Don't Cry
My department bedroom is on a second floor looking at the backyard and it don't have any nice view, the only thing i got is a loud cry from the dog next door. I really like animals but this dog is such a pussy!
"They will come back soon cute and little mother fucker, now shut the fuck up!"

Make-up
Compiz Fusion is the result of the re-unification of the Beryl-project and the community around the Compiz Window Manager. It seeks to provide an easy and fun-to-use windowing environment, allowing use of the graphics hardware to provide impressive effects, amazing speed and unrivalled usefulness. The first Compiz Fusion developer release was Compiz Fusion 0.5.2 on August 13th 2007, shortly after Compiz 0.5.2 was released.
Compiz Fusion, as well as Compiz, is an open-source software project, meaning anyone can use it and contribute to it freely.
It is important to note that Compiz and Compiz Fusion are not the same thing (see: Compiz Fusion Vs Compiz). Shortly said: Compiz Fusion is a community-driven extension pack for Compiz. There is close co-operation between the developers of Compiz and the developers of Compiz Fusion, though; in fact, many Compiz Fusion developers are also Compiz developers.
Features of Compiz and Compiz Fusion
- Hardware-accelerated window management and desktop compositing through OpenGL, using rendering paths like AIGLX, Xgl and direct rendering solutions on some hardware.
- Powerful and flexible plugin interface, allowing almost limitless extension possibilities.
- ARGB rendering, allowing true transparency when the applications support ARGB visuals.
- Compiz Configuration System
- A library which offers transparent support for gconf, kconf and ini settings storage.
A GUI Plugin Configuration Manager, CCSM
- Many community and developer contributed plugins
Main Plugins - Plugins which many users will find useful
Extra Plugins - Plugins that add eye candy or less sought after functionality
- Window Decorators, which provide window frames and titlebars
GTK Window Decorator - Window decorator that supports GNOME Metacity themes
KDE Window Decorator - Window decorator that supports KDE KWin themes
Emerald - Window decorator that is custom themeable and supports full Alpha blended themes.
Slowly finishing Ubuntu's make-up, i want it to look beautiful!
This OS is something new for me but with help from a gnufriend (k0001) i've installed compiz (obviously a must have) and managed to make everything works in a familiar way (my leopard expose setting and other stuff).

Trent's having fun
It may not be a paranormal event, but it’s cool and unusual: Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor has teamed up with Fringe for a new promo spot, EW.com has learned. The spot, which debuts Thursday during Game 5 of the American League Championship Series, features a reworking of the Nine Inch Nails song “Zero-Sum” by Reznor, who recites lines of dialogue from Fringe’s William Bell (Leonard Nimoy) over the music. So, how did the freaky drama series secure the services of Reznor? After Fox’s marketing department showed the Fringe producers a version of the promo that used “Zero-Sum,” series exec producer Jeff Pinkner simply asked a nearby Reznor acquaintance—that’d be co-creator J.J. Abrams—if the NIN musician might be interested in a collaboration. One email later, Reznor was on the case. “We offered him compensation, and he said, ‘No, no, I just want to have fun and be part of something cool,’” says Pinkner, adding: “How often do you get the chance to work with somebody like that?”
Reznor wound up revamping the song in his mobile studio while on tour, and he even came up with the idea of “embedding” one of the show’s glyphs in the music. (Hint: Examine the song’s sound waves on a computer.) Now for the big question: Might Reznor pop up in an episode of Fringe? “If he wants to come act on the show, that’s not tit for tat—that’s an open invitation, and we made that known to him,” says Pinkner. Any ideas on what he may play? “Well, his head would probably end up exploding,” deadpans Pinkner. “There’d be some uncomfortable biology in there one way or another.”

What for:
There are tons of ways to use Google Wave--here are just a few examples to get you thinking and an overview video that shows Google Wave in action.
Organizing events
Keep a single copy of ideas, suggested itinerary, menu and RSVPs, rather than using many different tools. Use gadgets to add weather, maps and more to the event.
Meeting notes
Prepare a meeting agenda together, share the burden of taking notes and record decisions so you all leave on the same page (we call it being on the same wave). Team members can follow the minutes in real time, or review the history using Playback. The conversation can continue in the wave long after the meeting is over.
Group reports and writing projects
Collaboratively work in real time to draft content, discuss and solicit feedback all in one place rather than sending email attachments and creating multiple copies that get out of sync.
Brainstorming
Bring lots of people into a wave to brainstorm - live concurrent editing makes the quantity of ideas grow quickly! It is easy to add rich content like videos, images, URLs or even links to other waves. Discussion ensues. Etiquettes form. Then work together to distill down to the good ideas.
Photo sharing
Drag and drop photos from your desktop into a wave. Share with others. Use the slideshow viewer. Everyone on the wave can add their photos, too. It is easy to make a group photo album in Google Wave.

Wohoo! I'm surfing on Google's Wave now!
