Canada Day!

Hello World. 

Today is Canada Day for all us Canadians. :)

Well, I found one of the great wonders of the World today. A Sega Genesis :P And Sonic 2, and boy I cannot wait to play that. All things considered. Last time I played it, was at "least" 8 years back.

On a technical note. I have arranged a day on this weekend to Install, Implement and hopefully maintain my new website. :) I do believe I will be installing as mentioned, (K)Ubuntu desktop edition (Sorry Gnome, I <3>

Good news also today for all Bell/Telus users, as per the 2010 Winter Olympics, Bell and Telus is going to be implementing a new network to match and compete with fellow Wireless providers Rogers. (See Full Story here.) Also, while we're on the kick of News. Our fellow techs over at Usenet.com happened to lose their case today to the RIAA. :( (Full Story Here) 

As always for all tech related news, please see "Slashdot.org", IMHO the best IT/Tech website for news. :)

Until next time, so long children...
