Blogs

Still no PushButton publishing for the new Blogger. Some things that I write on my web pages should actually go to the blog. The historical notes and links are related to some sites and issues that might never be relevant again so those are just littering the web site.
So the bad thing is that I have to write down the text and links manually as opposed to BlogThis, which used to summarize the main points itself.
Example of these notes are the ones on my Images page.

Domain - Maps

Domain, a very good Australian property-related web site, has integrated Google APIs so that the results of a search can be seen on Google Maps as small houses. Clicking each of these will show it's details. Neat.

I should add a story of a friend's wife's grandfather (over 70) who rides a bicycle every day.
It's all up to you.

Flickr Geotagging with Google Earth

Flickr photos geotagging with Google Earth!
After you add geotags with Google Earth and upload a photo to Flickr, or upload a photo and then set the geotag with Flickr Map, use MetaToad's plugin for Google Earth to view Flickr photos at a certain location. Cool.

Post by Email

It seems that this should work but only if I'm posting from my gmail
account.
That's fine, too. Thunderbird templates and storing sent email can be
configured, if needed. Posting through web mail account is great, too,
when on the road.
