CampKDE, return

I'm writing the first part of the first entry in Newark airport waiting for the connection (bloody networkmanager, why don't you want to connect to the free access point?). This night didn't went to sleep at all, some of us kept watching silly movies until 3am (then farewells and seeya next time, with the usual sweet/bitter taste), when I left for the airport.

CampKDE, day last

CampKDE is coming to an end, I'm writing this during the last tutorial session, Qt embedded is a quite different beast compared to what we're used to, but cool stuff indeed

campkde, day 2-3

When I'm at KDE events usually I don't really find time to write that much, by the way, this week I'm in San Diego at CampKDE, we're now at day 3, the third day of talks, today the lighting talks, together with tutorials and BOFs. All the talks were really interesting, I also gave a talk on the netbook stuff, you can find slides here :) It was probably one of the first important KDE talks i gave and gone pretty well (since all the english still don't belong to me :p)

Netbook, Pages and what they're for

As presented on this blog a bit ago the central and more important view for Plasma Netbook Shell is this so called "Newspaper" activity: applets are positioned in an arbitrary number of columns (default two), one on top of the other, scrolling when there isn't enough space, giving you actually an "almost infinite" vertical real estate

Plasma and KWin

Those are not radically new features, but rather a refinement of what it was available in KDE Plasma Desktop 4.3

Kdenlive

For the last screencasts I had to do, I needed some tool were it's easy to cut little pieces of various short movie files and that could have let me to assemble them togeher, maybe with some simple not too heavy transition effects.
