looking for an app....

Hi all,
I'm in need of an app that will allow me to take a photo of something (like a local landmark, for example), and tell me what it is....it would also be beneficial if I could see WHERE it is, and any other pertinent information.  Have scoured the app store and can't find what I'm looking for.  I only find apps that will tell me what movie poster, album cover or wine label that I'm looking at.  -Thank for your help.

iThoughts

Check out iThoughtsHD for the iPad....cool app similar to Inspiration. Great reviews.  It's 10$, but looks excellent for mindmapping, planning, organizing.
