Tech Mini-Link Dump
April 20th, 2007 -- by Augie De Blieck Jr.
- A new edition of the Mandriva Linux Distro has been released. I used to use that one in the days before I settled on SUSE once upon a time in my Linux-loving days. I started on Slackware, then RedHat, then moved to Mandrake for its ease of use.
- Possibly the most useless web site in a long time: WindMaker. Submit a URL and go to the site, which then is animated to simulate the weather conditions of the zip code you entered. Try Various and Sundry in NYC wind. (Via)
- I hate the new WIRED logo. They try to explain it with fancy terminology, but mixing a sans serif font with a serif font just doesn’t work. The article explains kerning very nicely, though, and the comments thread afterwards is a must read for the clarity with which the community rips WIRED apart. Ouch.
