Adventures at home, abroad, and online

Where’s Waldo?

Using the cyberhobo’s GeoMashup, I’ve started tagging posts with location data. This is used to create a map with the slick Google Maps API. For example, right now I’m at 460 Pacific Street, Monterey CA, or (36.599784,-121.896272) in decimal latitude and longitude. You can see a map of that location (where I should technically be doing actual work), by clicking the link above.

In the future, I’d like to get a GPS card and interface it with my email and WordPress, just like Randy Waterhouse in Cryptonomicon.

Lord of Hosts

I’ve switched hosts from Athena to a real server, so be patient as the photos come online. Since I won’t have access to MIT server space forever, it seemed like a good time to switch. And since my aunt Beryl wanted the domain, I am more than happy to let her pay.

Check out the fancy new stuff I can do, like have a Gallery embedded in the blog.

First Post!

This is your standard virtual ego-trip, and a testbed for my knowledge of standards-compliant web design. It’s sparse, but that’s the way I like it. The rollover menus and Quote-o-Matic may not work in IE. Stop complaining and get a real browser.

The photos on the left are slowly coming online. The system for generating the galleries works, but the images themselves are yet to be sorted. At least it gives me something to do while avoiding work.
