Luxagraf is created with a lot of tools loosely joined. Most of these tools are free software that you can use and modify as you see fit. Without these tools I wouldn't be able to do this -- many thanks to the people who created and maintain them. + +[GeoDjango framework][geo] -- behind the scenes this handles a few things, like geographic queries and putting everything on a map. If you have any interest in working with geodata, this is hands down the best geodata tool I've ever used. + +[Python][py] -- GeoDjango of course depends on Python, which in turn runs on my Linux server hosted by Digital Ocean. + +[OpenStreetMap][osm] -- I use openstreet map data for all the maps on this site. OpenStreetMap is like the Wikipedia of maps, except that it isn't wrong half the time. Whenever I feel skeptical about the so-called collective power of people on the internet, I remember OpenStreetMap and feel a little better. + +[Leaflet.js][leaf] -- This is the JavaScript Library that makes it really easy to load all the pretty maps you see on luxagraf. The map tiles themselves were developed by a company call ESRI. + +[Vim][vim] -- The editor I used to type up most things, including these words, right now. + +The site validates as HTML5 and uses something the kids call responsive web design. I may or may not have written an entire [book on responsive web design](http://longhandpixels.net/books/responsive-web-design). Luxagraf should work in every web browser. If you have trouble, or see something that just doesn't seem right, please [let me know](/contact). + +## Photography + +Currently photos are taken with a Panasonic GF1. In the past I have used a Panasonic LX2 and a Canon S45. Minimal processing is done with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop. The [photo gallery layout][gal] was inspired by the lovely (and now defunct) [Pictory][pic] photo showcase.

It's shame that got lost somewhere along the way. I think it's still an awesome way to discover new sites.

I refuse to visit sites that stoop to *Top X about Y* headlines and I don't really care who paid for you to go visit Cancun and *wasn't the food at the resort just delightful*?

If my math is right, Wade has been traveling continuously for over 15 years now. There is not much about travel that he has not figured out. + +[Expert Vagabond](http://expertvagabond.com/) -- Most travel blogs are utter crap, this one is not. Mathew is a talented photographer, good writer and has something all too rare in traveler's these days -- a sense of adventure. + + + +[Adventure Journal](http://www.adventure-journal.com/) -- One of two magazine-style travel sites I follow. As with anything collaborative it's hit or miss, but there are some great essays for travelers, naturalists and adventurers. + +### +http://ryantatar.com/tearsheets +http://shakasandsinglefins.com/post/59875944801/in-print-desillusion-magazine-mavericks diff --git a/_pages/contact.txt b/_pages/contact.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..b760c54 --- /dev/null +++ b/_pages/contact.txt @@ -0,0 +1,27 @@ +--- +title: Contact Luxagraf +slug: /contact +meta_description: 'How to get in touch with me.' +include_in_sitemap: True +template: page +--- + +I'd love to hear what you think about the posts on luxagraf.
