Nick Ali: Blackberry Backups in Linux and Linus’s Potty Mouth
http://feeds.feedburner.com –
I’ve got a Blackberry 8320. Its used more for checking email, IM, and twitter/identi.ca than actual calling. If it crashed and burned, I wouldn’t really care that much. But…it would be nice to back up just in case. Barry is the open source solution out there and now the folks who made the PocketMac sync app are coming out with a Linux version. Of course, why they are calling it “PocketMac for Blackberry (Linux Edition)” is beyond me. If you are interested in beta testing the Linux version, go register.
Somehow I missed that Linus Torvalds is now blogging. He says its supposed to be a family blog and there isn’t much on it yet, but I hope to see some of his legendary commentary, like what he thinks of the OpenBSD crowd and the Intel e1000e hardware designer. You can read more of his choice words at Wikiquote.
