KDE Utils: Falling in love all over again
,----[ Quote ]
| Today we're going to look at the little tools in KDE4, or at least some of
| them. There are far too many to be able to cover in one blog entry, and so
| I've decided to cover a few of the ones that I personally use and which have
| had visible improvements over their KDE3 counterparts.

Free/Open-source IRC/IM Software
,----[ Quote ]
| Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a form of real-time Internet chat or synchronous
| conferencing. It is mainly designed for group (many-to-many) communication in
| discussion forums called channels, but also allows one-to-one communication
| via private message and data transfers via Direct Client-to-Client.
| Meanwhile, Instant Messaging (IM) is a form of real-time communication
| between two or more people based on typed text. The text is conveyed via
| computers connected over a network such as the Internet.

| So I figured I'd do something about it by sharing with you how using KDE4 on
| a daily basis has been for me what can best be described as a process of
| falling in love all over again with various applications.

gwenview: falling in love all over again
,----[ Quote ]
| Obviously gwenview is not a replacement for something like digikam or
| kphotoalbum which have different (though related) use cases, but for quickly
| skipping through images and tidying them up ... gwenview is usually my first
| stop. Honestly, I can hardly bear to look at the KDE3 gwenview now, the
| improvement has been that drastic.

[Screenshots] Fedora 9 KDE Live Alpha
,----[ Quote ]
| With Fedora living on the front-line of Linux technologies, Fedora 9 Sulphur
| will be shipping with KDE 4.0 as opposed to holding off until KDE 4.1 with
| Fedora 10. With the release of Fedora 9 Alpha this morning, we've taken both
| the GNOME and KDE versions for a test spin. While this alpha release is
| shipping with KDE 4.0.0, and Fedora 9 final release will likely ship with KDE
| 4.0.3, this desktop LiveCD had worked out fairly well in our initial usage
| tests. For your viewing pleasure we've included some screenshots of Fedora 9
| KDE Live Alpha.
