As of this week, adding a Google map, or even better, your Google “MyMaps”, to your webpage is a snap (pardon the pun). You know how simple it is to embed a youTube video into your blog? Well, it’s that simple. Here’s a short tutorial to show you how simple it actually is. We’ll create a custom google MyMap, add a Mapplet, embed some photos from our flickr account, save the map, and embed it within a website (in this article)… no problemmo! To finish I’ll offer up a couple of photo geotagging tools for those of you with GPS-enabled cell phones and a tool for mannual geotagging for those with no access to GPS. If you enjoy Google maps, flickr, and geotagging photos then this tutorial is for you.
A photo tip – embed your flickr slideshow into your blog in seconds
Wow, just stumbled onto an awesome flickr slideshow tool… you know that I’m a flickr fanatic, however, I didn’t know about this app so I hope you enjoy as much as I do… this one will be really handy so be sure to bookmark this post! FlickrSlidr allows users to easily and quickly embed a flickr slideshow into your website(or blog). Alter the size, the flickr set to display, and then mess with the speed. See below for a slideshow of my 2007 ESRI User Conference photos.. enjoy!
