For app of the week I suggest Madman music organizer:

Slack packages:

Someone also wrote a sript to load the playlists to an I-Pod:

This article talks about this new company based in Los Angeles that offers high end PCs. They're supposedly creating a new 64 bit linux distro:

The company website:

I've never heard of these guys. Is this company for real?!
I googled the company and people are dismissing them on different sites:

Not strictly Linux related, more open source, but it would be interesting to hear your comments on the whole furore over Moveable Type 3.0

Some blog posts about it:

Any insight on this whole Ken Brown, President of the Alexis de Tocqueville Institution, thing? I read that he's got some book coming out regarding open source technology, or some damned thing.

What do you guys think? (As if I have to ask)
