with John Evans

‘Johnny boy’s Walkabout Blog’ is a bushwalking hobby web log hosted by the PCUG. It is maintained by member John Evans, a semi-retired baby boomer with a little spare time to indulge his passions.

“We all know that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing” explains John, “and I have a double portion. Twenty-eight years in Federal Government IT and four years wandering around in the bush equip me most inadequately in both fields, but I do have fun.” Objects such as text, photos, video, sound, digital map segments and GPS tracks are presented using a number of simple tools (some of which are freeware), via techniques such as photo thumbnails, podcasting and Google Earth files.

So if you’re a technophile, come along and see some views of the high hills of the ACT and, perhaps, pick up some additional blogging techniques. And if you’re a bushwalker, come along and see how you can share your experiences with family and friends – fully under your control and advertisement free.
