Ari Jaaksi’s Blog

Thursday, December 14th, 2006

Ari Jaaksi of maemo.org and Nokia wrote an interesting blog entry yesterday, I thought I’d share with you who don’t read planet maemo..
“I’d like a true operating system (Linux) and advanced middleware (GTK, Gnome, DBUS, ….) power new exciting connected mobile devices. I want to use the devices and their software as innovation platforms and […]

Links for today

Wednesday, November 29th, 2006

I love del.icio.us. Seriously. Try searching google for “free fonts” and you get the same crap on every “10000000000000000000+1 free fonts!!!” -site. They all suck.
Try the same on del.icio.us: This and this. Smooch!

Of course, they are not much use until the metaweblog API in blogs supports them, but this is a start!

Maemo.org webdesign and free tools

Friday, October 27th, 2006

We’ve been preparing a revamp of the maemo.org website conglomerate using Midgard CMS, the same system that’s been considered for the upcoming Gnome.org revamp. In Maemo there’s quite similar situation - we wish to replace several traditional web services (wiki, blogs, static content, project pages, software catalog etc) with one setup that hopefully works out […]

FL370 - 37000 feet in the sky.

Tuesday, October 10th, 2006

Internet and Lufthansa free promotion offer. Sweet. Thanks everyone for a very interesting Summit. I am on my way back home, somewhere above the UK I would guess. The 770 really works fine for the copious legroom and space of *ahem* less than first class
Does anyone know a flight tracking service one could […]

Geographic fun everyone!

We’re making nice progress in GeoClue in GnomeSummit. Lots of people got interested in the idea, and a lot of lively brainstorming and excitement: “So I want to make GWeather show your current weather automatically, based on your location!” etc.. Awesome!

Happy Hackers brainstorming GeoClue
One of our projects is to have our hacker community more location […]

Geotagging blog posts

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

Does anyone know if there is a way to add geotags into blog posts via any of the weblog API’s?
Another thing that we need to figure out is how to add those tags into blog RSS feeds. The goal is to get Planet to become aware of the location of each post, so we can […]

Free software on different platforms

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

J5’s post about how Gnome is about the people and their ideas made me again think about the same thing I’ve been pondering lately.
Free software is being used on new platforms: handheld tablets and other embedded systems etc.. Many times this requires a rewrite of at least the user interface parts, because a desktop is […]
