All the parallel projects to this one

Minor updates

This blog is continuously evolving, call it Kaizen meets the blogosphere, so I decided it was time to release a few more RSS feeds, as some of my friends find subjects like Scrum or J2EE a bit boring. Now there are separate feeds for each main subject of this blog. Yes, I could create a blog for each of these subjects, but that would result in too much work and too many links to manage.

And now a little bonus: a feed that combines all my main photo galleries in one place, the result of my initial explorations with Yahoo Pipes.

All of these feeds are available in the Feeds section just below (just find the little orange icon).

Pipes?!…

One of the most curious, and strange, web applications that appeared in this thing we call Internet has to be Yahoo! Pipes. In just a few words, but Lifehacker have a more detailed review, this tool lets you gather information from several places around the web (usually using RSS), transforms it and exports the results into one place. The best part is that this happens using a neat graphic interface, no HTML code or technical knowledge is needed, I just used it for a couple of minutes but  I already created something I was needing for some time: a way to combine the updates of my photo galleries in one place, usefull for publising it as a RSS feed.

[update] Frantic Industries has a nice article about Yahoo! Pipes.

New Year for many people means new resolutions and new projects, although I’ve abandoned new year resolutions a long time ago I’m starting the year with a brand new project.

It’s a joint blog that will combine images and words (photography and poetry to be a bit more accurate) in a way that isn’t clear for us, yet… I’ll be in charge of all the photography related matters, unless my writing skills dramatically improve in the near future allowing me to contribute with something else.

I’m eager to see how this will evolve in the next months.

Para lá da superficie

 
Originally uploaded by t3mujin.

“Para lá de superfície” (in English “Beyond the surface”) is photography book, included in a scientific investigation project, combining the works several people, photographers or not, and completely dedicated to the sea.

As for my humble contribution, it’s a handful of photos from my Cinque Terre set, including the one in this post (the cover of the book).

I haven’t got any more details, but I’ll post them as soon as they’re available.


New look, again…

Yes, I decided to change the look of this blog once again.

Red Train is a cool theme, but it’s too "strong" for this blog and I was trying to find someting that would blend a bit better with my other sites: TemujinPhoto and TemujinPhoto|Blog, so I went for this one, much more cleaner and simple than the previous.

Your feedback will be gladly received.

 

Nikon FM2 Users @ Flickr

I’ve been a Flickr user for a while and I’ve been quite pleased with it, I love how it works (like  tagging, geotagging and many other features) and it’s simplicity, but there was one thing that bothered me, not with the site itself but the community: there was plenty of groups dedicated to all kinds of cameras, but none of them to my long time favorite and workshorse. So my guess was to create one and hope there were many other FM2 users, just like me, in the FlickrUniverse waiting for this; the answer is yes and nowadays there are few and talented users, not many but enough, that submited a few hundreds of photos to this group.

TemujinPhotoBlog

…And now here’s some cheap promotion to my latest dumb project: there’s a blog, and there’s photos, add some words (not much), mix it all and there you have:

TemujinPhotoBlog

TemujinPhoto

It has begun!
I’m already working in the port of my photography site Temujin Photo to Ruby On Rails, nowadays its just plain HTML. The design will remain the same, the idea is to add a bit more of flexibility on the server side, implement the current external services (stuff like the newsletter and the guestbook) and do a couple of other things; all of this while exploring a new web framework.

As soon as it’s over I’ll be able to move it to the future domain (www.temujinphoto.com) and possibly with some surprises.

I’ll be posting the updates on this here.

Facelift!!!!

Kubrick is a fine looking theme for WordPress but it’s way too common, so it’s time for something new.

…and this time in red!
