I mentioned elsewhere that Matt announced tags feeds this morning but I thought this should get more of a plug because it’s such a great feature!
When you write a post on WordPress.com it’s categorised in the usual way but it’s also added to a site-wide pool of posts and identified by a global category. Matt’s announcement this morning means that I can track what people are talking about photography, photos, gimp and even wordpress all from the comfort of my aggregator!
Now, how best to encourage people to rename that “Uncategorized” category so their posts are picked up?

Photos From Space
APOD had two interesting photos over the last few days:
- APOD: 2005 November 14 – Everest Panorama from Mars – click on the image for a *huge* panorama!
- Lunation – animation of the moon over the course of a month.
Jintle has a lot more space photos too!
Photoblogger/Flickr Meetup at Clarion Hotel Tomorrow!
If you have a camera, run a photoblog or you’re in town, there will be a meet up tomorrow in Cork!
Everyone will gather in front of the Clarion Hotel at 2pm tomorrow where we’ll plan our photographic assault on the city!
It’s also the Jazz Weekend here in Cork so there’ll be plenty of interesting subjects to shoot!
For more info, and a map, look at this Upcoming.org page, or Ryan’s Blog!
See you there!
WordPress Flickr DHTML Badge Plugin
I Like the look of those Flickr badges running on a lot of sites. I don’t like that it uses Flash though so imagine my delight when I came across the WordPress Flickr DHTML Badge Plugin. It’s easy to install and configure, and only needs one line added to your sidebar.php to activate!
I’m already running it on In Photos and it’s great!
And in case that’s not enough, here’s some more Flickr goodness!

Photo Friday: Darkness
I entered the Photo Friday ‘Darkness’ competition a few days ago with my Flight Over Water photo from a few days ago.
Hope I get a couple of votes but some of the competing photos are very good!
FAlbum – WordPress Flickr Plugin
Wow! I’m impressed! FAlbum is a Flickr plugin for WordPress. It’s simple to install and configure, except make sure you put the rewrite rules above any WP ones, especially if you’re using WP 1.6!
It displays your Flickr albums, most recent photos, and lots of other pretty stuff, all inside your blog!
There’s a longer feature list above, and a few demo pages. This is definitely one project I’m going to keep an eye on for the future!
Later… The FAlbum plugin is now running on my new photography site In Photos displaying all my Flickr photos in a nice album!
How'd he do that?
In Behind the photograph #001, Paul Watson shows how he processed a dramatic sunset photo. It is Photoshop specific but some of the techniques work in the GIMP too – that b/w burn layer tip is very dramatic!
