Chrome Commands

I did a quick search and found these kinda shortcuts for Google Chrome to check out what's under the hood! Some are the same as Mozilla Firefox. I should mention that right now, on my own 64bit unstable Linux Google chrome build, some of these won't return any output, cross my finger to get them in later builds! :-)

PySide !!

The other day I was surfing the web that i found this..

PySide "The PySide project provides LGPL-licensed Python bindings for the Qt cross-platform application and UI framework. PySide Qt bindings allow both free open source and proprietary software development and ultimately aim to support all of the platforms as Qt itself."

It's kinda nice, although i'm a pygtk fan, but this idea is good for community instead of old-school pyqt!

get ready for more open hand on Qt python bindings!!

Unstable Linux Chrome

Last night I've downloaded the new version of Google Chrome unstable dev channel and installed it on my Debian unstable! (Yes i use debian unstable branch and i love it pretty much).

It's 64bit version and it's working pretty good. Compared to the last time that i've downloaded it, about 5 months ago, it's more mature and rest of the stuff on Options were build for it. Good thing about Chrome is it's less system resource intensive then Mozilla Firefox (i've got 3.5.2 'til now).

Google's own apps and pages, like Google Docs and Blogger opens slightly faster!

So go ahead and download it and use it right away, cause it's freaking awesome!

DebConf9 to DebConf10

So finally DecConf9 finished with huge enthusiasm of Debian lovers and several key decisions has been made for future of Debian.

You can download the meeting's videos from here.

Now we can take some time to go back wherever we came from and just get ready for the next DebConf, DebConf10 which will be held in New York City in Summer 2010. I'm sure it's gonna be huge; wish to be there!

Debian Release Cycle

Finally Debian guys joined rest of the community for time-based release cycle! From now on, we can all enjoy a good stable Debian at hand; but still, every 2 years! personally, I think it's still too much, I'm on Debian sid right now and I think it works stable enough to put on the line sooner then two years.

Here is quote from Debian news..

"The Debian project has decided to adopt a new policy of time-based development freezes for future releases, on a two-year cycle. Freezes will from now on happen in the December of every odd year, which means that releases will from now on happen sometime in the first half of every even year. To that effect the next freeze will happen in December 2009, with a release expected in spring 2010. The project chose December as a suitable freeze date since spring releases proved successful for the releases of Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 (codenamed Etch) and Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 (Lenny)."
