After Updating my Dell Mini 9 to the alpha 3 release of Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala last night and running all the updates, I was treated to a completely new UI for netbook-launcher. It's still unstable, but personally I think its an improvement to the last version which is high praise considering I think the current UI of the Netbook Remix in 9.04 is the most usable netbook interface on the market today.

This is the first of many posts here at my new site. I've decided, with a little push from a good friend of mine, to create a personal web site for myself. Let me start by giving you a little background. I am a systems administrator and website designer by trade and I run an IT consulting firm called Fossit Solutions (www.fossitsolutions.com). Fossit is a pseudo-acronym which loosely stands for Free Open Source Software Information Technology and I believe that gives you a good idea about the area of IT that I focus on. Whenever possible I try to leverage open source technology because I believe commodity software should be free (as in beer and freedom).
I have been helped tremendously in the past by bloggers who post about setups and fixes for various open source technologies and that is what I plan to do here. As I work on new projects and try new software I will write about my experiences and hopefully the few people who happen by my humble little page can gain some information from it.
Thank you for visiting my site.
