footprints in googleland

Wow... It has certainly been a while. Just joined Google+ and rediscovered all the stuff I left in various Google places...including here. So... Google+ - (lol, "+ -") will it appeal the whatever -illion odd Google users and take the world by (further) storm? Sometimes I feel Google has such a huge buffet of interweb things on offer that its hard to disentangle functionalities and applications one from the other... Or ...maybe thats the whole point! A Google web, a (gooweb?ha, goo!) to ensnare all of us so we become Google minions (wow ok, spooky conspiracy angle much?). I should just mention here that I've had a lot of coffee today... Anyhows... might try and revive this blog-thing. Maybe in a little while though... because after trying to clean up my Google interweb trail of footprints, I am now out of time and have to skedaddle to go and play some volleyball with some other enthusiastic sand gropers :)

Hi folks!

It has been a while since I last posted - I apologise - it has been a busy period in my life. I hope now that my schedule is more permantly sorted that I will to be able to post weekly or fortnightly - woot! Regular new content... Bring it on.

So... to start with, I have approximately 1 minute to finish this post. So this ones a quick link/video share. The latest episode of 'Geospatial Revolution' is out - take a look if you have time, its another set of interesting examples of applied GIS.

Geospatial Revolution / Episode Three from Penn State Public Broadcasting on Vimeo.

The third episode explores geospatial technology in the world of security: how new technologies help to broker peace, wage war, and fight crime but can also compromise personal privacy.

More to come next week.... :)
