New Photoblog

Some of you may have visited my Picture of the Day photo blog at https://www.hang-out.co.uk/potd/

I’ve decided to give it its own domain so I’ve registered daily-photo.net and moved the blog there. I’ve also taken the opportunity to change the theme.

Please let me know what you think, and if you’re subscribed by RSS to Picture of the Day, please resubscribe to Daily Photo.

Finally, trying Blogo

I’ve already paid for Blogo by BrainJuice, but haven’t used it much, so I’m writing this post in Blogo to see how it compares with MarsEdit and myBlogEditor.

Testing MarsEdit

Another well-known and popular blog editor for Mac OS X is MarsEdit by Red Sweater. I’m trying it now for comparison.

Testing myBlogEdit

This is a test of a Mac OS X blogging application: myBlogEdit.

myBlogEdit

It seems friendly and easy to use. It’s downloaded my latest posts with no problems – what’s it like to write with?

So far so good…

Great Gadget Website!

Is this the greatest online gadget shop ever?

DealExtreme.com was mentioned as a Pick of the Week by Ron Brinkmann on the This Week in Photography podcast. I checked it out this morning and it has absolutely loads of great items at low prices and with free shipping to the UK and the USA.

I particularly like the tiny LED keychain lights that they sell. I’ve ordered a 10-pack for under $4.00.

AudioBoo

This is fun. AudioBoo is a new social networking service which allows you to record your short (up to three minutes) thoughts, observations and commentary and upload them for all to hear. Stephen Fry (already very popular on Twitter) uses the service and is, as always, very funny.

And, of course, there’s the inevitable iPhone application as well so you can Boo on the move!

  • August in France (with a weekend in Portugal!)
    A lovely month of rest and relaxation with the odd tiny drama and some more travel adventures … I expected no less! We arrived in Seytroux 3 days after we left the boat, having travelled by taxi, bus, plane, car and ferry … only helicopter missing! A long haul via Epsom to see my mum […]
  • … and finally, Denmark to Sweden …
    We had 2 more Danish stops en route to Swedish waters. Both passages were 60 or so nautical miles so longish days. Winds were strong – force 5, 6 and 7 so constant sail adjustment and, as we were beating up wind, Mistral was constantly heeled over – tea, coffee and lunch making duties all […]
  • Germany to Denmark … an engine problem?
    An early start to sail into Danish waters, up to an anchorage on the north east of Tasinge Island. A challenging sail as once again, we were navigating narrow channels with shallow waters. We had force 5 westerly winds so some good sailing … very happy to turn the motor off, especially as it had […]
