Here’s a neat little feature of Google Maps that most people don’t know about.
While you probably have figured out the satellite view and the real-time traffic overlay features, there’s also another neat little feature that lets you discover all the videos uploaded to YouTube, photos and webcams that are geocoded to different locations while you are viewing any section of Google Maps.
Whenever you upload videos and photos, more and more sites like Picasa for photos and YouTube for videos are letting you tag the media files with actual geographic locations. Google is taking this geo data and integrating it with their map data just for you.
Get ready — On Thursday September 29th at 7:30pm, the Livingston Library will present “Mark Twain’s Last Stand.”
Perfomer Alan Kitty combines Twain’s wit and insight about the human condition in a show filled with socially charged humor. Mr. Kitty’s impersonation as a posthumous Twain explores the parallels between his century and ours. Witty, humorous and topical!
Livingston township is using a system called SWIFT911 for high speed notification of town residents of urgent news. The key feature of the system is the capability of delivering pre-recorded messages to the entire community via telephone, cell phone, email and text messaging.
This system will be used by more municipal departments now, including:
the Tax Department, for property tax notifications;
the Water Department, for water maintenance and outage notifications;
Engineering, for messages about road construction on Township roadways; and
the Police Department will continue to utilize it for emergencies.
The Swift911 system uses a publicly available list of phone numbers for both residents and businesses.
BUT if you’re number is NOT listed in the telephone book, your number is probably not in the system.
Residents and businesses can add or remove their phone numbers from the system online by visiting www.livingstonnj.org or by clicking on the Swift911 icon above to get to the township website page with details. The service can also add cell phones numbers and e-mail addresses.
Livingston Soccer just announced that Grade 1-12 Rosters were distributed and have been posted on their website. You can also reach out to your child’s grade coordinator (also on website).
Soccer participants registered after August 15th will be placed on a roster shortly (for grades 1 and 2), and possibly not until after the first game for grades 3-12.
