Well, I almost always do the spot where the photo is taken from, but I think the other option is better for some types of photos (I try to maintain consistency).

Obviously this doesn't matter when your subject is close, but sometimes the subject and place where the photo is taken is far away (I have a photo of a building taken from 3+ kilometers away in my Flickr photostream, tagged in the place where I took it).

Go ahead and share how you do it and why.

You're making a record of the viewpoint, not the subject.

Plus, if you REALLY wanted to get back to that exact same spot, say, for example, if you got a new camera and wanted to try your hand at getting a better picture, you know exactly where to go :)

I only geotag photos on my flickr site. I always put them at the place the photo was taken, since 99% of my photos are within a ~75 meter or less range.
