A new browser based on chromium.

Should check this link. I dont know how much of this is true and how much it is an intrusion in our privacy.

Besides this if you want to try out a chromium based browser then can download the chromiium iron from the same page. I have not yet tested the browser myself but will certainly do that. It seems that I should read the full agreement before clicking "I Accept".

++EDIT++
A friend of mine sent this link.

So its not a problem anymore, The only thing remains is the default ON options for such things. I thing that while installing chrome, these options should be asked for. And for the iron chromium, they should tell how to disable these options.

unp : The universal de-compressor

For a person who spends a considerable amount of his time on computers, its really PITA to use different uncompress programs for wide variety of formats like zip, tar, gz etc etc available on the net. So when you download so many packages in so many formats, then just to uncompress them out, you try tar xvzf to find out that Oh! its not a gz archive. I found a better utilty for this purpose which works for almost all the tar/zip formats available. And its available on debian repo.

# aptitude install unp

And use it just like
$ unp x.gz
$ unp x.tar.gz
$ unp x.tgz
$ unp x.zip
$ unp x.bz2

So njoy!
