			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been recently playing with GPS devices on Linux (for example <a href="http://www.i-gotu.com/">i-gotU gt-120</a>, and the <a href="https://edge.launchpad.net/~igotu2gpx/+archive/ppa">linux software to download tracks</a>). I&#8217;ve also been discussing gps+heart rate data storage options. The obvious choice is (ex-Nokia) <a href="http://www.sports-tracker.com/">Sports Tracker</a> and it didn&#8217;t even cross my mind that you could do something like this with local Linux software.</p>
<p>But it&#8217;s useless to ever think like that &#8211; you&#8217;re surprised with the variety of apps that are available and developed for Linux.<br />
I bumped to this blog post on <a href="http://planetkde.org/">Planet KDE</a>: <a href="http://blog.volker-lanz.de/2010/07/28/sports-activity-tracking-app-the-baby-needs-a-name/">Sports Activity Tracking App: The Baby Needs a Name</a>.</p>
<p>And it looks awesome.</p>
<p>Reading the comments I found some other apps that do more or less the same, and Google gave me even more. So here&#8217;s just a quick list of GPS / HRM apps you might want to have a look if they&#8217;d be useful for you:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://blog.volker-lanz.de/2010/07/28/sports-activity-tracking-app-the-baby-needs-a-name/">Then Unnamed / Kardio / Kilometer / &#8230;</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.saring.de/sportstracker/">Sportstracker</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.saring.de/polarviewer/index.html">Polarview</a></li>
<li><a href="http://code.google.com/p/sonicread/">Sonicread</a></li>
<li><a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/polarscope/">Polarscope</a></li>
<li><a href="http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/pytrainer/">Pytrainer</a></li>
<li><a href="http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/viking/index.php?title=Main_Page">Viking</a></li>
<li><a href="http://edu.kde.org/marble/">Marble</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.foxtrotgps.com">FoxtrotGPS</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.opendmtp.org/article/webserv/">OpenDMTP</a></li>
<li><a href="http://blog.sarine.nl/gpx-viewer/">GPX viewer</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.gpsbabel.org/">GPSBabel</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.qlandkarte.org/">QLandkarte M/GT</a></li>
<li><a href="http://opengts.sourceforge.net/">OpenGTS</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.maps-gps-info.com/fgpfw.html">and the list goes on&#8230;.</a>So far I&#8217;ve been using GPSBabel to convert and Viking to analyze and clean the data, but now I might find some new neat tools&#8230; I don&#8217;t have a HRM, only GPS (Openmoko Freerunner), so I&#8217;d like an app to be able to visualize the track on (OpenStreet)Map like Viking does, but then maybe also somehow store the tracks. It&#8217;s a pain to have hundreds of GPX files in folders, some kind of tool to search would be neat. Maybe <a href="http://www.kphotoalbum.org">KPhotoalbum</a> will some day be extended to manage any data, not just photos and videos :)A great place to discuss free GPS software is the <a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS-GPS">FOSS-GPS</a> mailing list, you&#8217;re welcome to join!
<p>Do you have any experience on some of these apps? What features they miss? What&#8217;s the coolest thing they can do?</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Will Firefox in Ubuntu soon use Microsoft Bing as the default search engine? Some press releases / announcements are out that can be interpreted so.</p>
<p>July 2009 / <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2009/jul09/07-29release.mspx">Microsoft Press Release</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Yahoo! and Microsoft announced an agreement that will improve the Web search experience for users and advertisers, and deliver sustained innovation to the industry. In simple terms, Microsoft will now power Yahoo! search while Yahoo! will become the exclusive worldwide relationship sales force for both companies’ premium search advertisers.</p></blockquote>
<p>January 2010 / <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-desktop/2010-January/002396.html">Ubuntu Desktop Mailing List</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Change #2 is changing the default search provider in Firefox to Yahoo!<br />
Note that this won&#8217;t in any way effect the ability of a user to choose<br />
and use the search provider of their choice. It&#8217;s literally 2 easily<br />
discoverable clicks to change this setting, a simple matter of switching<br />
to that search provider in the chrome by clicking on the icon and<br />
choosing the desired provider. Note also that Yahoo! does not share any<br />
personally identifiable or usage information.</p>
<p>Why?<br />
I am pursuing this change because Canonical has negotiated a revenue<br />
sharing deal with Yahoo! and this revenue will help Canonical to provide<br />
developers and resources to continue the open development of Ubuntu and<br />
the Ubuntu Platform. This change will help provide these resources as<br />
well as continuing to respect our user&#8217;s default search across Firefox.</p></blockquote>
<p>February 2010 / <a href="http://yhoo.client.shareholder.com/press/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=445608">Yahoo Press Release</a></p>
<blockquote><p>Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT) and Yahoo! (Nasdaq:YHOO) announced today that they have received clearance for their search agreement, without restrictions, from both the U.S. Department of Justice and the European Commission, and will now turn their attention to beginning the process of implementing the deal.</p>
<p>Implementation of the deal is expected to begin in the coming days and will involve transitioning Yahoo!&#8217;s algorithmic and paid search platforms to Microsoft, with Yahoo! becoming the exclusive relationship sales force for both companies&#8217; premium search advertisers globally. Once the transition is completed, the companies&#8217; unified search marketplace will deliver improved innovation for consumers, better volume and efficiency for advertisers and better monetization opportunities for web publishers through a platform that contains a larger pool of search queries.</p></blockquote>
<p>To me it looks like that 1+1 = Firefox of Ubuntu will soon be using Microsoft search engines and algorithms. If you know more about  and are able to clarify, please add it to the comments. What do you think, would you be happy to use Bing search engine as your search engine or are you maybe already using? Better than Google?</p>
<p>Thanks Aapo for the tip!</p>

<p>Sieltä pullahtaa ulos kaksi tiedostoa:</p>
<p><code>EULA.txt (6.6K) ja install.pl (25K)<br />
</code></p>
<p>EULA:n ensimmäine kappale kertoo tällaista:</p>
<blockquote>
<div id="_mcePaste">”Gigantti Photo Shop” -ohjelman (jäljempänä ”ohjelma”) asennusta ja käyttöä koskevat lisenssi- ja käyttöehdot. Ohjelman julkaisija on CeWe Color AG &amp; Co. OHG, Meerweg 30-32, 26133 Oldenburg. Ohjelman on tuottanut ja sen omistaa CeWe Color AG &amp; Co. OHG (jäljempänä tekijä), Meerweg 30-32, 26133 Oldenburg. Toimituksellisissa teemoissa olevat kuvat ja tekstit ovat tekijänoikeudellisesti suojatut. Maksun yhteydessä käyttäjä saa ei-yksinoikeudellisen ja ei-siirrettävän oikeuden ladata valitut teemat omalle tietokoneelleen oman henkilökohtaisen albumin käyttöön. Kuvien ja tekstien käyttö, sisältäen myös muokkauksen ja/tai kopioinnin, ja jakelu jatkossa on kielletty. Materiaalia ei myöskään saa antaa julkiseen käyttöön.</div>
</blockquote>
<p>No ei varsinaisesti yllättänyt. Vilkaistaanpas tuota install.pl:ää. Näyttäisi lataavan serveriltä jonkinlaisen indeksitiedoston jonka perusteella lataa loput. Ajetaan se.</p>
<p><code>./install.pl</code></p>
<p>Terminaalissa toimii. Suomeksi antaa jutut, alkuun luetuttaa EULA:n, ja kysyy hyväksytäänkö ne [ja/NEJ]. Vähän puutteellinen suomennos.</p>
<p>Tämän jälkeen kysyy asennuskansiota, ehdottaa kotikansion alle luotavaksi kansiota Gigantti_photoshop4.5/Gigantti Photo Shop.</p>
<p>Ehdottaa ladattavaksi seuraavia settejä netistä [JA/nej]</p>
<p><code> Executable [application/zip]    2908186 (2.8M)<br />
Linux Libraries [application/zip]       12509022 (12M)<br />
Photofun [application/zip]      7995687 (7.6M)<br />
Resources [application/zip]     30273193 (29M)<br />
SVGTemplates [application/zip]  11740978 (11M)<br />
</code></p>
<p>Latailu kuitenkin päättyi näin iloisesti:</p>
<p><code><br />
Tarvittavat tiedostot pakataan asennuskansioon.<br />
Asennustiedostoa ei voitu luoda.<br />
</code></p>
<p>Leatherman esiin ja tutkimaan..<br />
Ei luonut koko kohdekansiota. Latasi paketit  kansioon josta installerin käynnistin. Jos olisi vapaampaa koodia, saattaisin viitsiä katsoa miksi näin. Niinpä nyt ajan asennusohjelman uudelleen.</p>
<p>Ja zädäm, kun EULA:n hyväksymisen jälkeen annan ohjelmalle luvan asentaa oletuskansioon, se purkaa tiedostot lataamatta niitä uudelleen ja kertoo että</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8216;Gigantti Photo Shop&#8217; on nyt asennettu tietokoneellesi.<br />
Aloittaaksesi sinun pitää ajaa &#8216;/home/rhk/Gigantti_photoshop4.5/Gigantti Photo Shop/Gigantti Photo Shop&#8217; -tiedosto.</p></blockquote>
<p>No eihän tuollaista voi ajaa, välilyönnit ja kaikki, oikea ajettava on<br />
<code> /home/rhk/Gigantti_photoshop4.5/Gigantti\ Photo\ Shop/Gigantti\ Photo\ Shop</code></p>
<p>Koitin myös ohjelman Windows-versiota, halusin tietää, miten se on toteutettu. Niinpä latasin <a href="http://dls.photoprintit.de/download/Data/5074/hps/setup_Gigantti_Photo_Shop.exe">EXE</a>-tiedoston ja asentelin sen Winellä Kubuntuuni. Lähinnä halusin nähdä onko tässä käytetty hyödyksi Qt:n etuja ja sama softa saatu helposti kolmelle alustalle. Latailun aikana jo katselin niin kyllä, Qt-tavaraa kovasti asennuksen aikana ilmestyy winen kansioon. Valikoita selailemalla löytyy viittaukset myös Nokiaan:</p>
<div id="attachment_3045" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/gigantti2.png" rel="lightbox[3042]"><img class="size-medium wp-image-3045" title="Copyrights" src="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/gigantti2-300x238.png" alt="Copyrights" width="300" height="238" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Copyrights</p></div>
<p>Nyt siis käynnistelin rinnakkain Windows-versio winen päällä sekä Linux-versio.</p>
<p>Kumpikin ehdottaa uuden version tarkastusta (ja asennusta). Kumpikin väittää siinä onnistuneensa. Windows-versio tosin katoaa johonkin..</p>
<p>Jep, Windows-versio ei näytä selviävän päivityksestä. Käynnistän sen siis ilman päivitystä.</p>
<p>Ei auta, johonkin se aina katoaa, tällaisin ilmoituksin:</p>

<p>No, ei siis ajeta Qt:n päällä Wineä joka ajaa Qt-ohjelmaa.</p>
<p>Ajetaan suoraan Qt-ohjelmaa, eli Linux-versiota.</p>
<p>Ohjelman mukana seuraa kattavanoloinen opas/ohjepaketti. Samalla ohjelmalla voi tilata myös tavalliset valokuvat, erikoistuotteet jne.<br />
Kirjaa luodessa avustajaa (&#8216;wizard&#8217;) ei ole pakko käyttää, ajattelin kuitenkin kokeilla. Alkuun valitaan käytettävät kuvat. Päätetään sivumäärää, kuinka monta kuvaa sivulle jne.</p>
<p>Tämän jälkeen valitaan taustan tyyppi: kova kansi, pehmeä kansi, kangaskansi, vihko jne.</p>
<p>Tausta. Voin valita samanaikaisesti kuusi erilaista taustaa (musta, valkoinen, oma kuva sekä 3 automaattisesti tuumittua kuviota). Samoin voin valita useamman erilaisen tavan asetella kuvat sivuille.</p>
<div id="attachment_3046" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/gigantti3.png" rel="lightbox[3042]"><img class="size-medium wp-image-3046" title="Osa sivua" src="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/gigantti3-300x117.png" alt="Osa sivua" width="300" height="117" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Osa sivua</p></div>
<p>Kuvien lajittelu ja sijoitus voidaan määritellä kolmella tavalla, liittyen jotenkin aikasidonnaisuuteen, siis että onko kuvat lomamatkan eri päiviltä vai vuoden 2009 tapahtumista (pääsiäinen, kesäloma, joulu..), vai tiedostonimien perusteella arvotaan jotain.</p>
<p>Viimeisellä välilehdellä valitaan asetukset, millä perusteella kuvia voidaan karsia pois valikoimasta, siis jos kuvia on enemmän kuin sivuille mahtuisi: samanlaiset kuvat, epäterävät kuvat, ylimlottuneet kuvat ja joku &#8216;värikkäät kuvat&#8217;.</p>
<p>&#8216;Näytä ryhmittely&#8217; oli lajitellut testikuvat kahteen pakettiin &#8211; ne oli kuvattu n. kahtena viikonloppuna, välissä oli useampi vuosi. &#8216;Albumin luonti&#8217; teki jotain, tämän jälkeen se ehdotti kaikista salamalla otetuista kuvista punasilmäisyyden poistoa: &#8216;Poistetaanko?&#8217;, &#8216;Kyllä/En&#8217;. Lienee lueskellut EXIF-tietoja kuvista.</p>
<p>No, kun nämä naputtelin läpi (olisin voinut myös valita &#8216;tee tämä kaikille&#8217; tms), sain eteeni kirjan, johon kuvat oli heitelty valmiiksi sivuille. Pystykuvia se ei ollut osannut kääntää pystyyn. Sivuille oli heitetty yksi kuva taustalle ja loput sitten siihen päälle. Joihinkin tarkoituksiin kovin rauhaton tapa mutta lienee jotenkin itse päätettävissä. Sivujen asettelua sai helposti muokattua hilaamalla vain uusi &#8216;leiska&#8217; vanhan päälle. Kuvat päällekkäin, vierekkäin, kulmittain, tekstilaatikoita.. Myös taustavärin vaihto oli helppo homma, hilataan vain uusi taustaväri tai -kuvio sivun päälle.</p>
<p>Ohjelmassa on tallennusominaisuudet, tilausominaisuudet jne jne. Asetukset vaikuttavat monipuolisilta. Myös &#8216;tallenna nimellä&#8230;&#8217; löytyy: ohjelma tallentaa jonkinlaiseen XML -formaattiin:</p>
<p><code>fotobook producttype="17" version="3.0" isDataMcf="0" theme="normal" productname="ALB17" savetime="2010-02-18 23:21" normalpages="26" imagedir="Gigantti_mcf-Dateien" fotobooksize="QUADHARD" productvariant="" totalpages="31" startdatecalendarium="" programversion="4005004" covercolor="000000" productparameter=""</code></p>
<p>Kullekin kuvalle voi tehdä kaikenlaisia muokkauksia: säätää sävyjä, käännellä ja peilailla, skaalata, rajata, puuttua kirkkauteen, kontrastiin, värikylläisyyteen, &#8216;color&#8217; ja &#8216;hue&#8217; sekä tietysti poistaa punaisia silmiä. Kunkin käsitellyn kuvan pystyi jopa tallentamaan vielä ohjelman ulkopuolelle jpg:nä.</p>
<p>Alun päivitysohjelma yritti latailla uusia hinnastoja, mahdollisesti siinä kuitenkaan onnistumatta. Tämä tuntuu vähän aiheuttavan jotain häikkää tilaussivulla hintojen laskemisessa.</p>
<p>Tilatessa pitää rekisteröityiä palvelun käyttäjäksi syöttämällä kaikenlaisia tietoja.</p>
<h3>Summa summarum</h3>
<p>Ei valittamista. Tuntuu toimivan ihan uskottavasti. Gigantin painojäljestä, hinnoista, toimitusajoista en tiedä, ohjelma kuitenkin toimii Linuxissa uskottavan hyvin, pienistä puutteista ja käännöskukkasista huolimatta.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My <a href="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/2009/03/spotify-not-impressed/">previous review on Spotify</a> wasn&#8217;t very nice on Spotify. Now 6 months later I must admit that it&#8217;s the only source of music in Internet I use.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;re some tips for every new users on both Windows and Linux.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/spotify.png" rel="lightbox[2368]"><img class="size-full wp-image-2372 aligncenter" title="Spotify" src="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/spotify.png" alt="Spotify" width="400" height="150" /></a>Hey, it&#8217;s not beautiful but I made it myself :)</p>
<h3><span id="more-2368"></span>Invitations</h3>
<p>Yes, you need one if you want to listen to Spotify and don&#8217;t want to pay 10e/month for Spotify Premium (no ads). You can ask some of your friends for one or try at <a href="http://invitify.fleo.se/">http://invitify.fleo.se/</a></p>
<p>Tai jos olet nyt satut tuntemaan minut jossain määrin niin heitä minulle viestiä, saatan joltain kaverilta saada välitettyä kutsun. Laitetaan vielä ulkomaanveikoille hämäykseksi tuo sama osoite mistä noita voi yrittää onkia: <a href="http://invitify.fleo.se/">http://invitify.fleo.se/</a></p>
<h3>Installation</h3>
<p>Yes, you can run Spotify also on Linux. You&#8217;ll need Wine for that. Check <a href="http://www.spotify.com/en/help/faq/wine/">installation instructions for Linux</a>.</p>
<h3>Spotify URLs</h3>
<p>No matter how bad music you listen, you can always share it with your friends! Right click on track -&gt; Copy HTTP Link. Send this link to your friend, just paste it to e-mail, instant message or Facebook.</p>
<p>Now some things that you can do with an URL you receive.</p>
<ul>
<li>Paste it to <a href="http://spotify.url.fi/">http://spotify.url.fi/</a> to see what song it is.</li>
<li>Paste it to the search field of Spotify client to open the song / playlist.</li>
<li>Open it in directly in your browser and you&#8217;ll see an ugly useless web page. It&#8217;s possible  to hack also your non-windows browser to support opening the song  automatically on Spotify. Instructions for <a href="http://www.spotify.com/en/help/faq/wine/">Firefox</a> (see the  bottom of the page) and <a href="http://robotti.wippiesblog.com/2009/11/02/spotify-ja-konqueror-ne-yhteen-soppii/">Konqueror</a> (in Finnish but you&#8217;ll still be able to read the code bits.. :)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Playlists</h3>
<p>Create you own playlists by selecting the songs, right click -&gt; Save to.. and select either &#8216;New playlist&#8217; or an existing playlist.</p>
<p>Share your playlists by right clicking on the playlist name -&gt; copy HTTP Link. And share it with your friends.</p>
<p>You can also make a playlist &#8216;Collaborative&#8217; by right click -&gt; &#8216;Collaborative Playlist&#8217;. Now everyone who you&#8217;ve share the playlist with, can also edit it, and the changes will be seen by everyone who have the list loaded.</p>
<p>Some places to share your playlists:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://sharemyplaylists.com/">http://sharemyplaylists.com/</a> (the &#8216;official&#8217;)</li>
<li><a href="http://www.spotifylists.com/">http://www.spotifylists.com/</a></li>
<li><a href="http://soittolista.com/">http://soittolista.com/</a> (in Finnish)</li>
</ul>
<h3>My playlists</h3>
<p>Hera are some of my playlists for you to enjoy. Feel free to suggest me to add missing artists there.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://open.spotify.com/user/rhkfin/playlist/07RoYBSn9d95u77uMeTg86">Worship</a></li>
<li><a href="http://open.spotify.com/user/rhkfin/playlist/5CJkkHEs7fp1lsteZd0mnH">Gypsy Jazz</a> &#8211; see my <a href="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/2010/01/gypsy-jazz-jazz-manouche/">Jazz Manouche blog post.</a></li>

<h3>Spotify Guide to World of Classical Music</h3>
<p>A friend of mine has been looking for the classical masterpieces with the best recording quality and listed those here: <a href="http://koti.mbnet.fi/reaby/musicguide/">Spotify Guide to World of Classical Music</a>!</p>
<p>Also check hist &#8216;<a href="http://weeklyclassical.wordpress.com">Weekly classical</a>&#8216; for the latest classical hits in Spotify!</p>
<h3>Review</h3>
<p>Spotify&#8217;s still closed (although open source client <a href="http://despotify.se/">Despotify</a> is available). As far as I know, it&#8217;s not making any profit yet. S60 mobile client (only for premium subscriptions) is a nice idea. The ads, where a guy with a strong Swedish accent reads the text in Finnish are horrible.</p>
<p>Spotify is failing big time on the community aspect: <a href="http://sharemyplaylists.com/">Sharemyplaylists</a> is not enough. I want to be able to add friends on the client, see what they listen and send them recommendations. How about integrated statistics?</p>
<p>And artists are not happy: The most played artist, <a href="http://torrentfreak.com/lady-gaga-earns-slightly-more-from-spotify-than-piracy-091121/">Lady Gaga earned about 113 euros in 5 months</a>, being the most player artist in Spotify. Spotify badly needs more Premiums users, and artists need badly better deals from the record labels.</p>
<p>However, it&#8217;s still the free best source of music in Internet having the widest selection, new releases and everything.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I started today two new IRC channels on Freenode to discuss the usage and development of two great Free &amp; Open source programs, Tangogps and Smile, and also to allow free &amp; realtime discussion of the user communities.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tangogps.org">Tangogps</a> is a map &amp; gps program for Linux. Tangogps is written by Marcus Bauer and ir runs on devices like <a href="http://wiki.openmoko.org">Openmoko Freerunner</a>, but also on desktop computers. The channel I started is #tangogps, feel free to join! (<a href="http://embed.mibbit.com/?server=irc.freenode.net&amp;channel=%23tangogps&amp;noServerNotices=true&amp;noServerMotd=true&amp;forcePrompt=true">Ajax client</a> and <a href="http://java.freenode.net//index.php?channel=tangogps">Java client</a>)</p>
<p><a href="http://smile.tuxfamily.org/">Smile</a> is a slideshow application for Linux by Stéphane Gibault, see my <a href="http://risto.kurppa.fi/blog/2009/11/smile-a-great-photo-show-software-for-linux/">blog post on Smile</a>. The Irc channel is #smile-slideshow. Join the discussion there! (<a href="http://embed.mibbit.com/?server=irc.freenode.net&amp;channel=%23smile-slideshow&amp;noServerNotices=true&amp;noServerMotd=true&amp;forcePrompt=true">Ajax  client</a> and <a href="http://java.freenode.net//index.php?channel=smile-slideshow">Java client</a>)</p>
<p>Let the discussion flow!</p>
<p>What&#8217;s your experience on these apps? Using Tangogps or Smile? Best things about them?</p>
<p>About IRC &#8211; I think the IRC commands are a bit of a pain.. on #tangogps, I first dropped my op rights only to realize that after that I wasnt&#8217; able to register the channel.. So 4 of us had to leave the channel to gain admin rights again.. But I&#8217;m learning :)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For long I&#8217;ve been trying to find something to create photo shows with Linux. So far Cinelerra has been the best choice but being.. well, not as simple as I&#8217;d hope it to be, I haven&#8217;t been able to create any photo shows. Then I found Smile &#8211; and here&#8217;s a result from playing maybe 10 minutes. Took some random photos from my travels.</p>
<p><object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZaNfR9AiqlI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZaNfR9AiqlI&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object></p>
<p>It also allows me to add audio tracks (which I didn&#8217;t do &#8211; copyright stuff and didn&#8217;t spend time looking for Free music yet..), video clips etc etc. PERFECT!!</p>
<p><a href="https://edge.launchpad.net/~gaspa">PPA for Ubuntu Packages</a><br />
<a href="http://smile.tuxfamily.org/">Smile Homepage</a><br />
Gaspa isn&#8217;t maintaining the package any more &#8211; I&#8217;d so much appreciate it if someone would be able to take over the package and take it all the way to Debian/Ubuntu.</p>
