Using Facebook XMPP chat on Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| The first step to recovery is to admit you 
| have a problem. Hi everyone, my name is 
| Alan and I do have a Facebook account. 
| There, done it. Feels better already.
| I donât use it that much, and frankly I 
| find it a little disturbing the way it 
| mixes up all your friends, family and work 
| contacts so they all talk to each other. 
| But this isnât a post about my insecurities 
| and paranoid delusions. No, it is a post 
| about Ubuntu and XMPP. Facebook now does 
| XMPP, which is an instant messaging 
| protocol also known as Jabber. It is the 
| same thing Google talk uses and the same 
| thing that the most awesome OLPC XO uses 
| for communication.

H.264 is royalty-free for Web use through 2015, but still not a good idea

,----[ Quote ]
| The MPEG LA (Licensing Authority) has 
| announced that H.264 licenses for free 
| internet video will be free until the end 
| of 2015. 
| 
| I still don't think it's a good idea to use 
| H.264 as the standard video codec on the 
| Web.
