After the introduction of SpyMy.com, now comes LinuxFilter, a news website that uses the concept of news voting by the internet users.

The basic operation of this website is the same as digg.com in which users will decide which story will be published at the frontpage through a voting system. Though it is named “Linux”, LinuxFilter does accept other news category as well such as PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, Lua and various other topic which mostly related to computing and FOSS.

As for the uninitiated, you can participate by registering yourself in LinuxFilter website, and submit your news for users review. You can also help by reviewing other people’ news and rate it. The reviews and voting will determined if the story will be published in the front page.

Happy submitting !

The Mysterious Black Box (Misteri Kotak Hitam)

Adapting to the new environment in the house is quite a chore by itself, I’ve to tell myself to get use to everything, since most of my old stuff are being thrown away to make room for new furnitures.

It’s pretty cool once I got used to the new stuff and furnitures around me, new bed, new cupboard, new rack, etc. I’ve also put up a “black box” for my use in my room. I’ve assemble it from junk stuff that i found around the house and bought some switch to put it together, by soldering up some wires and glueing the cover together. Yeah, the good old Kemahiran Menipu Latif.

But I won’t tell you what it is for, not now at least. Can you guess what does this “black box” do?

Google Operating System With Its Own Low-Priced PC Product

operating system, google, windows, google.com

Google hit it again! This time, Google.com Inc. is making headlines by planning to offer a range of low-priced pc or other device that connects to the Internet.

It is rumored that the machine would run an operating system created by Google, not Microsoft’s Windows, which is one reason it would be so cheap ? perhaps as little as a couple of hundred dollars.

Whoa, a Google operating system? wonder how it would look like?

It’s the last day of the year 2005

Today is the last day of 2005, looking back at the year, it seems that i’ve accomplished some of my objectives along the way. I wonder what 2006 will bring me?

Uh, to me new year only means that the months wraps back to January and I’ve to remember to change the year when I write dates lol. Nothing to do with motivations though, if you are only motivated to list out your objectives and resolution during a new year, then I guess that you are a bit silly though. A real motivated person create objectives and achieve them all the time. So don’t wait until new year, create mission objectives and work on them now.
