Lake District Peaks in Google Earth

July8

I stumbled upon a handy site last night that contained a KML file (Google Earth's data format) containing 214 Lake District Peaks marked out in Google Earth. Unfortunately the titles and descriptions were the wrong way round for regular browsing, and a number of the titles were spelt incorrectly or wrongly capitalised. Luckily KML files are just a type of XML, so can be opened and edited using Notepad. After a bit of work the file looks much nicer and is far more useful for panning around looking at the peaks.

Download the Lake District Peaks KML file.

Incidentally if you are browsing round the Lake District in Google Earth, make sure to check out the amazing Gigapan layer, which contains brilliant 3d panoramas that can be zoomed in to very high resolutions.

Type the word that appears under the picture of a badger. Why?

These days spam bots are a problem for websites. They post crap in comments and ruin things for everybody. However asking them to perform tests such as identifying badgers stops them in their tracks, despite how easy it is for you.
