The YahooMap macro lets you display a Yahoo Map for any lattitude ot longitude. The arguments are

1. a name for the map, which should be unique within this page (i.e. if you need two maps on the same page, they should have distinct names)
2. the latitude of the center of the map
3. the longitude of the center of the map
4. the map width, in pixels
5. the map height, in pixels

To create this map, we write:

^do(YahooMap,testMap, 30.244047, -97.74175, 300, 200)

The macro ^do(googleBox)^ creates a google search box that searches a specific site.

The site to be searched is specified as the URL in /Configuration/google.

You can link to the amazon listing for any book if you know its ISBN number

^do(amazon,055380197X,Locked Rooms) gives you Locked Rooms.

^do(amazonCover,055380197X,Locked Rooms) fetches a small image of the cover, if one is available: see the example at right.

It's easy to fetch flickr photos for any tag, or a random selection from your personal flickr account. Just enter your account number in Configuration/flickr and use the ^do(flickr) macro:

You can also use the ^flickr_tag macro to retrieve the latest flickr images for any tag: ^do(flickr_tag,Paris,3) gets you some pictures of Paris.

The macro ^do(tag,theTag) marks a published note with the corresponding Technorati tag. For example,

^do(tag,Tinderbox)

will assign the Tinderbox tag to the page: [Tinderbox].

You can follow the tag link to see related pages elsewhere on the Web. (More information on Technorati tags)

The define macro lets you create handy dictionary links. ^do(define,epistle) gives you this: epistle*

You can easily change the macro to change the appearance of the definition if you don't like the asterisk.
