Guadec approaching..

Friday, July 13th, 2007

So, its this time of the year again. For those who have the Nokia internet tablets and are going to be there, this might be useful (I created a small location database for maemo mapper, containing some things related to guadec 2007)

Daily Source Code #545 mentions GPS and N800

Wednesday, February 14th, 2007

Dear lazyweb, how hard is it to make Adam Curry who ponders Nokia N800, GPS and some clever code to find out about Geoclue? (hi! good show!)

FL370 - 37000 feet in the sky.

Internet and Lufthansa free promotion offer. Sweet. Thanks everyone for a very interesting Summit. I am on my way back home, somewhere above the UK I would guess. The 770 really works fine for the copious legroom and space of *ahem* less than first class
Does anyone know a flight tracking service one could […]

Geographic fun everyone!

We’re making nice progress in GeoClue in GnomeSummit. Lots of people got interested in the idea, and a lot of lively brainstorming and excitement: “So I want to make GWeather show your current weather automatically, based on your location!” etc.. Awesome!

Happy Hackers brainstorming GeoClue
One of our projects is to have our hacker community more location […]

Geotagging blog posts

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

Does anyone know if there is a way to add geotags into blog posts via any of the weblog API’s?
Another thing that we need to figure out is how to add those tags into blog RSS feeds. The goal is to get Planet to become aware of the location of each post, so we can […]

They made it!

The DeathMonkey race is over, two of three guys are in Gibraltar, and even the third got very close before having his vechicle stolen in Pamplona. Duh..
“Bob” aka “The guy I did the GUADEC talk with” used his Nokia 770 to blog from the trip, looks like it was a useful tool for that. Need […]

Quick maps

Monday, July 17th, 2006

Stumbled on this pretty nice site which lets you plot stuff on a map, using the google maps API and lets you either link to the map (like this) or embed it on your own site (let’s see how this works, below - and whether planet likes it or not..)

Edit: Ok, looks like planet […]

I have interesting friends..

Monday, July 3rd, 2006

Of course all of you are interesting and wonderful, my dear readers, no doubt about that. But this time I want to tell you about the guy I did my GUADEC talk with - Henri. He’s on the road again, thundering down Sweden towards Gibraltar. In a Honda Monkey - the mini-moped, with 2 other […]

Testing..

Friday, June 30th, 2006

Lets see whether this plugin works any better for geotagging..
Also, this was interesting.
Now we also need a way for the blog to remember my location, so I dont have to specify it for every post separately. Ideally of course, my desktop would update it through a xmlrpc api..

Wordpress and Geotagging

Thursday, June 29th, 2006

I found a Wordpress plugin that does geotagging of posts. I need to see how well it works and whether it tags the RSS feed with location as well. And whether there is an xmlrpc interface to set the location and whether it is possible to do it via the blog api - then my […]
