Test post to using gnome-blog. BloGTK is having some problems with my Plone blog tool (it’s really the blog tools problem, but still, I’m stuck for now). Hopefully, this li’l applet guy will help me keep my blog up to date better, while I sync up my blogger tool and my blogging tool…

I am absolutely amazed by George W. Bush. I may not like my President, but I can say one thing after

Cool.

Neat…and thought-provoking: A life where TiVo has always existed. Thanks for the link, Ross!

Oh, and since we’re beebopping about the magnatune blog, check out this conversation, wherein a major label executive takes issue with the Magnatune “We Are Not Evil” slogan. LOL!

Check out the Nostromo Game Controller n52 at Tom’s Hardware. At MSRP of $39.99, this has definite wearable possibilities as a chording keyboard (if we can figure out how to program it on Linux, of course).
