[00:02] wb [00:08] johnc4510, now I think I might have to try it again [00:09] :) [00:09] it surprised me [00:10] set up and controls are a little different but nothing you can't pick up right off [00:12] ok, gotta run...later all [00:12] laters [01:19] * nhandler can't find the purpose in using such a client when he always has a web browser open [18:17] akgraner: so I had this thought this morning [18:18] akgraner: or more like I remembered something I didn't tell you [18:18] hehe [18:18] joey, I'm all ears - shoot [18:18] akgraner: The original intent of the Fridge, after some thinking by me, was NOT to be simply a news source. [18:19] I only started my googledoc yesterday to get the blueprint and wiki info organized [18:19] akgraner: it was really designed to be an information radiator. http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?InformationRadiator [18:20] * akgraner reads [18:20] akgraner: here's a picture http://theagileexecutive.com/2010/03/15/how-to-construct-a-great-information-radiator/ [18:21] akgraner: but because back in 2005 that was new thinking, I can only assume it was easier to just create a news hub [18:23] anyway, that's what I'd offer up as "Fridge v2" [18:23] joey, cool.. I'll process this information in just a few and tweak roadmap wiki and blueprint [18:24] and drop the links here and the mailing list :-) [18:27] akgraner: doing it on wordpress might be tricky but some ideas: a ticker that scans twitter & identi.ca for #ubuntu posts. a ticker that shows upcoming meetings in #ubuntu-meetings or similar [18:27] akgraner: a release countdown timer... in fact, a countdown timer for all alphas and betas [18:28] akgraner: a security exposure ticker or notice [18:28] joey, hehe your todo list is growing .... [18:28] :-D [18:28] those are cool ideas [18:28] did I mention how much I <3 wordpress [18:29] brainstorming is free :-) [18:35] that is true [18:46] akgraner: super, the Fridge's WP Lucid theme will be done ..... tomorrow ;-) [18:49] sweet!!!! [18:51] happy dance \o/ [19:25] akgraner: what's date for UWN 200 [19:25] seems the date is in flux for the fridge migration now [19:25] July 4th iirc [19:25] one sec let me look at my calendar [19:27] yep last week was 188 so counting forward the weekend of July 4th will be the 200th edition [19:28] k [19:44] akgraner: idea. WP version of Fridge = Fridge 2.0 Information radiator version of the fridge, if we can do it, 3.0 :-) [19:49] hmm - maybe we should just slap up a poll for both teams to vote on [19:52] I like information radiator - Ubuntu IR 2.0 or something cool
