A trip down memory lane for some, for others you have the fun to come.

Inspired by Noel Jenkins, I’ve been having a play with Google Maps for a couple of projects I want to work on over the coming year. The maps are now embeddable, you can add images and videos as well. Here is an example of a Berlin walk from the MFL-Humanities visit, including a video from student blogger Stringy, it took me around twenty minutes. Direct link.

Thanks to Mary for producing these quizzes about geography in the news this summer. Have a go at En Garde and Shoot the Hoop, how did you do?

I’ve been having a play with Animoto this evening, it allows you to produce impressive looking videos of your images. You only upload images and if you wish music, the website does all the hard work mixing the final product. I uploaded from my flickr account and used the music available. Short movies are free. This video shows images from our Japanese Exchange.
