On 11th June, OperaWatched gave us a hint on Opera’s next 'Big Thing'. And since then I have been desperate to see Opera's idea of how they intend to Reinvent the future of the Web with their legacy of innovation. And finally, today Opera has announced “Opera Unite”, an outstanding, All-Purpose Server at your desktop. They've turned next version of their browser into a zero-config server for files, music, photos and websites. Read more & Download Opera Unit from [unite.opera.com] Click Here to Read More..

Reader Sean's desktop proves that Linux can be bright, colorful, and geeky all at the same time—there's no reason to be stuck with brown.  Hit the link for the full explanation and a link to download all of the Conky configuration files used to generate this theme. Great job, Sean! Want to see your own desktop featured here?

Read up on how to customize Conky for ambient Linux productivity, and then post your productive desktop over in the Lifehacker Desktop Show and Tell Flickr Group complete with a description of the programs and tweaks you used (and preferably links as well!), and we just might feature it here.

//EDIT_7:30pm: Just moments ago they have released it (finally). Thank you Ubuntu Team! check out the new features

It’s 23rd April 2009! Promised date for the final release of Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty Jackalope". It's nearly end of the day for me but so far no sign of the final release. Since last night I have been waiting for the final release to hit the servers. Gotta agree it’s painful waiting for the final release. Next time I would recommend the ubuntu team to set not only the date but the exact time it would be available for download. Been waiting patiently for months, guess I could wait afew more hours, or a day for that matter.

There is going to be a mad rush for downloading the release version since there are millions of users waiting for the final release to hit the servers. However, if you can’t be patient until then, you could start downloading the last daily build. In all probability daily build available now would become the final release (maybe with afew minor modifications).

Daily build are available on: http://cdimage.ubuntulinux.org/

What do you think of my new blog design? It was actually completed afew days ago but I had to make sure it works fine with the top web browsers; opera, firefox, chrome and internet explorer. Surely still there are afew minor defects (that I hope you won’t recognize).

While the look has been transformed quite a bit, the idea was to keep the elements I liked from the old cobbled together theme while making the whole thing work and not appear so clumsy. That’s the main reason why I used a pre-coded bloggy (thnxs to falconhive).

Anyways, I guess I must publicize my old blogger theme for free download. So keep in touch folks.

Here's my old bloggy;
