I've been looking around online checking out some cool applications that I could load up to my system. google recently released picasa 2 for linux, I found that out on my ultra cool customized google start page. I thought that was really cool, since picasa is one of the best applications out there for photo editing and viewing, and it has a really cool and sleek user interface, of course thats just my own opinion. Its not like I've ever really used a mac. Maybe one day when I'm older and am a lead programmer for some cool company, I'll buy a mac just for the the heck of it. From what i've heard and seen they are really cool. I'm totally ready to pick up a book and start learning to do all the things you can do with a mac in linux... I mean... you can do them all right... for the most part. Well anyways, linux isn't for everybody, at least not yet. In my own humble opinion, It needs to remain in for a power user, not for some grandma who hasn't touched a computer. They should just stick to winblows.

I got real player 10 for linux, compared to amarok and xmms it was really lame. I'll admit, I had my hopes up for realplayer 10, I figured it would be just like the windows version. The only thing it *could* do was play movies and music. It had nothing like album art, or any of the organizational features that a good media player would need.
