Goosh: The Google Shell
by koenvereeken on Jun.04, 2008, under Fun, Tech
I discovered something very geeky, yet I like it
Goosh, the Google shell .. basically the same functionality as searching via the well known google web interface, but with the layout of a pseudo Unix-styled shell.
The first thing I typed in this shell was: lucky goosh,
which means “I’m feeling lucky and bring me to the first result of goosh”.

GPU supported Linux Flash Player
by koenvereeken on Jun.02, 2008, under Tech
It seems that Adobe is supporting various modes of GPU acceleration in their new pre-release of linux flash player 10. With previous releases, I found watching Flash movies (e.g. Youtube) very CPU intensive in Linux. My first impression with the new version is that this is slightly better.
On the Penguin SWF blog, you can more details about this pre-release.
