Just Fun Stuff – LUG Meeting
Feb 19
Well, it’s a short post. Since I was around the area and was more or less free during the time, I attended a short meeting with a local Linux Users Group at the G2iX Techbar, IT Park, Cebu City, of which I am a member. There was basically a short talk on Liferay, an Open [...]
There’s an interesting writeup by Gabriel Forster in his blog on how he implemented linux on the Christian School that he was teaching in.
Apparently, Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, apparently caved in and bought a Nexus One last week, as he stated in his blog.

The android code in the linux kernel tree was deleted. Why was it deleted? Greg Kroah-Hartman in his blog stated in a nutshell that: In short, no one cared about the code, so [...]

Unfortunately, as work went more demanding, I [...]
I’ve been thinking. I think there’s a small window of opportunity here. Mainly because since I’m researching on some things, and I’ve got a little spare time on my hands, why not make a Chromium Build?

Hi there folks. As you may all know, Google released source code for it’s much ballyhooed OS, named after it’s popular browser named Chrome. I’ve been able to run a vmware image in VirtualBox and although I know it’s just a technical preview of the OS, I can say it’s pretty zippy (good for a [...]
A few days ago, my wife running Windows XP on the HP laptop I gave her a few years ago innocently clicked on one of those Facebook links posted on her wall “supposedly” coming from her friend talking about a cool video link. What she didn’t know was that the link she clicked upon inadvertently [...]
I’ve been reading a lot about Google’s flagship OS lately, and if one is to believe all the hype, it will definitely give microsoft a run for it’s money.
