I started thinking about moving my photo album to the Flickr. It’s good idea. Especially because Flickr offers an excellent integration with WordPress. To insert a bar with your Flickr photos into your blog you can easily use badge. Passed just six simple steps you’ll get HTML-code with customized view to insert it into blog. It may be used to notify blog-readers about your new photos.
To integrate Flickr albums belonged to you use Flickr Photo Album plugin for WordPress. It allows to embed your sets into wordpress design. This is definitely what I need. I’m going to buy pro account and start to moving all my photos right after my vacation.

WRC Cyprus Rally: Down Town Special
Today we watched a DTS – Down Town Special. We found a place near turn where pilots go to second track. It was amazing! Competion of well-known WRC pilots in the old city! We took a few fotos and made four small video clips:
It was the best stage of the Cyprus rally IMHO! Henning Solberg on his Peugeot 307 WRC gladdened rally fans when he made a 360 degree turn right after start! Peter Solberg drove risky but showy (as usual). I like his style. Sebastien Loeb and Markus Gronholm were careful but they were the best 😉
WRC Cyprus Rally: SS Kellaki – Foinikaria
Today I, Maria and our firend Helen were on the special stage 13 Kellaki – Foinikaria of WRC Cyprus Rally. We came to the stage’s begin one our before start. So, we had a time to find a place with good view. How to describe my feeling? Surge of adrenalin, dust, gulp of clear air, again surge of adrenalin and so on … Solberg drove dangerously but amazinly showy! But … Gronholm is still the best!
I took a few shots. They can impart at least small a part of Cyprus Rally spirit!
Tomorrow we are going to be on Down Town Special. Tickets are already bought!

The future of social web apps
I came across this article published on thinkvitamin.com. I found there many ideas which are similar to mine:
Like you, I’ve got a million things to do and I’m constantly battling to keep on top of my inbox and RSS reader. The last thing I want to do is add another thing to that already-way-too-long list.
I like web services such Flickr, del.icio.us, Gmail, Bloglines but I don’t use their social part too much. Maybe I’m not so social person or maybe I don’t have enough time.
Anyway, the article is useful to understand a conception of social (and not social) web apps in the future. Moreover, there are a few new services which can be interesting for you. For myself I discovered Netvibes – amazing place which may agregate a lot of others web services, LinkedIn – resource for linking with business partners and Basecamp – service, developed by 37signals and offered TODO list, file sharing and more. But last one has too expensive price for me.
