Chris Harrison - GPS Project
This page describes the steps I went through in my project to connect a Garmin eTrex Summit GPS device to a Nikon D200 camera body in order to record location information in the EXIF data of images captured using the setup. While this procedure worked fine for me, I do not take any responsibility for you or your equipment should you try this yourself. All images can be found in the "Equipment" photoset on my flickr account, here. A parts list in PDF format can be downloaded here. There are seven steps: Step 1 - The circuit diagram and initial circuit layout Step 2 - Soldering the components and jumpers to the breadboard Step 3 - Constructing the box to house the GPS Step 4 - Second stage of soldering, fixing camera and GPS cables, and fitting remote release socket Step 5 - Making the false floor to support the GPS and protect the circuitry and components Step 6 - Painting/finishing Step 7 - Constructing new Garmin to PC cable and downgrading GPS firmware
Using Images in Google documents - Official Google Docs Blog
As anyone working on a term paper, project plan, or party invitation will tell you, there’s a lot of truth in the old saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words.” With the new Google Documents editor, you can easily find and insert the perfect image into a document and it will behave exactly as you’d like it. To get started, select Image from the Insert menu. In Google documents, you can import images from your computer or from a URL. But sometimes you don’t have the image you want to use on hand. You can add any .gif, .jpg, .png, .bmp image file, up to 2 MB in size. Wrapping it upIt can be important for images in your document to interact in certain ways with your text. In the new version of documents, we’ve added a new setting for images -- Inline or Fixed. Meanwhile, a Fixed image will stay anchored to a specific paragraph, and your words will wrap around it. You can drag and drop the image around your document if the Fixed position is selected.

What can Google forms do for you and 800 students all at one time?
0 Comments June 21, 2009 By: Cheryl Oakes Jun 21 Written by: 6/21/2009 4:23 AM ShareThis This post demonstrates how effective and informative Google forms can be when planning a presentation and delivering a presentation. A few months ago, Kern Kelley, Alice Barr, Sarah Sutter, and I were asked to be part of a presentation in front of 800 MLTI students at a student conference on the University of Maine campus. Our session was titled : Block 3 - Only Google is big enough - Everyone, all together, one room, one session! In 2009 Good Questions are More Powerful Than Good Answers - Google Super Session (Alice Barr - Yarmouth High School; Kern Kelley - MSAD #48; Cheryl Oakes - Wells Ogunquit CSD; Sarah Sutter - Wiscasset High School)Maine's own team of Google certified educators will be leading the whole gang through a series of activities that will demonstrate the power of the Google Toolset. Here are the data points distributed on the global map. We had over 550 respondents answer our survey.

During the conversation, Jonathan Rochelle told us the story of how Google Docs, Google Drive and cloud collaboration came to be. Then, Eric Brunnett fielded questions about his company’s transition to Google Apps for Business and how they use shared Google documents and spreadsheets to streamline internal operations and communication.
