Shutter - Powerful Screenshot Tool for Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| GNOME has a basic screenshot application called gnome-screenshot, KDE has an 
| advanced one called KSnapshot, which includes options to take screenshots of 
| selected regions, fullscreen, or window under cursor, with or without a time 
| delay (for taking screenshots of menus for example). But neither one of them 
| compares to Shutter, a complex screenshot tool with many features, and the 
| possibility to edit and apply effects directly from within it.

The Linux screensaver xscreensaver

,----[ Quote ]
| There are over 200 collected screensavers in the collected xscreensaver 
| packages. You will most likely find a screensaver that suites your needs 
| here. No, you can not install that latest piece of work from the SyFy channel 
| or from E! magazine, but you can find plenty to use and they will do their 
| job well.

1 Year Ago: Amarok 1.4.10 Review [Oldies but Goldies] 

,----[ Quote ]
| Almost one year ago, on August 13, 2008, the last version of Amarok 1.4 for 
| KDE3 was released. Since Amarok 2 for KDE4 was launched, bringing a 
| completely redesigned interface and changing mostly all the major design 
| concepts, users of this great player divided into two groups, the ones who 
| still like 1.4 better and the ones who look forward for a complete Amarok 2.x 
| (which still lacks many features from the old 1.4).

8 Great Linux Apps Worth Bragging About, part 1

,----[ Quote ]
| There is such a wealth of great Free and Open Source software applications
| it's almost an embarrassment of riches, and we're going to look at 8 of them
| in this two-part series. Yes, we keep hearing the repetitive klaxon of the
| tireless FUDwagon: "Linux is no good because everyone needs Adobe Flash and
| Reader, Photoshop, and Games". I have news for those silly FUDsters: there is
| a whole galaxy of great software beyond silly old Adobe, Photoshop, and gory
| fragfest games.
