I love that graphic department at Twitter: Isn’t this a peachy illustration – consider that this was used during a database crash. Luvly.

Great news for everyone who can not decide about going open source from the scratch:
You can now download the [stubidnamed] software Wubi from wubi-installer.org. Wubi installs a full Ubuntu Hardy Haron system within windows.
No need to burn a CD. Just run the installer, enter a password for the new account, and click “Install”, go grab a coffee, and when you are back, Ubuntu will be ready for you. You keep Windows as it is, Wubi only adds an extra option to boot into Ubuntu. Wubi does not require you to modify the partitions of your PC, or to use a different bootloader, and does not install special drivers.
After starting the application, you have options for the user interface to choose from:
Then, Wubi starts to download the operating system from a Ubuntu server repository and installs it automatically regarding to your hardware. After rebooting, you can choose whether to start your computer into Windows or Ubuntu. As simple as making a sandwich.
Minimum requirements:
Sounds great. I am trying it just now. Really curious if it can compete in the everyday system battle.

Beautiful Twitter Mashup: Twistori. A content harvester that filters emotional twitter microposts. Made by Amy Hoy and Thomas Fuchs.
A “first person” visualization of Twitter messages, inspired by We Feel Fine. Twitter messages are filtered by occurrences of the phrases:
- I love
- I hate
- I think
- I believe
- I feel
- I wish
which are placed in a visual scrolling message ticker. Similar to Digg Labs BigSpy.

I just made a new friend on MySpace – and I do not regret. I know his remixes for Chromeo, Das Pop and some of his genuine compositions. Check out Contact at his Myspace Site.
From Discogs:
Yuksek is one of the front runners of the new wave of French electro. His productions and remixes released on I’m A Cliché, Rise & Relish have captured the interest of many and have been playlisted by Pedro Winter, Andrew Weatherall, Freeform Five, Mylo, Laurent Garnier, Justice, Detect [...]
Alone on stage with his machines and a microphone, he goes back to the origins with his no-nonsense old school sound, [....] an orderly mess mixing hip hop and techno rhythms, pop structures, dry & accurate sounds.

I blended sounds that swirl your gutts and later on kick your butt. Have a double sized Srewdriver & enjoy listening.

I’d like to share this little video from my trip to Finland in march. A collage of the endless hours me and my brother spend behind the wheel. This is an update to Hey Suomi | The Finn Album
