Blogger becomes more dynamic
Many of us use Google's Blogger platform and the company has just launched a series of 5 dynamic views, using HTML5.
This blog uses the platform and below are three example of the new views which you might choose to link to, in preference to your normal site views. Your site address remains the same with the addition of /view at the end of the URL. For example http://thedigitalconsultant.blogspot.com/view.
In your Blogger Settings go to Formatting and you will see that dynamic views have been set up as default.
Depending on your target audience you might choose to promote one of these views in preference to your normal template. For example http://thedigitalconsultant.blogspot.com/view/mosaic
If you have a travel or photography blog then a snapshot view is far more visually exciting and interactive than the standard fare.

Flickr Focus - Brighten Up Your Presentations
Here is an interesting tool called Tag Galaxy that demonstrates image association with a product, company or term.
In this example we type in a country name; Singapore. The galaxy presentation demonstrates those sub categories of images that are associated with the principal term.
The next step is to select either the principal "planet" or one of its satellites by double clicking on it.
Images are pulled from Flickr under the search term.
The completed visualisation can be rotated and is a useful tool in demonstrating image association with a product, place or service.
A screen shot of the graphic will also brighten up any corporate presentation.
And here is another handy tip. If you plan to upload whole albums of images to Flickr why not consider using a free tool like Bulkr to make the task easier.
