Linux; When Are You Going Mobile?

Written on Feb 15, 09 4:36 am | Technology | 3 comments | 0 | 0

Okay, this is the thing; I am an smartphone and computer enthusiast, and I just can't believe no one has bothered to port Linux to an smartphone or any other portable device (excluding the Linux Kernels for videogame consoles and others like that).

Linux has the potential of creating an smartphone that can be extra powerful, then why isn't its community working on that? I mean, Windows has had it's Windows Mobile OS for Smartphones for a long time now. I have used an HP iPaq from the 6500 series for a long time, and Windows Mobile OS is wonderful. It is stable, has many developers making applications for it constantly, it has a good user interface, and everything.

Then pretty recently (less than a week ago) I got an iPhone 3G with 16 GBs of memory and it is already full of applications. The iPhone uses this OS called iPhone OS (duh). With this OS you can put all sort of applications to you

Children An The Internet: They Now Have Their Own Browser...

Written on Jan 11, 09 9:04 am | Web Development | 1 comment | 0 | 0

I was browsing a forum dedicated to PHP Developers, and in the miscellaneous section, they posted this: Kidoz Browser.

Interesting enough, some people were saying that it would present against the major browsers of the internet... But after reading a while, I learned that this browser is just for kids.

Some of it's features are:

Children do not need to know how to write or how to read.
The browser blocks links and scripts that could mislead the child to sites that are not approved. What do they mean with "approved" I have no idea if the guys that made this browser are controlling the link, or if it has parental filters.
Kids can browse an infinite amount of videos, games, and whatnot.

My opinion? I honestly don't know what to say :P. It looks like something interesting, but I prefer to keep kids away of computers until they are a bit older. I mean, this browser seems like it is for chil

Mamma Mia! The Movie.

Written on Jan 11, 09 8:42 am | Movies | 0 comments | 0 | 0

Okay, I watched this movie last week, though for some reason, the "obsession" for this movie just started to go in my blood today. It is kind of late, but it doesn't matter. It was an awesome movie (it isn't even of a genre I like), and I can't believe how I came to love this movie a week later after I watched it.
This movie is based on the original Mamma Mia! musical that is known in the whole globe. It also has the original songs from the musical, that means that all the songs are from Abba.

Now, ironically enough, I used to hate ABBA. That was until I saw the ballet presentation of my cousin, in which they played the songs "Dancing Queen" and "Mamma Mia". That day, I liked those two songs too much, and managed to put my hands on them. Now last week I purchased this movie because Pierce Brosnan is one of my favorite life actors. I grew up with his 007 movies, and have a lot of respect fo

I Hate Irresponsible People!

Written on Dec 15, 08 10:59 pm | Other | 2 comments | 0 | 0

Gosh! Why can't any average worker on my city have the DECENCY of getting a job done when you give them a call!? Everytime I ask for help to these people (and they know they are getting paid), they either never come to my house like I ask them to, they are never in their freaking offices when you tell them you will be there at a certain time, or they don't get the job right.

A few weeks ago, I dissarmed my computer and build it again. I did that to clean the computer pieces. Ever since I did that, I have been facing a problem every time I try to do a certain something. So I went ahead on the internet to a whole array of websites to search for help. Good people there, tried to help me, offered solutions, and everything. I did the research for three weeks on my computer problem, and since I couldn't locate the problem, I decided to head out to the city and look for someone that could help m

How To Code Well For IE Using Only Firefox As A Browser.

Written on Dec 1, 08 7:05 am | Web Development | 4 comments | 0 | 0

Normally, I download a lot of addons for Firefox so I can work on my websites easy and efficiently. The problem with this tools is that they are only for Firefox and I still have to keep IE open to preview my web pages.

For the looks of it, those days are long gone. I found this nifty tool that let's you preview a webpage on Firefox like it was IE!

I haven't used this tool myself, but it looks pretty cool. I mean, imagine having Internet Explorer integrated on Firefox without having to switch applications? Sounds pretty cool, I will sure download this pluggin.

"What's Up With The World Nowadays!!"... Is That Really The Case?

Written on Dec 1, 08 2:11 am | Musings/Thoughts | 6 comments | 0 | 0

The first thing most people do when they hear that a woman has been dismembered alive is close their hands doing a punch and scream something like "what's up with this messed up world!!".

Nowadays, hearing about children abuse, shootings, deaths, or other horrible things, is pretty common, and a lot of people simply say that the world is worse than it used to be before.

However, a lot of people are not considering the fact that they are hearing about. They seem to ignore that the mass media has been increasing a lot in the past years. We all hear awful stuff in a normal morning radio, or by switching to random channels on the TV, or by visiting Loungin'. The mass media is just reporting everything that happens. This issues are starting to see the light AT LAST. Maybe worse things have happened that were never reported to the media. Maybe the fact that now the mass media reports this issues

Videogames Are Not So Cool; Hope It's My Age.

Written on Nov 29, 08 8:23 pm | Wii DS | 5 comments | 0 | 0

I remember back in the day (when I was like 6 - 9), Videogames were really something really cool for me. I could spend hours playing Videogames, all kind of games, but now, it seems that they are not so cool anymore. Are they getting repetitive? Probably. Is it my age? Most likely.

These two factors (they are getting repetitive and I'm getting older) are affecting the way I view videogames this days.

Back in the days when the almighty N64 was around, I used to find the first Mario Party incredibly amusing. All kind of mini games, plus the graphics were so great for it's time. I used to play that game almost every day unlocking all the minigames, items, and whatnot. The controllers where not interactive in any way, it was just to press a few buttons and that was about it. Now? We have the newest Mario Party game, 8 for the Wii. Heck, I remember when I purchased that game, I was saying "oh b
