Thanks to a link found by Newboy, it looks like the new rage is Open Source Phone operating systems. Apparently I missed Google’s announcement of the Open Handset Alliance which looks pretty interesting! Nokia seem to be luke-warm on their heals by buying up the Symbian Foundation. Symbian is OK, but I’d be interested in what Google can do. Integration with the rest of my other Google services? Yes please!

And as for the latter part of that article, who cares if the iPhone will be 3G soon? It should’ve been 3G in the first place, and who the hell will pay $200 for an iPhone? iPhones are a bane on this earth, just like any other Apple product is.

Bring on Google’s world domination I say!

As the title suggests, today was quite tiring for me. I spent most of it re-installing Ubuntu Server on Oblivion and getting fustrated with my consistently buggy backplane (new one arriving tomorrow!). Finally I managed to get Virtualmin up and running properly so the migration from Tampa can begin soon. The new server cases will arrive tomorrow so I expect tomorrow evening will be spent moving the hardware to the cases. I have a feeling the cabinet I have will fit the cases but have very little room at the back to breathe. I feel the need to buy a KVM switch is growing now I am moving into rack-mounted realms, so that is probably next on my list of stuff to buy. Anyway, I’m now sat chilling in the Deco with a pint, again having just had pizza… Hannah’s mum went to the train station and is on her way home now. I feel tired and sleepy, but life must go on…

Well after exploring a few options for posting by mobile, I’ve finally found a half decent plug-in to use thanks to Newboy and the creator of WordPress Mobile of course, Andy Moore. How shiny! Not that I needed to use my phone as I am sitting right next to my PC…

Well i’m standing in the pub on my phone writing on my blog. It may seem normal to all those tech people but I’m just catching up with the times! I spoke to my friend Paul about his blog at Velcro City and how far he’s got with making his feeds so popular. He did advise me to re-enable comments after installing Spam Karma so I may investigate this weekend. Anyway I am going to get back to the conversation and be sociable again :) . Ta ta for now!
