So, when I released the initial CrunchBang Linux I really didn't think that anyone would actually download it. Turns out I was wrong, and this really surprised me. Initially I had no intention of working on another release of CrunchBang, see the quote below from the release notes:
It should be noted that my remastered version […]
Foreword: I have to admit that I was somewhat sceptical when Gouki introduced me to Tribal Wars. It's easy to dismiss such games as both frivolous and childish. Since experiencing the game for myself, I can now see the attraction. Tribal Wars has been my first introduction to a MMOG and while I may not […]
It was suggested on IRC that it might be useful to set-up some forums for CrunchBang Linux. So, I've set-up some forums for CrunchBang Linux. This wasn't an easy decision to make and personally I'm still not sure that the forums are needed; however, I do agree that it might be nice to have somewhere […]
Twitter, I guess it's one of those web applications where you either "get" it or you don't. For a long time I stood firmly in the don't "get" it camp. My history with Twitter is somewhat scattered, I posted my first couple of tweets on December 21, 2006. It was a while until I tweeted […]
A Serbian translation of the random Ubuntu advocacy images is now available. The translation comes courtesy of Milos Jakovljevic and the Serbian Ubuntu LoCo team. Thank you Milos.
The complete Serbian set can be viewed on this demo page. The code to display the images is below, simply copy & paste into your HTML/blog […]

I use IRC most […]
The Ubuntu advocacy images are now available in 12 different languages. Alexander Telenga has done a fantastic job converting the images into Russian. These new Russian images are some of my favourites to date, I love the Russian character set. Thank you Alexander :)
The complete Russian set can be viewed on this demo […]
So, Andy Loughran, AKA Eärendur of Dorthonion, has been busy translating these images into Elvish. Not wanting to upset our pointy eared friends, or the Elvish Linguistic Fellowship [I hear the E.L.F are BIG on Ubuntu!], I've uploaded Andy's translations and made them available from my file server. Thank you Andy, I think!?
The […]
Another translation of the Random Ubuntu Advocacy images. Ali Servet Dönmez has done a fantastic job translating the images into Turkish. This translation takes the language count into double figures, at this rate we're going to break the record for the most translated web advert!?
The full turkish set can be seen on this […]
Marius Nestor of Softpedia has written a review of CrunchBang Linux. I was pleasantly surprised when I read it, it's actually quite positive. Quote:
We took CrunchBang for a little test drive on one of our systems here at Softpedia, and we found it quite interesting and very fast. It includes the following applications:
Epiphany web browser
Firefox […]
