Identi.ca, the free software micro-blogging platform

Eric Mesa | August 27, 2008

Another micro-blogging post?  What’s going on here?  Well, when I first did my micro-blogging post, Identi.ca had just gone public and I didn’t think there was a reason to join yet another micro-blogging service.  But two things came together to convince me to check out Identi.ca.  First of all, I’ve overcome my reluctance to using [...]

Review: openSuse 11.0 (and KDE 4)

Eric Mesa | August 27, 2008

I’ve never used Suse or openSuse.  As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve been a “loyal” Fedora user since Fedora Core 1 and I have Ubuntu on my laptop since it had awesome laptop support.  I even got some Suse CDs as a prize for the Letter of the Month from Linux Format magazine.  However, I never [...]

Micro-blogging: One Month Later

Eric Mesa | August 24, 2008

It’s been about a month since I signed up for a bunch of micro-blogging websites. So what do I think after about a month? Let me start off with Twitter.

In my first look at the micro-blogs I had some pretty good feelings about Twitter. That has basically carried over for the past [...]

Eric Mesa | August 23, 2008

Well, the latest craze to hit the Linux bloggers is talking about Empathy.  Everyone is talking about it.  It’s apparently going to be in the next version of Gnome and Ubuntu is considering replacing Pidgin with Empathy for the next release.  First of all, depending on how much work is done on Empathy between now [...]

64 Studio Review

Eric Mesa | August 21, 2008

Many people know the mantra – if you are a gamer or office worker, you use the OS from Redmond.  If you are a creative person such as a musician, video editor, etc you use a Mac.  Geeks use Linux.  But more and more people are moving away from Windows and seeking either Macs or [...]

The Excuses Companies come up with are often so irrational!

The voting machine companies are getting on my last nerve.  Randall helps me let some steam out.

Imagine if your date was wearing THIS!

Eric Mesa | August 1, 2008

Be sure to visit xkcd to read the tool tip, it’s extra hilarious.

I think Randall’s back in form after some especially abstract comics.
