Please someone set things straight on the Linux port of Google Chrome.
Maybe I'm completely out to lunch on this, but my impression was that Codeweaver's port of Google Chrome (using the Chromium project) is really just a demo of what they can do, and not THE Linux version of Chrome.
I have used the Codeweavers port [...]

Myself and a couple of other guys were getting ready to leave work yesterday at about 5:20pm. I had heard some passing firetruck sirens, but like just about everyone else, you just ignore them. But when I went out to my car, I saw the air ambulance circling overhead. It turns out a Ford Escort [...]

Ever since this post on September 1st, it seems Merlin Mann and his 43Folders have really decided to get their shit together. It's pretty inspiring stuff which is distinctly different than something like Lifehacker which, to my mind, seems to be heavily diluted lately in the interest of growth and at the expense of value.
Anyway, [...]

 
I've actually had some good fortune as of late. I've been able to contribute a little in the way of graphic design to a couple of things I'm into.
Very recently (ie. two days ago), the very awesome Dave Yates (of Lottalinuxlinks podcast fame) floated the idea of a 'planet' site to aggregate linux podcasters' blogs [...]

So out of all the swirling rumours about how the Jerry Seinfeld/Bill Gates commercials failed miserably and the subsequent denials (I thought the first two ads were both very funny,  maybe not supremely clever, but interest-generating to be sure), we now see the second wave. This time a rather poignant claim that "I'm a PC [...]

About a week ago, one of our faithful screencast viewers zombiebrainz had a great idea and created a Flickr group as a place for people to post their inkscape work. This was done so that people could show off what they were working on with or without the help of our screencasts.
It's turning out to [...]

Back on May 12, 2006 I posted about Spore, and how much I wanted it. Now that it's finally out I'm a little unsure about what I'm going to do.
I no longer run a dual boot Ubuntu/XP system. I do have an XP image inside of VMWare, but running a modern game inside of VMWare [...]

I would like to give some well-thought out excuse as to why I hadn't yet upgraded this blog from Wordpress 2.5 - "waiting for confirmation of stability" comes to mind.. But er.. no. I was just lazy. 
So today I finally upgraded to 2.6.2. Again I mistakenly forgot to copy one folder over (the wp-includes) folder [...]

So it seems quite a few people don't like the new Microsoft commercial starring Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates. I guess I'm in the minority on this one.
Now I'm no Microsoft fan. I don't really think too much of Vista mostly because I feel strongly that Linux is the way forward. Technically, there is something [...]

I find the naming of Google's new open source "Chrome" web browser to be ill-fitting to say the least. I dunno about you, but I associate "chrome" with shiny parts that do little to make things go faster or better - bling for bling's sake and little more.
Thankfully, and perhaps unsurprisingly, Google have gone the [...]
