Mo, I'm a newb to the shared maps stuff, but I turned on collaboration and allowed anyone to edit the map. There should be an edit button and then you can add a placemark.

@Andrew...good point. I just changed it from public to unlisted which only makes the map available to those with the URL.

Even so, last time we had the Confessions account details on FF it was tinkered with.

is going to try and set-up the other FF comments plugin, which is here: http://www.gurkanoluc.com/friendf...
Kevin Pruett, WoH: Professor MOTHRA and Rory liked this
I'm going to try that one as well the first one i tried didn't work
- Rory
And guess what? This isn't working either. There is something very wrong with my site or with my host. Neither FF Comments plugins work, the Fresh Fresh From FF/Twitter doesn't import any FF-specific posts and Lifestream plugin is struggling to work. Do anyone of these have anything in common?
- Kol Tregaskes
Is that a WP site, Kol? I couldn't get any of the FF comment plugins to work on any of the Ning sites I part of, which is quite irritating because it works really well on my Blogger blog. EDIT: I see you're trying to use the 'comments' plugin on WP. The plugin I have tried is the FF widget (found under 'tools') and it works on Blogger but not Ning. If you get your WP one to work let me know 'cos I have a WP I'd like to us it on!
- WoH: Professor MOTHRA
I've got the 2 widgets working and have them both in my sidebar. Yeah it's just these plugins. :-( I'm trying to hardest to get them to work, especially one of these FF Comments plugins as it will mean I can post from my blog but still interact with FF.
- Kol Tregaskes
@Kol is it only on new posts? maybe you need to post a new item on the blog

They don't shoot lasers out? Are you SURE!? ;-)
- Jordan Hofker
Can I get a laser to put on my Nikon? Might come in handy if I need to defend myself.
- Tom Kimmerer
Thomas, your Canon may not shoot lasers, so perhaps you should check out Nikon if you want that feature. :P
- Kreg Steppe
Could they have mistaken laser for an auto focus assist light
- Rory
In all fairness, that laser was most probably just the autofocus assist lamp, which I suspect even the 5DII has and many people don't even know they can turn it off. It might not kill the fish, but it can scare them.
- michele
What about the lasers on the freaking sharks' heads?
- Alastair Montgomery
Actually, a permit system wouldn't be a bad idea (if it was free and without prejudice). I always consult the museum/gallery staff before firing away but still suffer the sideways glances and farrowed brows from the attendants. At least at the point of entry, the policies could be stated clearly before an incident could occur.
- Johnny
But what if I shoot lasers out of my eyes? When I'm taking a photo, surely the laser is going through the camera and into the fish, right? o_O
- Robert DeBord
Michelle, actually the 5D or the 5D M2 do not have an autofocus assist lamp.
- Thomas Hawk
Maybe they should have signs prohibiting laser pointers, in case a teacher brought a class there on a field trip. Otherwise, I don't run across many lasers while I'm out and about in a museum.
- William Beem
On a recent holiday I shot at Underwater World. Although I knew it was ok, I asked the reception about photography. The lady said "That's fine, just no flash photograhy". I asked here why and she replied "Honestly, cause it won't work. The light bounces off the glass and ruins people's photos. We use to get complaints about it all the time"... She also mentioned that by the time the light penetrates the glass and the water, it is no brighter than the fluorescent light bulbs they use to light the tanks.
- Johnny
ahhhh. the aquarium. i remember 2 or 3 laides were so busy telling us NOT to take pictures (even though we did not use a flash) -- that they missed the beauty around them. its too bad, really.
- Plug1
In general I agree with your post. But most cameras do use this auto focus assist light. On many cameras it is red or green or something other than white. Nikon uses a white light that is quite bright. My brother & I were shooting a fire juggling tightrope walking guy in Key West last year. Before he got on the wire he told everyone not to use a flash. My brother wasn't planning on using one but the autofocus light really bothered the guy and he about attacked him before I showed him how to turn it off.

Lowepro SlingShot 100 AW and a Lowepro Nova Mini AW. I use the SlingShot when hiking or doing a dedicated photo walk. The mini is great for places the Slingshot won't go (like museums, they tend to not like the slingshot since it sticks out behind you).

I am a big travel compact fan -- I have a LowePro Off Trail 1 - http://products.lowepro.com/product..., The Off Trail 2 is a bigger bag but similar.

Zee, restaurants are such a rip off on V day. They all work feverishly to push as many people through as possible. Fixed menu and in my opinion, reduced service. Plus all the people make it less than a romantic experience. I belive the better way to go is to either fix your own intimate meal or get several couples together to make it a memorable feast.
- Dave Ploch
If you / your partner like meat, or Argentine food, I'd highly recommend Gaucho (in Picadilly and other spots) - the meat is flown in from Argentina and can be cut with a butter knife. The empanadas are superb too, and the wines are excellent too. Here's a page for it: http://www.gauchorestaurants.co.uk/restaur...

Ours in smart casual though we can get away with casual on Friday's. Casual is guaranteed when working from home. ;-) I hate wearing anything smart! :-(

Pajamas? Flip flops? I work from home. :)
- Jen (SquirrelGirl)
Pajamas. I love it!

Comfy. :o) Jeans, tees, tennis shoes. You come in dressy or business like and they all ask if you have a hot date later. I like it because I like comfy.
- Just Kidée: Road Warrior
Smart casual, no t-shirts, shorts, stuff like that. The dress code is nice, IMHO.
- Molly Song ;)
smart casual, nothing too formal :)
- Niki Costantini
Me too Robot. :) I ultimately have to get dressed to encourage Anna to do the same, but I'd stay in PJs all day if I could. And on days like this - long socks. Definitely a dress code must have on cold days.
- Jen (SquirrelGirl)
Jen, me too most of the time. Though I tend to get washed dressed before I even go downstairs.
- Kol Tregaskes
"Business casual." It used to be strictly business with casual Fridays, but they only recently changed it to business casual all the time. Button down shirts or sweaters with khakis are the usual way to go now.
- James Ferguson
I tend to dress smart-ish no matter what the dress code is - I like looking nice. But all I buy is always comfy!
- Iphigenie
Depends what department and level you work at at my place. I generally go in wearing jeans and a smart t-shirt. If I know I have meetings with people I'll wear a shirt. I never wear a suit at work, for now at least anyway
- Rory
Dress code? What's that?

Extreme casual.

Andy, define "extreme casual"? ;-)

Extremely casual, too. In fact when people dress up, everyone whispers, "who's the suit?" and they're referring to someone in a polo and khakis.

Depends on your role. Smart to smart casual for client-facing people and smart casual to casual for everyone else. I like it. That's "business casual" for the Americans.
- xero
The naked count went up again, thanks Tamar. :-) That's probably a better image than Shawn though. ;-)
- Kol Tregaskes
Scrubs, which is fine by me. They're pretty comfortable and it means I don't have to pick out a different business-y outfit each day. I still wear stripey socks, though, just to mix it up and maintain my "individuality". :)

I travel to different office locations in NE region and we really have different "dress codes" going on...mostly business casual, some smaller offices are "ultra casual". Tomorrow, I am wearing a top notch suit that cost a very pretty penny as I'll be meeting the CEO of Nelnet tomorrow - so this whole dress code thing really varies by location and events onsite.
- Susan Beebe
they just changed our code to "business casual". which sucks. but i'm outta here in 4 weeks anyway. ;-)

so, why are "you" single? is it a choice?
Christian (Simply X), Morton Fox, Steven Perez and 5 other people liked this
Lack of interest on their part. However, even if there were takers, it probably wouldn't last long. My Mom is a very demanding patient.
- Yolanda
well, as for me, it's not a choice i have made consciously. I don't know about the 80% thing. maybe people think they'd be happy with 80% but then when they actually have the 80%...the last 20 starts looking pretty good. i think i was just a guy's 80%... maybe only his 70%... but I think when he first met me, he thought i was going to be at least his 95%. so then you kind of feel like you watched him slowly wake up to his reality. ohh... gahh.
- edythe
Fear.
- Mo Kargas
I became single by choice. I've remained single partly by choice and partly because there are no local women i've met that i'd want to (or could) have a relationship with. There are some online i'd probably leave this room for but I'll be staying single until i meet someone i know i'll enjoy for more than a few weeks/months.

Maria you say Drugs and alcoholism are deal breakers, well I like drugs and alcohol :)

Purely by my own choice. I'd rather not have the hassle, and I'm pretty bad when it comes to keeping commitments, for what it's worth. Not to mention that I don't have a great deal of time these days...

Doesn't help that I don't smoke or drink alcohol (so I have no excuse to go to a pub), I'm shy, not very confident, and little spoken off the Internet. I've never really cared much for chasing people around, either, and I'm happy enough as I am...
- Tyson Key
Tyson, I'm right there with you. I don't drink or smoke, I'm EXTREMELY shy, and lack confidence. I wouldn't say I'm happy, though. :/

- Ale♪nastrorosa
Recently divorced, or emancipated as I like to call it. It wasn't my choice in the beginning....but I'm glad about it now.
- Christian (Simply X)
for me it's a bit through choice and a bit not, I've been in love once and have had one other serious relaitonship (well I thought it was!) and have a slight reluctance to get hurt again plus I lack in self confidence a bit and get nervous around any women I think might be interested in me. However I'm quite liking the single life, I answer to no-one but myself, I'm getting to do things I want to and go to places I want, I'm indulging more and more in things that are making me happy
- Rory
More or less.

Not really single by choice. I just get friend-zoned often. That or I just lose interest in people. There's only so much "pursuing" you can do before it's time to take the hint and move on.

I saw a very young James Taylor make his solo debut at the Troubadour in LA in 1969. Does that count as a concert? I think it was a pretty decent first live music experience. :)
- Kevin Gamble
George Jones and he showed up, but my mom insisted that I be home by 10pm, so I only got to see a little of his performance. It must have been somewhere between 93 and 95. My first non country music was Live in 1995.
- Heather Solos
Simple Minds; though, with my family I saw many a country and bluegrass concert, Simple Minds was the first I bought tickets for and drove to myself.

My first proper concert was going to Weezer at the Astoria when I was 16. Cast and Coast were supporting. The gig was rescheduled from a few weeks earlier, can't remember why though

My first concert was those guys that sang that song "I wanna be a Cowboy and you can be my cow girl..." The concert didn't matter to me (can't even remember the band's name)... it was getting to go to the big city (Spokane, WA) with my girlfriends. After that, I moved to Orange County and saw Depeche Mode at the Colliseum, David Bowie, U2, and one of those concerts was opened by Siouxsie and the Banshees. So I guess I made up for my first concert experience.

gets annoyed when people share other people's artwork (photography, CG, traditional, etc.) and not link to the original and note the artist!

Agree.
- Håkan Dahlström
Note to all on FF, when you upload a piece of artwork please add the link to the original piece. There is a box provided for adding a URL. Anything that can eventually get us to the original image is better than nothing. The artists themselves would appreciate it a lot and I know from experience would be extremely frustrated if you didn't.
- Kol Tregaskes
Pixdaus is the worse for this!
- Joe Dawson
Sure, if the origin/artist is known.
- Jemm
This really bothers me when I see it happen. However, there have been many times that I've shared an image on FF that I found on soup.io or some variation thereof that doesn't provide source links. :\
- Brandon
Sometimes I find Images that I put together In a theme from different places, but I'll try to keep it in mind! I agree, although it's not always the easiest to do.
- Michael Fidler
And many pics circle through so many places that sometimes it is impossible to tell, where did it originate from in the first place.
- Jemm
I've also sometimes not found the source links, but do hunt down the original artists when I have time and if possible.
- Mo Kargas
It's fair enough if you cannot find the original but a little not the affect would be nice. But I've seen people do this all the time. Any link is better than nothing. I suppose we could all use services like TinEye to find the source, though?
- Kol Tregaskes
TinEye? I'll look it up
- Mo Kargas
I have Google Alerts telling me when Google finds my Flickr and Da URL anywhere and regularly find my pics used without a link back. Fair enough not to ask for permission if it's one of my freebies but just link back, simple please!
- Kol Tregaskes
Kol - I've only just seen google alerts, looks interesting what settings do you have for your flickr stuff to pick up on that?
- Rory
Jemm has a good point. I run most images through tineye, and sometimes the images are used so many times it's impossible to figure out who the original artist is. It's not always the first in the list. I love tineye, but sometimes it can make things even more confusing, or take one to sites, I might rather not visit. I'm going to make a greater effort to credit the origianl photographer/artist in the future. Thanks, for bringing this up!
- Michael Fidler
from twhirl
Kol - would love to know how you configure google alerts for finding images from your flickr stuff
- siggimus
I use my URLs in the search criteria, so "koltregaskes.deviantart.com" and "flickr.com/photos/koltregaskes" as well as "squashyfrog.com" and others. That gets anything linked to my sites.
- Kol Tregaskes
I also search for my name "kolin tregaskes" and "kol tregaskes" - I'm lucky in the fact that I'm the only one. ;-) This gets me anything not linked but has mentioned me.
- Kol Tregaskes
If they don't mention me and don't link well I'm stuffed I think but maybe TinEye may help me out - not had a good look at the service yet.
- Kol Tregaskes
Michael, I'd rather had a link to something, anything rather than no link at all. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
as others have noted, it's very hard sometimes to know the source. Mo, have you really tried tineye? DB is not great
- Duncan Riley
This sorta doesn't work. I've seen people post photos with a link going back to the artist's site and people still get into flame wars over attribution. They're just lazy.
- Anika
Hard sure, but not that hard. I'd be happy if you linked back without permission, of course, why would I need to get in a flame war about that? I'd flame them if they didn't link though!
- Kol Tregaskes
yeah, i'm guilty of failing to properly attribute flickr CC stuff at times on my blog. new resolution for 2009!
- MikeAmundsen
Hopefully TinEye & Google will solve this problem in the future for us. If TinEye takes off, maybe someone will make some simple algorithm to attempt to find the source (like searching through all the TinEye result-webpages for the oldest references and matching with "reputation"/Flickr-like known photographer websites).
- Mitchell Tsai
One of my tiny pet peeves... (1) you put your name on your photos (2) but have no internet presence or your name is so common that I can't Google you (3) the e-mail on your photo also doesn't work anymore... I've searched for photographer websites soooo many times with no success. (Guesstimate - 20-40% of the time I can't locate you even with your watermark or when someone mentions your name).
- Mitchell Tsai
Some good points there, Mitchell.
