person>

Nice and neat.
