Some days ago I've upgraded my machine with a new HDD - 2TB Western Digital Green series. I also planned on upgrading my RAM to 4GB (from current 3GB), and did so yesterday. But, this was not a pleasant endeavor...
After opening-up the machine I've done some cleaning-up since quite a bit of dust had ...

Well, after my recent purchase of Android, I got back into reading books again. Using <a href="http://www.fbreader.org/">FBReader's</a> built-in option for searching and downloading free e-books, I've stumbled upon a very nice fantasy book written by <a href="http://ecmock.blogspot.com/">Elizabeth C. Mock</a> titled <a href="Shatter">http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/17486</a>.
The book is supposed to be the first in ...

Last night was quite fun. After quite a long time, an interesting band decided to hold the concert in Belgrade - <a href="http://www.painofsalvation.com/POSdotcom/enter.html">Pain of Salvation</a>. Since we don't get many progressive bands playing here, I just had to go.
They were promoting their new album, but I've mostly listened to their older stuff ...

Well, after a lot of reluctance, I've finally made the jump onto the <a href="http://www.android.com/">Android</a> bandwagon. For a long time I haven't been ready to make the move onto it since I was hoping that a more Freedom-friendly platform would emerge, but alas, after Nokia's fiasco and <a href="https://meego.com/">MeeGo</a>, there's not ...

From time to time I go back to Jamendo looking for something new to listen. Every time I get amazed by the quality of some of the albums that can be found there.
This time what drew my attention was the <a href="http://awards.jamendo.com/en/jamendoAwards2011">Jamendo Awards 2011</a>, which have been organized to both promote the ...

I've been on vacation since the Wednesday, and it's going to stay like that for a week to come. During this time I'm planning on relaxing a bit and making a migration of my mail+XMPP server, as well as playing with some other stuff.
This time I've decided to use the LDAP as a back-end, ...

You've really got to be amazed at the pace <strike>Red Hat</strike> Fedora likes to deploy new technologies on its <strike>guinea pigs</strike> users. Reading today's <a href="http://lwn.net/">LWN</a> RSS feeds, I've ran into the following jewel - <a href="http://lwn.net/Articles/446925/">Fedora 16 to use Btrfs as its default filesystem</a>.
To be honest, am I surprised? ...

Some days ago I've decided to make a small update to my site by installing the <a href="http://drupal.org/project/comment_notify">Comment Notify</a> module. The module should help the visitors get updates on answers in the comment sections. The main reason I added this since some people have been asking me questions on some of the Free ...

As it sometimes happens, I've been way too lazy to even start working on the photos I've made during my visit to Brussels this year for the FOSDEM conference. The photos have just been sitting around on my disk, collecting the bit-dust.
I have finally remedied this issue, converted the photos to appropriate sizes and ...
