As some of you may know, Seif has been working closely with the Software Center developers to integrate Zeitgeist into the Software Center. We blogged about the Software Center using Zeitgeist to display app usage a couple of weeks ago, and naturally the next step would be for that information to be translated into recommendations, which is very, very cool.
OMG! Reader Nicholas Ipsen dropped by our inbox earlier today to show us some sweet Ubuntu font action in Android. As you might expect, the new font that Canonical contracted type foundry Dalton Maag to design looks brilliant on Google's mobile operating system. More screenshots after the jump.
Two new T Shirts for the Maverick Meerkat release of Ubuntu that comes out in just over a week have appeared in the Canonical Store.
A few days ago I posted an article about Ninite, a software installation service that helps install multiple applications and repositories. Since then, I've been chatting with some folk from Ninite to clear up some of the information in that article.
We've compiled all of the branding for our sites into one .zip file to make it easier for people to use our logos around the web.
I'm very pleased to announce that Ubuntu Gamer, the gaming website we've been working on for a while, is now live and ready for action! Focusing primarily on gaming on Ubuntu we will be presenting you with lots of fantastic content over the coming months.
The new Ubuntu font that Canonical commissioned typeface designers Dalton Maag to develop for the Ubuntu operating system has landed in Ubuntu 10.10 for all users.
Just under six months ago we shared an awesome Ubuntu 10.04 post-install guide by Danny Piccirillo. Danny emailed me yesterday to let me know he's working on a similar guide for Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat, and he's recently blogged about it - asking for submissions of your favourite applications for inclusion.
Reader Heiner Valverde dropped us a handy hint today in the OMG! inbox: Ninite, a website that provides an easy way to install multiple applications after a fresh install, has released a beta version for Linux users. But, it's not all fresh roses - I delved deeper into the mystery that is Ninite, surely something as good as this can't be true?
Our very own Seif Lotfy, known for his hard work on Zeitgeist and the Activity Journal, has just posted a video over on his blog that shows off some experimentation with quick access to the Activity Journal.
Spring is in the air, flowers are blooming and curious lambs bounce around lavish green fields as winter draws to a close and the Sun's early luminescent rays begin to fill up the sky in preparation for summer. Enjoy these fine wallpapers that I found on deviantart over a hot mug of coffee and cereal this morning.
I got my hands on Apple's new cool peripheral that everyone is talking about, the Magic Trackpad. When it was first released, a lot of people said that this was the beginning of the end of the humble and trusty mouse. I'm not entirely convinced that the magic trackpad spells the end, but this idea of bringing laptop multitouch to the desktop is certainly is an interesting concept...
