Contest: Get a free copy of WP Remix theme!
Christmas is coming and the WP-Remix creator released a contest to give a free copy of WP-Remix Theme.
This post is merely to enter the contest, since I don’t know much of this theme, but for the demo experience I can tell it should be well builted. And is quite a good “base” to start a simple site with WordPress as CMS.
“A Computer That Works With Google, Not Microsoft”
That was the title published in The New York Times online.
Shocked with this title I asked myself:
- “Did Google released a computer before my GPhone? WT*”.
This isn’t true, but it might be what the Google Team is thinking, or planned, for the future.
Following the NYTimes, Walmart started selling a $200 USD computer with the gOS pre-installed. The “Everex”(gPC) features a VIA C-7 1.5Ghz, 512MB RAM, and an 80GB hard drive.
But what is the gOS? – you might ask.
Somehow based on Ubuntu 7.10 this is a Linux operative System dressed up with Google. It is straight for the “usual computer user, that doesn’t understand much of Linux and Internet, but still want to give it a try”, or how the original site states – “beautiful desktop for normal people”.
I’m not as geek as I thought.
In fact I don’t consider myself as a geek. I just know stuff… and use Linux…
As I did you can yourself take this little quiz – here – to measure your geekness.
And my result:
26% Geek
Impressive!

I originaly saw this on some spanish blog, but the author didn’t know the source. I translated this to English, because it really deserves the laugh.
