Evince: Speed and Functionality Combined
,----[ Quote ]
| In the heterogeneous computing world of today,
| documents are encapsulated in a variety of
| formats, from the mundane PDF to the high-
| resolution tiffs needed in typography. To be able
| to view all of them you could use four or five
| different applications, or you could just employ
| Evince. GNOME users are probably well
| familiarized with this document viewer. Every
| time you click a PDF you downloaded from the web,
| it will start up and, in an instant, render the
| document for you to view.

| Another on-line backup service that uses rsync is rsync.net. It is a very
| popular service, primarily because of itâs support (i.e. engineers man the
| phones for the most part). Currently, rsync.net supports:
|
| * rsync/scp/sftp
|
| * unison
|
| * rdiff-backup
|
| * It also supports certain commands using ssh
|
| * You can mount the file system using sshfs

| GPG encryption in the process
|

My Perfect Backup Setup
,----[ Quote ]
| For a long time I relied on an external hard drive and Jungle Disk as my
| daily backup solution. This wasn't the most advanced backup setup, but it did
| the trick. Recently, however, I added a new device to my local network: a
| tiny Linux-based server with the silly name Bubba Two. Initially, I planned
| to use it for hosting my private wiki and testing LAMPP-based applications.

Mandriva's answer to Ubuntu One : Click'n' Backup
,----[ Quote ]
| There have been few misconceptions which have been cleared by developers :
| The software was meant to be released previous year but due to some
| difficulties they plan it to release with 2009.1 Spring , and they say they
| don't aim to UbuntuOne service which is pretty irrelevant ? Even if they
| initially didn't launch it to compete with Ubuntu One it doesn't make sense
| that it is not in competition with Ubuntu one and dropbox..and this service
| seems to be a good competitor to Ubuntu One and Rockbox ,.
