Not quite the final class post

Well it's been a great semester, and i plan to go out with a bang. Right now I will sum up my thoughts on Little Brother and talk about I-search.

Later in the finale post i will show you some video of my Ubuntu and Hackintosh Virtual Machines (i'm a geek... can't help it.), Finally tell you all the groups i work for and just what that mystery group was, and a lot more. I do not know what will become of this, If you all want to stick with me, i will keep this up as a linux blog, if not I may keep it up as archive.

Little Brother
Little Brother was an interesting read, while i could have done without the sexual scenes I do like when a book involving technology knows what it is talking about. I loved the fact it included a made up distro of linux and showed of one of the interesting features of linux, With some effort it can run on most anything (you really can install linux on an exbox and turn it into a computer, same was true for the PS3 via the "install other OS" option, i figure it is still possible but a little more annoying to do now. if not, a fix will be in the works.) and found odd perallels to it in knox county schools wondering if they should set up classroom cams to catch inappropriate conduct between teachers and student, the controversy of the full body scanners at the airport, and the recent american demonization of wikileaks.org,

I-Search
I had fun with the i-search though it cost me some sanity and is the reason this post is so damn late. I found it a nice diversion from the other project and my only regret is that i didn't do it sooner. NEVER PROCRASTINATE! I know this is to late to be useful but i have been so darn busy with finals and what-not. I still have a bit of the paper to finish so i will leave it at this.

STAY TUNED FOR THE BIG FINISH
