This vid could probably go into any of three threads, or warrant its own one, but for now I'll stick it here:

As another case of not wanting to start a new thread:

Anyone else use Drivecast? - http://drivecast.eu/

I'm very impressed at it after initially seeing it as a widget for my TV.

I now have access to my podcast subscriptions, the ability to schedule recordings of any internet radio, and sync them with any usb device (mp3/mp4 player, mobile phone etc or just an ordinary USB pen or memory card) from any computer with net access. Can also access them directly from my phone's browser or my TV.

Much more to it than that as well. As with all the best sites, simple but effective

^ what does drivecast cost ?

Nothing, it's free like all good services/software (unless you count the occasional ad in the corner of the site)

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here's a link which may be useful:
http://www.panoramio.com/
Part og Google, and the pictures can be linked to Google Earth, but it's an easy way to link to large pictures such as panoramas.
Here's a link for a nice one from the Ward of Bressay.

Click on the picture, click again to zoom, then drag or scroll the image to view.
