Org-mode and holidays
Org-mode has a nice option which allows you to show week-end days in a different color in your agenda. That means that Saturday and Sunday (when I do not work) are fontified with org-agenda-date-weekend.
Google Maps for Emacs: moving, caching and home
Last week, I worked on my Google Maps for Emacs extension. I’ve introduced a new format handling for locations which include the longitude and latitude. The initial format was just a string describing the location, which was obviously too limited.

Recent Emacs versions have a wonderful capacity to hide the mouse pointer as soon as you type and insert characters in a buffer. This is controlled by the `make-pointer-invisible’ variable, which is set to t by default.

M-x google-maps
Since I have started to use Org-mode, I though it was missing something to have appointment locations on a map. Of course, it’s easy to get a LOCATION property from an entry, and then browse-url on Google Maps.
