Smalltalk leads to Squeak, the open source implementation, and through one if its main contributors (Alan Kay) leads to the Croquet Project. I don’t even know where to begin to describe this project. It’s an open and programmable 3D environment designed for communication and collaboration. Or something. You have to see it to believe it. And maybe not even then.

This is probably not going to be re-watched. I can’t remember it, and I have notes that say I didn’t like it.

Properly titled X-Men: The Last Stand

An interpretation of the story of Esther.

Fair at best. Seems horribly ‘biased’.

A web browser and file manager for KDE.

The KHTML rendering engine was made for it. Safari also uses that engine. It’s nice, but .. could be better. Has insane and not-customizable accesskeys.

Just noting it so I don’t accidentally re-watch it; it sucked.

A flash-based MP3 player. It was pretty good.

Oh my god, this movie is truly embarrassing. It’s chock full of unbelievable and misplaced wire-driven swordfights. It’s like a bad kung-fu flim with a budget and overdone music.
