I sort of stumbled across the Degree Confluence Project. "The goal of the project is to visit each of the latitude and longitude integer degree intersections in the world, and to take pictures at each location. " So there are photos from around the world (places beautiful, places mundane) of these points of confluence. The point nearest to me (nearest to 40:07:38N, 82:54:00W) is 40N 83W which is in in the kitchen of an OSU off campus house. . If I had a GPS this would be a great way to waste a weekend.
I found my longitude and latitude by using Multi Map , which gave me my exact (to within 100 meters) location. It's a pretty great tool as well.
