Just another nerd.
The Freedom from Religion Foundation has created quite a controversy with its atheist billboard campaigns, like this one,
Of course half the fun with these sorts of campaigns is getting people outraged at what is, frankly, a fairly tame message. The billboards are certainly no more confrontational or in-your-face than religious-themed billboards (though, in general, I find billboards to be an eyesore).
Nice project making a bookmark patterned on the face hugger from the Alien films.
EyeOS is an open source project to create a browser-based OS that you can host on your own server(s).
It is mainly written in PHP, XML, and Javascript. It acts as a platform for web applications written using the eyeos Toolkit. It includes a Desktop environment with 67 applications and system utilities. It is accessible by portable devices via its mobile front end. eyeos lets you upload your files and work with them no matter where you are. It contains applications like Word Processor, Address Book, PDF reader, and many more developed by the community.
It is already a fairly full-featured system, but there’s a nice roadmap for a January 2010 2.0 release that will include a nice-looking collaborative document editing feature among other things.
