Things I love about the N900

Other than the fact that it supports multi tasking, and the more geeky stuff, like the fact that it has got a shell…

- If a call comes in, I can turn it face down to silence it.
- It has Gnupg encryption by default.
- It has Pidgin, thus MSN, Facebook chat, etc.
- The wireless works better than my laptop.
- It is beautiful…
- It has an FM transmitter, making it super easy to listen to music in the car.
- more to come…

Things I miss:
- Can’t get last.fm scrobbling to work.
- No MMS yet (but it’s being worked on)

This is an n900 test

Just checking out a blog post writing app on my Nokia N900. The phone is incredible!

Some invites to Google Wave. Want one?

Google increased the number of invites. Do you want one? Ask me in the comments, and be convincing

How do I deal with information? — A non-tech Zeitgeist background

Due to various circumstances, it has been way too long without a blog post about the hackfest I was lucky enough to be able to attend, thanks to Seif and the super nice people at the GNOME Foundation who sponsored me. There were some super talented people there, and I got to see first hand the skills of these guys.

During the hackfest I wrote up the start of an overview of what Zeitgeist and related software will do for the user, from a non technical point of view. That document is still a work in progress, but I decided to post the first part.
