Apple – Support – GarageBand – Recording Your Podcast

Apple has a step by step (kinda, sorta, if you are any kind of geek that is) guide to podcasting. Interesting. They pushing GarageBand as a recording/mixing enviroment, which makes mucho sense to me. Gonna have to try it out.

Thanks for the link Dave!

Alfresco Airs Open Source ECM

Interesting article. Was going to go to the site and see what all the fuss is about but no link. A quick google found it at http://www.alfresco.org/.

This is the second news article I have hit today without a link back to the companies website. This is POOR work. From the writer to the editor. Whoever failed to include or if for some reason removed the link should have to visit “Daddy” Howard Hyatt (reference is toward the bottom of the article). 🙁

Tectonic — Linux and open source news

Review of Peanut Linux. I have used this distro in the past but wasn’t able to take the time needed to get it fully operational on the machine I had at the time. Haven’t tried it lately. Should give it a try again. I’ve got an old Dell laptop that I need to put a distro on. Will take a few and download it and see how it does.

Techdirt:Microsoft Says: Our Way Or The Spam Folder

Yet another reason to NEVER use a Microsoft product. But if you’ve got to use it (work or s.o. or whatever reason) then get a gmail or yahoo or other online account to allow you to get all of your mail! AOHell tried that and may be still doing it but I try to have nothing to do with that most obtrusive service. I only know 2 folks that still use it and both now have gmail accounts.

NewsForge | OpenOffice.org Writer vs. Microsoft Word

NewsForge | OpenOffice.org Writer vs. Microsoft Word
Several years ago I concluded “Opening Up to OpenOffice.org” by saying, “OOo Writer outperforms Microsoft Word in almost every way.” With the release of the version 2.0 beta, that statement is truer than ever. At its worst, OOo Writer is an adequate alternative for Microsoft Word. Most of the time, it is a superior one. And the greater your need for page design features or long document handling, the greater that superiority becomes.

After using OO on 3 different platforms and several more OS’s over several years I have to agree. The styles take a bit of getting use to but in the long run are much easier to use in OO. And importing works much better in later versions. NeoOfficeJis branch for the Mac and what I use most. Just got the latest update yesterday. Nice!

Petabyte Storage

50 KW Petabyte Storage solution.

The Internet Archive has received delivery of a 600 system, 2500 drive storage system based on Via mini-ITX motherboards running Debian or Fedora Linux.

Now, if they can only port Searchlight to this thing so they can FIND what I’m looking for on it…….

Ravenous

Ravenous
Ravenous is full featured web server written in Java. It allows you to write dynamic pages in Java without the need to read stacks of books before you get started… pure javalicous programming for your web projects!

This is interesting! I watched the tutorials and would have to say if it scales at all well it could be a winner! The ease with which a data base is built and controlled is amazing. Gonna have to try it out. Will find out if it will work on one of the pclinux machines.

got 2 up and going right now. One for serving music and the other for a webserver. 2 20 gig hds in each. one for os one for data. may try to set up as raid instead with mirror images on each.

more in a later post.

Articles – Pipes and filters
I still remember the day, many years ago, when a wise old programmer looked over my shoulder and said, “Ah, Grasshopper, you need a pipe!” and so set me on the path to true enlightenment.

Looks interesting. Need to add a new category – programming.

Techdirt:People Don’t Like Going To The Movies Any More

And a few of them like me just quit going to the movies as they quit buying music to vote with the only voice we have left. They quit treating us like criminals and maybe they won’t lose more customers. But I really don’t think they’re smart enough to figure that out.
