It seems using drafts is useless for news related stuff 🙂 But anyhow, in case you didn’t know yet: skype goes ebay . I forgot Skype’s founders are the creators of KaZaA. Nice trivium 😉

Opera..?!
Putting all drafts from the past days aside: Opera is from now on FREE software!!!! :party: No more ads, no more license keys (Press Release). Next step..? 😉
Open source photo management
While looking at a Gtk+ 2.8 release announcement, I ‘discovered’ an app to manage your digital photographs. But then I remembered we already have digiKam :D. Still I’m surprised at the progress that has been made in the last year. I remember looking for such an app, ‘Adobe PhotoAlbum alternative’, some time ago, and I didn’t find anything decent back then.
Software Freedom Day

CHI

Flashing the desktop
Today I discovered there finally is a platform-independent version of vnc2swf!! Vnc2swf is a tool which enables one to capture (part of) the desktop directly into an SWF file through a VNC server.
Formerly, it was a linux-only tool written in C, but now it’s rewritten in Python using SDL as a back-end for viewing. It is also hosted on SourceForge now.
