geotagging the real world with your cell phone?

Help me find that awesome cellphone/real world data overlay project that I saw!

At some point in the last 6 months, I saw a website talking about this amazing project that took a cellphone, connected it to a database of photos with metadata about the contents, and then allowed you to take a picture and have the service label the buildings or mountains or whatever was in the shot. A form of geotagging, but for the contents of the photo and not the photo itself.

It may have even done live overlay of video, where you film and the program ID's the objects based on a database of other photos.

It may have been for Android/the google phone...wasn't for iPhone, I don't think. My Google-fu is completely failing me, and I need the project for an article I'm in the middle of.

Help me, mefi!
