August 19, 2008 – 9:18 pm

Google Maps allows you to search by specifying co-ordinates in latitude and longitude, however I was unable to find details in their online help.

After some experimenting I’ve come up with the following formats which are accepted.

It’s getting a bit repetitive sending you all those links so I’ll leave ‘em here for you ;)

And most important of all, the one that caused us a few hours of stress today - download the

NORTON REMOVAL TOOL

If I find any more I’ll add them to the list. Enjoy :)

Nottingham Indymedia in morse code

I was fascinated to see the folks over at Notts Indymedia had used morse code in their logo.

Nice to know it ain’t dead yet. If you’d like it in MP3 or Ogg Vorbis at 20wpm I’d be happy to oblige :D

See you on the bands.

OK.

After yesterday’s installation and testing of the WordPress engine I can now start adding content to the site. I’ve chosen a suitable theme, Silverlight, however the sidebar doesn’t quite work as expected (I can figure that out as I go).

There is lots of clever Web2.0 stuff out there to filter in and out content from elsewhere. Mashup is the key word. Yahoo! Pipes is one such gadget that I have implemented to take RSS feeds from sites I post on such as Flickr, StumbleUpon and Del.icio.us.

Making sense yet? No? Go Google web2.0 then.

I’ll even add some original content when I’m feeling creative enough.

Makeover

After much time spent learning and fiddling with HTML, CSS, php, Perl and MySQL, We’ve decided to use a pre-packed solution for the site.

We’re now using WordPress.

Now we can spend more time tweaking the content instead of the presentation.

The old site stuff will remain (as always!) with some links in the sidebar to the more useful stuff.
