Windows 7 or KDE4?

Windows 7 Loading Screen

Seen an interesting video made by ZDnet Australia showcasing some Australian people reaction when they see KDE4 (If you don’t know what is KDE its just a frontend to any common Linux Distribution – although in my personal opinion, I still prefer the more classic Gnome Look).

WordPress Plugin: WP Clickmap

Wordpress Clickmap Plugin

WordPress Clickmap is an interesting plugin to complement the analysis of your blog statistics. While tools like Google Analytics or even WordPress.com Stats offer you a discrimination of your website statistics it doesn’t give you visual feedback of the “hottest” spots on your website. Well, this is exactly what WP Clickmap does. It builds an overlay of your most visited pages and show you the location of the clicks it received from your visitors. That gives you a lot of information if you know how to analyze it, at a first look it should give you a clear idea what is more used in your design or any dysfunctional areas (like my title that doesn’t guide you to the main page).

Gnome DO

When using Linux one of the things I’ve missed was a good Dock bar. I’m so used to using one in Windows (see Anatomy of my Desktop for more details) that it feels completely different managing my Tasks without using this kind of application. There is more then one dock for Linux, actually, but they always felt very buggy or feature incomplete to me, so I kinda tried to live without them. But recently I came across a project I didn’t know about, called Gnome Do. I haven’t tried it yet, going to install it today but from the description and the feature list this was just what I was looking for. The look is great. I’ll give you more details after I try it, but I think if you’re interested in Linux you should keep an eye on this app still on 0.8 version.

Vistart: Windows XP Menu Like Vista

Vistart: Vista Menu for XP

So you still use Windows XP on one of your machines, but you are already familiar to the way Windows Vista is organized? Found another tool you might find useful interesting to join your I_want_XP_to_look_like_Vista type of application.

It keeps running in the background with an Icon in the Taskbar. It works well, I’ve tried it. It’s not Vista… but it sure tries to make XP look like it.

You can also find some themes for it under DeviantART.
