This week I have been battling with GoogleMaps and Blogger applications to effectively share my recent holiday with the electronic world. There was so much to experiment with I decided the project needed its own page. Click here to view details of my recent Great Ocean Road Adventure (also linked at the top of my Home page).
As I had already used Flickr in the past I thought I would try a different photo program for my album and inevitable slideshow. I chose Photobucket because it was mentioned on this Blogger site so I figured they would be compatible. Photobucket works the same as Flickr with its options to upload photos and give them tags and titles to make them easier to find. Though it was very user friendly it does have advertising on its homepage, which Flickr seems to do without.
I also uploaded some of my photos to my markers on my GoogleMap and imbdeded the map into my blog. As I am fairly new to all this it has taken me a long time to organise my data (maps, photos, slideshow and video) to then embed into other programs. I can only admire the programmers of sites like Mashpedia from afar. That site is so amazing that needs an entry of its own. I think I'll leave that for tomorrow.
