Sketchasting :D

Sketchcasting is a new way to communicate something online by recording a sketch, optionally with your voice speaking. Any sketch can then be embedded on your blog/ homepage for people to play-back, and you can also point people to your sketchcast channel here (or let them subscribe to your sketchcast RSS feed).

Sketchcasting is new but it's based on an old principle: the whiteboard (or the napkin in a bar) on which you sketch something to get a concept across... or to just have some fun. Sketchasting was invented by

wine-doors

download here
Wine-doors is an application designed to make installing windows software on Linux, Solaris or other Unix systems easier. Wine-doors is essentially a package management tool for windows software on Linux systems. Most Linux desktop users are familiar with package management style application delivery, so it made sense to apply this model to windows software.

Wine-doors works by leveraging the exquisite software, libraries and tools created over at WineHQ, there are also plans to support Cedega, cvscedega and Crossover Office.

Wine-doors is developed and styled to fit in with the GNOME desktop but is fairly portable and a user interface could be developed for KDE. As a GNOME application Wine-doors employs pygtk, glade and cairo to represent itself to the user, we also endeavour to follow the tango style guidelines for application icon artwork.

think synaptic for windows apps. :D

youtube hassle workaround

before, when you click an embedded youtube video, it links to its page on youtube. now you cant do that but i have found a work around.
this is how you do it
1. view source (ctrl+u in firefox or View->Page Source)
2. find the word "youtube" and it will take to something like this

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://youtube.com/player2.swf?video_id=IsyWlcQAy-Q&amp;l=83&amp;t=OEgsToPDskK_Y-AtghaW8oJ3taUr1Vz1" id="movie_player" name="movie_player" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" quality="high" height="370" width="450"></embed>
the usual youtube embed.
3. then find the line src="http://youtube.com/player2.swf?video_id=IsyWlcQAy-Q&l=83&t=OEgsToPDskK_Y-AtghaW8oJ3taUr1Vz1"
and copy the text from after "video_id=" until "&"
in this case copy IsyWlcQAy-Q
4. then type in the adress bar "http://youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID"
in this case "http://youtube.com/watch?v=IsyWlcQAy-Q"

size of root (/) partition depends upon many things.
swap should be somewhere 2 times the size of ram. i dont know why
media/things so that when you upgrade or install another linux you'd know where you're stuff is
media/fat so that you can see files from linux in windows and vice versa
