I actually have very little to say but thought I'd make an effort to make more regular blogs. We are currently in Prague on what feels like a very flying visit. We only got here on Tuesday night and we're off again tomorrow to Heidelberg. Prague has been fantastic, the weather has picked up again and we've had to delve deep for the suncream thats been buried at the bottom of Dani's bag since our tour of Scandanavia!

Still no pictures I'm afraid, they're certainly starting to stack up and we shall endeavour to do something about it (soon(ish))! On the off chance that Mike, whom we caught the bus here from Berlin with, and spent the day with today checks . . . . welcome to mybigadventures.com! Please feel free to spread the word . . . and that goes for the rest of you too! Right thats all for now, cheerio ta ta!!

we are in Interlaken we have 24 seconds internet left and counting. FIN

After finally adding the forgotten details page, it got me thinking about what else to improve. I started to look at the social networking side of things. There's been a few facebook sharing links around on the site for a while, but there's always been issues with them displaying correctly. Facebook uses a system called open graph which provides a bit of structure to the content you share. The open graph system relies on meta data on the website - for those that don't know, meta data is basically data about data. The meta data in this case, provides additional information about the thing you are trying to share. So after a bit of an update and lots of checking on the facebook scraper, blog posts and photo albums can now be shared from the site, and should provide some contextual information related to where you are clicking the share button. It's certainly not perfect right now, but it works! To complement this wonderful new sharing functionality I've also added some fancy new buttons with a little help from sharingbuttons.io/. That's about all for now, in the mean time, go mad, share something!
