This new gallery is experimental and will need some tweaking, as well as new photographs. But it seems to work fine as long as you have Java installed and enabled on your browser (that’s Sun Java, not to be confused with Javascript). Come and have a look at the 4 panoramas installed so far and please be patient initially as the images loading are anywhere between 150 and 500 Kb in size!

)arrow If you haven’t, make sure to check out this idea: StumbleUpon is a - free - tool that lets you browse, review and share great webpages. It lets you select categories as a way of refining your tastes and interests, and tailors its results to you. You can associate with people sharing those tastes for even better results. When you find a page you really like, voting for it is as easy as a click; if the page hasn’t been reviewed by a StumbleUpon user yet, you can write the first review.

StumbleUpon installs itself as a little toolbar in your browser. If you are ever bored on the web, click the Stumble! button and a random site matching your interests will appear. I’ve found absolute gems this way, it’s totally addictive! Read the Wikipedia definition.

The next few posts are from the Mont St-Hilaire trails where I usually run. I figured the scenery was worth slowing down today.
