Installing Full Blin g theme on N900

I was going through the post : http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=46739
and found the theme quite intruging but not complete to the point where I can download the deb file and install it in /usr/share/theme/ dir with simple commands “apt-get” or at max just use mkdir command to create the dir and dump everything in that dir. So, I wrote this couple of bash one liners to copy the required files to my N900.

[php]
$file = ‘/var/chroot/home/content/02/6377202/html/wp/wp-content/uploads/copper_albums/Parks_Dubai/orig_DSC_5287.jpg’;
$exif = exif_read_data(“$file”, 0, true);
$key=”EXIF“;
$exif = exif_read_data(“$file”, “$key”);
echo “[table border=”1”]”;
//foreach ($exif as $key => $section) {
//similar_text($section, ‘EXIF’, $p);
//if ( $p == 0 )
//{
foreach ($exif as $name => $val) {
echo “[tr]”;
echo “$key.$name ”;
echo “$val ”;
echo “[/tr]”;
}
//}
//}
echo “[/table]”;
[/php]

Firefox 7.0 is the browser that I am currently using on my N900. Its pretty fast compared to its predecessors. Its not even in BETA and all you can get is the nightly build. For me, its okay, as I like playing with my systems and mobile. If that is okay with you read on….

Head over to the firefox nightly build website Firefox Nightly Builds. Go to the links for the mobile version and then select Maemo build and download it.. Copy the tar.bz2 file to your N900 or directly download it from the handset 🙂

Google+ – way to go for experinmenting.

Finally I got a invitations and was able to get into the Google+ today. Having been trying to do this for last couple of days, was quite anxious on how it is and how it fairs against Facebook and twitter.

First, heres a first look of the account:

Fast and bleeding edge Firefox.. version 7

Firefox 7.0 nightly builds have started and it seems to be quite fast. So, if you dont care about some sites not opening or once in a while your browser crashing, been using for 2 days on Windows , has not crashed so far and worked on all sites so far :), then you should install the Nightly build.

Head over to the nightly build site and install the appropriate build for your OS.

Another nice and feature rich alternative to Google Search

Some time back I had written a post on Scroogle. Scroogle is good, it provides privacy. But if you want more for your browsing experience, something that you thought was always missing in a lot of search engines, then there’s a better search engine and it is DuckDuckGo.
