Australian International Motor Show 2006

Just a quick photo update here. I spent a good hour or two over at the motor show taking loads of photos of the shiny cars.

Went on a 10km walk from Spit Bridge to Manly and then hung out at Manly Beach and went swimming in the sea. There aren't many photos but believe me it was a really nice walk!



Google Customized Search Engines

I've just read from Eric Meyer's website that Google have released a new customized search engine that sounds exactly like the MSN Live Search Macros that I mentioned a while back. Back then I just assumed that Google would have already had something like this... Still no sign of a Google Search Web Service though, just like Microsoft have though?

One nice feature is that Google seem to have allowed multiple people to modify the search if desired but I'm not sure how useful this will be in the real world? Having said that I can't think of all the possibilities and having the feature is better than not having it, eh?! I do think that you should be able to list who is allowed to collaborate instead of the all or nothing approach.



Taronga Zoo

Sunday was the first day since I've arrived here that there have been almost clear skies so I jumped at the chance to get out to the zoo! I took about 200 photos but only uploaded 40 or so (from the whole weekend, not just the zoo). So take a look at some of the animals around the zoo - they aren't the best photos ever. A combination of glass and people (especially old people and kids) really held me back sometimes.

Check out some of the photos from out and about Sydney too!
