<title><![CDATA[Ideal Desktop for Me]]></title>
<link>http://thelinuxbox.org/news.php?2011/10/24/ideal-desktop-for-me.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[As many people seem to feel the need to write articles about the perfect desktop as if it were some sort of <i>one size fits all</i> scenario, I decided I would rather write specifically about what I like (which is what everyone else does any way) but I wanted to be upfront about the limitations of this article. Also, as I have recently moved away from using GNOME, my preferred desktop set-up may offer some ideas to others that are contemplating making a desktop switch.]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[An Open Letter to the Libre Office Design Team]]></title>
<link>http://thelinuxbox.org/news.php?2011/02/21/an-open-letter-to-the-libre-office-design-team.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Libre Office is one of the most exciting forks currently in the open source world. I believe that statement so strongly that I have even put my money where my mouth is and financially contributed to this project. That said, I'm concerned they are preparing to perpetuate the same errors that OOo was making with respect to bad UI design and poor marketing.]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[Extending OpenOffice.org]]></title>
<link>http://thelinuxbox.org/news.php?2010/06/05/extending-openoffice-org.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Everyone has heard the old saying "lies, damn lies, and statistics", well statistically OpenOffice.org is used somewhere between 0.2% and 22% depending as to where you live. (these statistics can be found at <a href="http://www.webmasterpro.de/portal/news/2010/02/05/international-openoffice-market-shares.html">Webmasterpro.de</a>). This leaves a lot of people saying, "Huh?!?". So I will resolve to discuss OOo adoption anecdotally. The first class of pharmacy students I taught 4 years a go had never heard of OpenOffice.org prior to me using it for a presentation, but this past month (May 2010) I had several students email me their pharmacy law papers as ODTs. The reasons for this increased adoption could be due to multiple reasons such as alternatives being perceived as bloated, slow, and expensive or the increased number of students I have using alternative operating systems where OOo has a native port or maybe even the fact that they find their pharmacy professor so darn cool that they want to be just like him and run OOo as well. As biased as I am towards myself, I seriously doubt it's that last reason but I am seeing more and more OOo use. My intention with this article is not to proselytize OOo, but instead to show some good ways to extend the use of OOo.]]></description>

<link>http://thelinuxbox.org/news.php?2010/04/25/a-dozen-gnome-themes.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Now there are plenty of sites that have posted their top 10, top 16, top 25, even their top 50 themes for GNOME, but some how their lists always include the same designs over and over. The goal here is to look at some newer and/or forgotten themes, some interesting combinations fom preexisting themes, and some inclusions of original work to provide a reason to look at these themes.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[One of the coolest things about Firefox is its extensibility. Everyone has their collection of favorite Firefox add-ons and I thought I would share mine. Some provide improved organization, some have a certain "WOW!" factor, and others just look pretty. <br /><br />After you check out my list, I would also like to know which ones you use the most.]]></description>
