This is a collection of Top 10 Conky designs in a random order, that I really like. Something a bit different from the basic setup.

Conky is a free light-weight system monitor for Linux and BSD. It displays all the information right on your desktop. Memory usage, CPU usage, network monitoring, disk storage, weather data – these are only some of the features Conky is capable of monitoring.

To get the best from your desktop the best way would be to integrate Conky with your overall desktop, especially wallpaper.

So what’s the best solution to enjoy all the powerful features of a new release? Is a clean install better than a simple upgrade? In this article we’ll be trying to find an answer to these questions that seem to arise every time a new release comes out.

Hello dear readers!

I am more than happy to announce that some improvements are made to OnlineBlogger.

Sidebar

As some of you may remember previously the sidebar consisted of several sections. Categories, archive etc were all in their own little “boxes”. Now I’ve put all the sections in one large “box”. I’ve also added Popular Posts widget and I’m also planning on adding Top Commenters widget to it.

Also the ability to subscribe to the RSS Feed is in the top of the sidebar making it a bit easier to subscribe.

Comments

Secondly you can now reply to comments so that it shows up underneath the original comment.

I hated that when you clicked on the Reply link the page was refreshed and focused on the commenting form. So I decided to tweak it a bit. Now you are smoothly scrolled to the form without refreshing the page. A small thing but I quite like it – don’t you?

CommentLuv

After some consideration I decided to add CommentLuv to OnlineBlogger. After seeing this wonderful plugin on some blogs I started to like it and wanted my readers to use it also on this blog.

Design improvements

A few more icons/images added to the sprite system to reduce load times. New style for comments, responding, trackbacks headings which should suit better with the overall design. I also made some placement changes for the responding form. And then of course made the corners round – it seems I’m quite obsessed by it.

I hope you guys like these new improvements and if you have any suggestions I would definitely like to hear them. And also all your thoughts and comments about these changes are more than welcome.

By now most of Ubuntu users should already have heard about the release of Ubuntu Karmic Koala (9.10) released a few days ago. To be honest I had the date marked in my calendar for a long time with a countdown and I believe I wasn’t the only one. Actually I couldn’t even wait for the official release and downloaded the alpha a few hours earlier.
