[dundee] Videos of the Week

[gordon dunlop]

Rather than posting boring news articles, I'd rather try and find Linux
multi-media where people can see and hear about the individuals and
community that matter  within Linux.

Here is Canonical's Mark Shuttleworth that sponsers Ubuntu doing a podcast
talking about the Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 release and other Linux things,
there is no truth in the rumour that the release after Jaunty is going to be
called "Swifty Swallow" to get a known SuSE user to use Ubuntu:

This is Max Spevack the Red Hat Community Manager and former Fedora Project
Leader at FOSDEM 2009 talking about Fedora and also about open source
participation (45 mins long):

I liked it Max.

This is also from FOSDEM 2009 starring Christoph Wickert & Mario Behling
talking about LXDE the lightweight desktop:

What your parents did not tell you about the command line but were afraid to
ask (a small tip):

Finally a boring news article with a twist, did you know that macromedia
flash kept hidden cookies on all the websites that you have visited within
your home folder?  check the .macromedia folder. This is how to get rid of
them:

I wonder how many people knew that!
