Nokia brings Star Wars to mobiles. So Conor, when will you buy?
Nokia to use Opera browser on latest mobiles – when will we get Mozilla on there? hehe..
Double-decker bus joins fight against crime
Belgian PM in speeding row – a fine example to set..
Voidstar has some good stuff. Why isn’t Broadband happening in the UK? is one essay I liked. The situation is a lot worse in Ireland though 🙁
Bruce responds to Mundie – I’ve had this page open for the past 24 hours (hehe.. Galeon *is* stable) and I’ve been meaning to read it but..
That’s the problem with tabs and reliable software. I open so many windows and mean to read it all but I never get around to reading each article I come across. It’s sort of like reading books as I think I covered a few weeks ago.
BTW – that last paragraph was tongue in cheek if you hadn’t noticed!
Google haven’t indexed my site in a while.
Daypop are much better at keeping up-to-date here.
Financial concerns at Linux Mandrake – I use Mandrake Linux at home, I’m joining their club.
I have a Fujifilm Finepix 1300 digital camera. This morning I did a Google search for some help getting it working in Red Hat Linux 7.2. I had it working with a Linux 2.2.x kernel but things changed in 2.4 so I needed help. Here’s some useful links:
Commentry on Olympus Brio and Linux
gPhoto – a library for accessing USB and serial digital cameras. The Kompany produced a Kio slave for KDE that uses this library. Browse through the files on your camera in Konqueror!
Linux hot-plugging – Its goal is letting you plug in new devices and use them immediately.

I was just spammed. Nothing new there, but this was from a charity. You’ve probably heard of them, Concern. They are a worth while cause, heck, I even fasted for 24 hours for them a few years ago but this was the 3rd spam I got off them so off to Spamcop I go and report the mail. I’m feeling slightly guilty, but I know I never signed up to any of their mailings.
I couldn’t remember the spamcop URL so I did a google search and came across a few interesting titbits.
I came across an unsettling weblog here. She moved her blog elsewhere. The page is brighter but the background picture she used speaks volumes.
Thank you Rachel for pointing at wunderground.com. Cork City, where I live is covered by them. They also linked to a tourist page on Cork. There’s some nice pictures of Cork here, and lots of info too!
Hehe. Kathy Collins visited Blarney Castle. Myself and Martina went there last year and she kissed the stone, I did it years ago so I declined this time! On the way out we saw something unusual.. A guy in the bushes doing something with his hand that I really shouldn’t describe here.. The two of us were suitably shocked. Thankfully, the middle-aged American tourists behind us didn’t see him. “Yes, ambulance please, I have a man here who can’t breathe after seeing…” *gulp*
Just got a long email from Martina’s friend Caitriona. She’s in New Zealand, moving on to Australia, and then on to Tokyo while the World Cup is on. Several people are upset because she has no interest in soccer!
Virtual PC 5.0.2: Vroom Sputter Sputter Vroooooogasp! – it [OS X] allows you to run native Unix programs, Classic and native Mac OS program (9 and X, and some programs dating back 10 years!), and with VPC, any Windows or Intel-based OS’s and programs. Why get a PC with one OS when you could get several with OS X?
Reiter – another wireless weblog.
I found this wireless product listing on the Scan website last night. I may buy something on Monday. There’s an effort to get a wireless lan in Cork running but it’s slow going.

KRSS didn’t work. It reported a bug reading a config file. I’ll mail the author in the morning. I’m just looking at Ampheta Desk now.
