Google Earth or Google Maps overlay for Czech golf courses
January 27, 2008 – 11:14 pm
I wanted to do this myself, but first I searched, if somebody wasn’t faster. And there I found it. Complete kmz file for all Czech golf courses with some basic info like address, email and www of each course. It includes a bit of advertising for the map creators but I think this is much […]
Facebook OpenID App
June 18, 2007 – 8:56 pm
Update: This has been implemented at identitu.de. I’m not sure if the implementation details are exactly as described in this post, but they seem so. See (de)railed blog for details.
Facebook does not officially support OpenID. But would the Facebook Platform make it possible for 3rd party developers to implement OpenID App on top of it? […]
Google Maps Street View and my memories of NY
June 3, 2007 – 7:01 pm
Google has done another big thing. They released the Street View feature for their maps. As with every google announcement the blogosphere is exited with a post about it every few minutes. And as with almost every google product people are asking if it compromises our privacy. Maybe, may be not. I don’t have a […]
Blogging harder than seems

Yeah, yeah, I have not posted anything for last two months. TWO MONTHS! Yes, I know some of my friends told me this would happen. I just never believed it would come so fast. Looking at the access statistics, there is about 15 visits per day on the blog. What are the people reading? The […]

ClaimID has announced new feature: contacts (see also Fred’s blog post). This makes ClaimID, originally an elegant service for keeping and verifying links about oneself, a social network a bit like LinkedIn, Orkut, Myspace… The big difference is, that to connect with someone, he does not have to be a ClaimID user, he just needs […]
The Bank of All My Friends (Flickr Group)
March 19, 2007 – 11:26 pm
The Bank of All My Friends is one of those funny useless things I can’t resist. This flickr group is about photographing half of someone’s face with half of a face on any bank note. Fortunately, Czech government does not plan to introduce Euro, the headless currency, till 2012 so we still have some time […]
New RDFa bookmarklets
March 10, 2007 – 6:26 pm
Ben Adida has announced new version of RDFa bookmarklets.
That’s great news. The bookmarklets should work on this site too - I have added some RDFa markup in this blog template: some DC and SIOC around each blog post and my homepage has a little bit of FOAF. I would also like to SIOCify comments in […]
Testing my new vintage folding camera - Agfa Isorette
February 22, 2007 – 5:08 pm
Some time in December I read a lot about middle format cameras. I found out I couldn’t afford a medium format SLR. Than this site selling vintage folding cameras caught my attention. After trying to resist the temptation I gave up and searched for those cameras in local second hand photo shop. I found one […]
Czech Budweiser is better than American Budweiser
February 21, 2007 – 1:37 am
I find Jyte a funy funy well done web2.0 OpenID enabled site. So much so, I couldn’t resist creating a claim:
And now I’d better stop playing with the site and get some sleep.
