  1. I'm really looking forward to reviewing the Dell Mini 10v with the Ubuntu Moblin Remix. Scheduled for delivery Oct. 9. :-)
  2. My score for the week: 4 articles on the front page of digg, 1 on Slashdot. Artificially inflated sense of self importance is kicking in.
  3. @timtrueman: it looks like a really nifty service. Is there an API for it yet?
  4. @jdub: haha it was me. I ran out of foot puns. :-)
  5. @funkatron: yes.
  6. It is beautiful: http://is.gd/3DM90 Thank you Google, for refusing to condone defective browsers. This is how the web should work.
  7. It seems kind of weird that GTK+ labels now support link markup but regular Pango layouts do not. What's up with that?
  8. Facebook randomly changed the output of their API again, breaking Gwibber's Facebook support the day before Ubuntu beta freeze.
  9. Does anybody know why urllib2.urlopen sometimes randomly hangs and refuses to respect the timeout parameter? *STAB* *STAB* *STAB*
  10. I'm losing patience with Python's crappy libraries, particularly urllib2. Python: dead batteries included.
  11. Cops take a break from drug raid to play suspect's Wii: http://is.gd/3BNlA Can't win the war on drugs, but they can win Wii Bowling.
  12. @toshok: espresso machines are totally worth the investment. I have one from Saeco that's really nice.
  13. Leaked AT&T; roadmap shows LG Monoco in Nov 2009: http://is.gd/3vUej Rumored specs are crazy: http://is.gd/3vU8v Seems too early for WinMo 7.
  14. @bear: Maybe that's just Adobe's solution to all of the nasty Flash vulnerabilities that have been showing up lately. ;-)
  15. @kenvandine: I just committed the fix to make the menu items show up. Your turn! :-)
  16. @kenvandine & @sandyarmstrong: yean, I just discovered gtk_image_menu_item_set_always_show_image. Wish I had known about this earlier.
  17. The linux community needs to realize that "how Apple does it" is not necessarily a valid basis for making sound UI decisions.
  18. @EricaJoy: Today's epic UI blunder is brought to you by the GNOME community: http://bit.ly/nQ40y
  19. I'm having a very hard time understanding how removing menu icons will improve usability: http://is.gd/3v2LY #GNOME
  20. Interesting article by @TechJournalist about Mozilla and crypto export regulations: http://is.gd/3qbyM Definitely an area that needs reform.
