I’ve taken to using Tomboy again recently and I realize how nice it is to do so. It’s as if I have a wiki made out of sticky notes. But to show you how nifty it is, I realized that it has potential use for keeping recipes.
This is what I started doing with Tomboy:
I made a notebook (a group of notes) called “Recipes”. To make your own notebook just click on the Tomboy icon on the panel and you have an option to do that.
After making a notebook, I made notes. My notes were basically recipes so those had ingredients and instructions. I made the main ingredient into wiki links by selecting the particular words and selecting “Link” from the menu.
By making that particular word into a link, Tomboy gave it a new note and on that note, I wrote the wiki names/note names of the […]

This is my first time to try out LXDE. I am curious about it and there are certain things that I am glad are in LXDE. For one thing, Alt+F2 also pops up a run dialog box so I could type the name of the application I want to run. There are even suggestions as to what I could run when I typed the first how many letters of the application’s name.
Other familiar keyboard shortcuts which I was able to use in LXDE:
Alt+Tab to switch between apps within a workspace
Ctrl-L in PCMan to go to the line where you could put the path of the directory you’d like to view
Ctrl+Alt+(Left/Right) lets you move from one workspace to another, in the direction of your choice
There might be others but I don’t know yet ^^; Sorry.
Those who are used to having Windows XP/98/whatever would probably find the menu […]

I first found out about Laconica, the AGPL micro-blogging system created by Evan Prodromou, when I discovered identi.ca about a day or so after it was opened to the public.
I considered installing it, but I held off for a bit until I learned more about it and its development.
In the end, the federated nature of Laconica which allows users to send notices across the various installations on the Internet was the deciding factor for me to install it because I have a preference for running things from my own site instead of relying on a third party site when possible in order to minimize the need to register and share my information with them (e.g., OpenID, etc.)
The installation and configuration was fairly easy and I haven’t had any issues aside from having to modify the rewrite rules in the .htaccess file slightly to get the “fancy” URLs to work correctly […]

Google Co-founder Sergey Brin says the new Chrome Web browser is not the Web operating system many people see it as, but acknowledges it will get more robust through the open source community under the Chromium project. Microsoft and other search engines and Web services providers must be wary about this evolution in application development. Google may be treading lightly with Chrome now, but the browser, combined with Google’s Search and Apps can end up being a big threat to Microsoft’s Windows market share. - Despite attempts by reporters to goad Google into spiking Microsoft, Google co-founder Sergey Brin denied that Google views its new Chrome browser as an operating system for Web applications.
quot;I would not call Chrome the operating system of Web apps, quot; Brin said after a demo of Chrome Se…
