Ubuntu has accessibility software that uses the webcam instead of a mouse...
I put that "Lenses from Icons" on brainstorm and blueprints. I just think it's going to get tedious to cycle through multiple lenses or memorize a bunch of keyboard shortcuts if the Dash is going to work.

The second one has a shortened url; I find this downright rude.
What are your views on the usage of masked shortened-urls?
Is it wrong to edit such content and replace the shortened url with the original one?
@jrg ok so I seriously want to start some Ubuntu specific development and I think a good starting point (as it holds interest to me) is something like these... techdrivein.com/2010/02/…
are screenlets a good idea? should I be starting with something else?
basically under windows my programming knowledge never really had to expand past c# and the .net framework.
I want to write applications for Ubuntu. I do not know much about programming but I want develop for Ubuntu. I am trying to learn Python right now. What do you think is the best way to develop apps for Ubuntu? Can you point me to some resources that can help me get started with developing for Ubu...
I haven't played with it extensively, but my understanding is its a project quickstarter that has a GUI designer (glade) and a few other related things for you
taken from the stand that I was a c# developer working solely with VS and .NET what would be the best starting point for me (something that would be similar enough that I would be comfortable with it)
What role(s) do(es) JavaScript play in Linux? Where and how can I execute it and for what purpose. For example: Windows does not have a JS parser so outside of the browser (and node, other implementations of v8, ect..) it does nothing.

I will start off by saying - my issue is very odd... and I really have no idea where to start searching. <- Wth are those 3 points making in the middle of the sentence???
And wht kind of person formats everything with <br /> but all the "I"'s are writen "i" >> /angry face

Also, I hated with a passion the fact they didn't use the PR screenshot package I put together for people like them when I was working on that project which is now to be never mentioned. :P
