No more brown in Ubuntu desktop? Anyway, I must recognize that the posted screenshots are pretty…. It seems that Ubuntu is succesfully shaping a path toward a “clear” and fresh new style.
The new layout let you understand that there is something “new”, without loosing completely the old and widely accepted look & feel. Well done Ubuntu!

Just stumbled upon the page explaining the “MeMenu” concept, to be fully implemented in upcoming releases of Ubuntu. I like very much the Rationale under this project. With the other news, such as the music store that’s just opening, it seems more and more difficult not to love Ubuntu, in my humble opinion ! š

Broadly speaking, it seems hard to deny that linux on desktop is getting more and more appealing with time… Problems remains in the lack of certain “key applications” (as iTunes, or Photoshop); its avaibility could drive many user to linux, IMHO…

Interesting article on the recently released Google Buzz, the social network built from Google in a close connection with its popular Gmail service. The main advantages and limits of the new services are correctly explained, IMHO.
