I think i can do just about everything with one.. compile, develop, …errr wait.. does it have a USB port? how about bluetooth?
Yeah, i know i can do everything i need on it.. just need to bump up that ram from 512 meg to 2 gig.

gOS

Pretty sweet, a slimmed down version of linux with google desktop and functionality integrated. The deigners went a long way to make the interface look and feel good… only thing they didn’t really think about was… geeks want a commandline too :-)… a pain in the ass to get one.. had to go to the knowledge base and search on it since there was nothing in the menu’s to “shell out”
I have the live cd i ran in a VM .. i like it and hope to use it one day… maybe on a subnotebook…

Visualization
February 1st, 2008 | Published in General, Tech
I have been digging through tons of raw data at work, thousands and thousands of lines of raw uncategorized mess. I also have been playing with a bunch of XML and SVG. Man i love SVG, makes me have all kinds of cool ideas.. real sweet stuff. Wish i had the time.
Anyway, this is what my mind was thinking today, as created by graphviz.
The “Dot” file which is the data for the above image…
The coolest thig is that you can represent data as a graphic.. and with SVG you can link parts of the graphic with a web site or a file or another graphic.. the possibilities are endless for automating the visualization of large large piles of crappy data.
You know, Humanize it a bit.
