Blogger Review

A bit slow off the mark, I know, but I've just discovered the marvelous "Blogger Review". It's part of the Google Groups network and once you join you can chat to fellow members, find new blogs to read and generally think about new ideas.

Linking to Flickr

Today I took some time to rediscover Flickr.   Photo sharing is simple.   Uploading is speedy and a quick description of favourite photos can be quickly written.   

One of the best features is the option to drag photos to a map of the World and link them, exactly, to the place they were taken.   Geotagging makes photography so much more real.

Having discovered the quick live link system here at Blogger, I've linked the Title above to a small collection of Flickr  photos compiled over the past few months.

Vote Here

Hitting the title link above
brings voters directly

Enjoy!

All the excitement about blogging has sent me around the Web, checking out posts and updating a bit here and there. Flickr is one of the best sites for uploading photos. My Teacher is a poster who keeps a monitoring eye and offers encouragement and new ideas.

We both post to Blather.net, one of the best Photo Sites on the Web. Anybody thinking about voting in the Irish Blog Awards might like to keep their work in mind. They have been nominated in several categories:
