I'm getting into QTVR panos, I'd like to do some at Vloggercon. Are there any good San Francisco places that lend itself to 360 degree panoramas? See [ for some reason, my website is down at http://www.comet-track.com/eclipse/secl06/secl06.html ] [ that pano with the umbrella & bay, is the place in Dahab where the terrorist bombing happened. The CNN article referred to "body parts" flung into the bay..that was the place! I was eating breakfast there & my hotel was 100 ft away. I missed getting blown up by 4 weeks! ] I'd like to do one, with some Vlogger pioneers in the pic. Say, at the San Francisco water front. Or, the Exploratorium: at one of the exhibits, say video-technology one. Or, do some conventional photography (get creative) with pioneers like: xxx [ I need to know who they are, I'm not that well informed in this regard ] Sidenote: Check out the Exploratorium's video-podcast of their Live eclipse project: Mine is also avialable on the "Eclipse Science" video-podcast over iTunes, see the video-blog at: [ scroll way down to the bottom, or click on upper-right icon to take yourself to iTunes ] I blogged my entire eclipse trip: I was amazed at the Internet connectivity in all the Egypt places I went, even a hole-in-the-wall Internet Cafe in Sallum/Egypt (small border town, Egypt & Libya border): [ this Internet Cafe was in a back-alley, on the 2nd floor..talk about 3rd world type of thing. They were using *shared bandwidth* over get this..DIALUP!! Man, were the downloads slow! But, it was nevertheless a Internet hookup. The manager was Egyptian, with an American wife in Detroit..unbelievable. ] Check out this Internet Cafe in Marsa-Matrouh (between Sidi Barani & El Alamein..big names in WWII history): [ that's a very attractive Internet Cafe operator, BTW! ] There was a really excellent Internet Cafe in Dahab (along Red Sea, across from Saudi Arabia..north of Sharm El-Sheikh, that place the politicians goto to meet about "Middle East issues" ]. Don't have a pic, but it was DSL access & the manager spoke good English & was very knowledgable..who was Christian BTW. I have his contact into (email). Unfortunately, Dahab was the place that got hit by the "terrorist bombing" (One man's terrorist, is another man's Freedom-Fighter). I even blogged usiing the DSL computer terminal at Magy Hotel in Cairo/Egypt.. no charge! See: [ you can see the Internet terminal in those pics ] I even blogged from the house I stayed in Salloum: [ scroll down for entry "Raining on Mar 27 (morning), what !?" ] & the condo @Marsa Matrouh: [ scroll down for entry "Blogging from Marsa-Matrouh" ] The above 2 places were down with dialup connection.
