Planning on making a trip to Rome, Venice or Florence? Check out the free digital travel guides from Schmap. The new editions contain some photos I took while vacationing there this spring. Schmap use Creative Commons-licensed photos from Flickr in their guides. They always politely ask for permission first even though strictly speaking they don’t [...]
Just now I finally finished tagging the last few photos taken in Venice. The whole set of Lieke’s and my vacation in Italy is now online. Total number of photos we ended up selecting is a whopping 411. You can start at the first new one since the previous update over here. Plenty of pretty [...]
Sometimes you learn something strange while tagging vacation shots. At least that was the case with this photo I took in Venice: Looking for some proper tags I Googled “K-141” and found a Wikipedia article on the Russian submarine Kursk. I pulled out the proper Russian text to use as tags but was puzzled about [...]
Flickr launched its geotagging feauture a few days ago. Today I came across a few raving posts on TechnCrunch, so I decided to give it a go. I’ve been geotagging my photos using Plazes for a while now (has it been more than a year already? This photo seems to prove as much.) I enjoyed [...]
The last few shots from Florence are up. Here’s the first new one in the set. Now it’s on to Venice, almost done! Fun fact: Florentine police use Segways to get around the station!

There’s around twenty. There’s a disproportionate amount of street art shots in this batch, here’s the one I [...]
I finally had the stamina to go throught the rest of my Rome photos. Another near 50 shots are in the set over at Flickr now. Next up is Florence! Here’s my favorite of this batch:
Back by dope demand. Yesterday I returned from my lovely trip to Italy. Dirty clothes are in the laundromat, I’ve caught up on paperwork and e-mail, now it’s time to start going through the huge amounts of photos. Me and my girlfriend have managed to knock off the first few days, but I’ve got literally [...]
I spend the morning going through my photos of Reboot 8.0. I had near 800 of them, so that was quite the exercise. Now there’s 147 in a set over at my Flickr account. It was nice to relive the whole experience while going through the shots, made me realize I saw and did a [...]
