Peng’s links for Friday, 10 October

Posted by Peng on 10 October 2008

I’m going to have to make this one a little quick with it being Friday afternoon and a certain game is already in progress. I would have held off until tomorrow but I’ve already got a task added that will have me running around more than I realized I would be.

LinuxDevices.com: Mobile Firefox ready for download. It’s still a testing build, with the final due in “a few weeks.” There are some nice features for mobile users that I was wondering about. Stefano Forenza: Idiotic Apple. Another cross post from the Ubuntu Weblogs, but Apple has received a patent for their dock. AWN users probably wonder what this means for our favorite dock, but the AWN team has also posted a link to the response from the AWN devs. Mark Shuttleworth: It’s a solvency problem, not a liquidity problem. The founder of Ubuntu looks at the current economic crisis, which is welcome seeing how he has enough money to form a global company whose primary purpose [may be | is] to promote the use of free and open source software. I especially like his thoughts on executive compensation, which I think should be posted (or linked to) everywhere. Dave Murphy: 24 Hours with Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex). I haven’t had a chance to check Ubuntu Intrepid’s 1st beta yet, but Dave tells the pluses and minuses he found in his first day of working with it. Heinrick Geman: BrowserSpy moved. Heinrik’s tool for seeing how much info your browser is revealing about you and your computer got it’s own website. I was surprised at how much info my browser was revealing, even under Linux. I did notice that the bandwidth tests crashed Firefox 3.0.3/Linux every time I tried it, but that may be a Flash issue rather than a Mozilla issue.

I’m still holding on to that program update news until I can verify that the bug I found is squashed. I’ll try to post something this weekend, but if not I’ll see you guys Monday. Have a great weekend, y’all.

GO DODGERS!
