Promoting an older blogger

Mrs Lifecruisers Mom Lifelessions blog

We’re going out all day today, testing our car (!), shopping and visiting Mom Lifecruiser. So I will share another blog with you so you get something totally different to read in the meantime.

I don’t normally do this, but as it runs in the family, I would like to introduce you to my old mothers blog, Lifelessions.

There should be a lot more of older bloggers out there, it’s so educational to read!

Go to Lifelessions, the old chick blogger

Cruise list: Sisiggy, Dot, Mrhaney, and Dirty Butter.

Gchart gets local time and blogs

Posted by Lifecruiser in Travel, Useful

We hope that you haven’t missed the fantastic map service on the internet to look up other blogs in certain areas of interest or get to know the local time in certain places.

Just click some where on the map and you get the local time, international calling code, area code and some blogs from that area - can it be any easier?

There even are features for making friends, travel information and more, maybe not so interesting things….

Flickr debute for our photos

Posted by Lifecruiser in Attention, Travel, Useful, Photo

At last, done with our Flickr Pro account!!!

We have a lot of photos to choose between so I suspect that we’ll have a lot to do for a long time ahead sorting out the good ones and uploading all of them to flickr….

The first ones out is from our journey to the guest ranch in Paraguay and Iguazu falls, after that it will be a few from Brazil and then from our other passed journeys too.

Take a peek at our Flickr photostream at their site OR by the cool photo badge (flash) in the right sidebar on this page. We have even added a menu choice “Photo” in the top of this blog, which will take you to our flickr photostream.

Enjoy our photos :-)

Cruise list: Happy and Blue.

Save webpages for ever

Posted by Lifecruiser in Useful

“hanzo:web is a new service that enables you to save and archive web pages, collections of linked pages and even whole sites on the web. The beauty of this tool is that you can access and browse these pages or sites even when the original site ceases to exist”.

Click here to go to Hanzo:web

NOTE: Web pages content can be BIG, so be careful with the option to save hole web sites if you only have the Free version with 100 MB/month…

It would be nice to save our old websites/blogs there. Hm, or maybe not….? How ever, it would be nice to save some really special websites there.

Not ours then :-)

Event Calendar for your blog

Posted by Lifecruiser in Useful

This is a cool tool for the busy ones who has a slight case of altzheimers or dementia (or bad cases like us).

If you publish the Calendar badge on your blog, you get a lot of help from other people reading it and reminding you. If it is stuff you want to be reminded of, of course. Do not write about embarrassing things there. Or, come to think about it: please do that!

You can share calendar with a bunch of people, for example, the other maniacs you fool around with.

There is the option to mark the event as private or public, but we prefer if you do not mark all the naughty stuff you write there as private ;-) Do not be stingy, share your most private details with every one on the hole world wide web. Exciting yes?

There is a widget for your own computers desktop too, so you can sit in piece and quiet and write down everything nice that is happening in your life. Or nothing if you having a boring life. Then another feature is very helpful - when you are out surfing and see some cool event on other sites, you can add that to your calendar.

One of the most useful feature is that you can choose to be reminded by email for important events - if you remember to click that choice….

All your fans can subscribe to your Calendar with rss-feed. Need we say more?

All this fabulous stuff and more (for free!) with the excellent CalendarHub!!!

You can se how the badge is looking in the sidebar to the right of this page, between Categories and Monthly. If you click on the headline in the badge (Events), you can have a look at our calendar.

NOTE: It is a BETA-version, still improvements needed, but hey, it is free….

Prejudice around the world

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys, Useful

Look up what people in the world are known for, and hey, if you do not like what it is saying about your country - do not blame us for that, blame Google!

A small request from this Swedes:

What the heck means with the word Austerity????? They say that the Swedes are that, but we do not even know what the word means… And we can not find it in the dictionairy!

Could someone explain it to us please, so we know how we shall behave to be really Swedish….?

In the meantime we will drink our coffee and carve our Viking longboats!

Our Cool Froogle wishlist

Posted by Lifecruiser in Odditys, Useful

OK, we admit it: we are really weird!!! (As you have not noticed that already *lol*)

Now we have created a Froogle wishlist with things that we do not need, but it would be cool if we had. This will make us geeks more cool. At least I think so… Not sure of some of the items though!

I am sure that you suddenly will feel an urgent need to buy us the cool stuff:

What do you think about them? We want to be more cool, what is your favourite of them? (Do not miss that it is more than 1 page!)
