(Since this is my first post on this blog after 3 years, my New Year’s resolution is simple: to update this blog more often, ideally at least once per month:-))

12 Mobile Photos Taken in 2012

Today I browsed through photos I’ve taken with my cell phone during the ending year. Some look quite well, so I decided to publish them here (and to take mobile photos more often during the next year).

(Plus, I also wanted to try the WordPress gallery feature… )

Tweet button and Google “+1” button added

Tweet and Google “+1” buttons were added under every post on this blog. Once again I appreciated the Thematic Framework and the whole concept of child-themes. Thanks to it, putting the buttons on the bottom of each post meant just creating two simple functions in functions.php file of the child-theme.

I decided to publish the code here, because even though it’s quite easy, it still took me some time to figure it out. I hope it will help someone at least a little.


function mytheme_share($content)
{
$tweetbutton = '<a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-url="' . get_permalink() .'" data-text="OK1CLD.info: ' . get_the_title() .'" data-count="horizontal" data-via="ok1cld">Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script>';
$plusone = '<g:plusone href="' . get_permalink() .'"></g:plusone>';
$content .= "<p>" . $tweetbutton . $plusone . "</p>";
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'mytheme_share', 0);

function mytheme_plusone_js()
{ ?>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js"></script>
<?php }
add_action('thematic_after', 'mytheme_plusone_js');

For more information how to add Tweet button to your webpage see http://twitter.com/about/resources/tweetbutton and if you wanna know how to add “+1” look at http://www.google.com/webmasters/+1/button/.

Partial solar eclipse 2011

At 9:21:39 UTC, I tried to take photo of today’s partial solar eclipse. The result is not very good, but since I had no tripod or stand and just a camera with simple filter, I think it could’ve been much worse – so I decided to post it here anyway.

I was very lucky to even take this shot, since the sky was completely overcast here in Eastern Bohemia the whole morning and the eclipse could be seen only for a moment almost at the end.

The photo in full resolution can be seen here.

IARU HF Championship 2010

During the weekend I participated IARU HF Championship… I liked it a lot, but can’t write about it right now, ’cause in two days I’m leaving for holidays and have no time… Hopefully I’ll write about it after I return… Looks like I’ve got some work to do on this blog, since I also promised to post here about my last Tuesday geocaching trip…
