AllPeers in Ubuntu Dapper #2
Today, in the morning, AllPeers has been upgraded to AllPeers Beta 0.40. I have not tested the issue of conflict to FoxyProxy yet buy I have tried to share my files and folders with my friends. The user interface is still too complicate in my opinion. It would be better to have tabular interface like eMule or something like that. Anyway, download speed is quite good even only one peer (me and my friend). However, as I mentioned above, thumbnail icon list is not efficient for large amount of shared files.

Result of Fighting back SPAM
It has been about 2 weeks since I turned on [spam v2][1] in this site to [fight back SPAM][2]. I just want to report the success of this action. After the installation, the module worked intelligently to unpublish lots of comment SPAMs everyday without any training for a few days. By the way, it turned out that SPAMers changed their patterns so the module could not classify them as SPAM correctly. So I manually marked 4 comments

Advanced Recording X Window and Audio via VNC
Now I know about ffmpeg with x11grab patch, xvidcap, and ScreenKast. From all these three alternatives, ScreenKast is the best one in feature comparison. By the way, it is totally based on KDE while my desktop is GNOME. I don't want to run KDE application in GNOME environment because I have to waste lots of main memory to hold 2 low-level desktop interface.

Open Source YouTube
Everyone knows what or is. Most of them might use to waste a period of time in this kind of service. I'm one of them. I also wonder how it works. Technically, upload video service like YouTube and Google Video is very similar in underlying technology. In particular, all uploaded videos are automatically converted to Flash Video or FLV. The FLVs are stored in the file server. However, the FLVs is nevered shown directly on your browser. Instead, the FLVs are played inside Flash Video Player written in Flash itself. As a result, you can view a video immediately after getting only some part of the full-length video. In other words, Flash Video Player and FLV are the best couple for on-demand video streaming.
If you think it is too complex and too difficult to implement XXXTube by yourself, I will summarize everything you need to know and to have.
- You need a Flash Video Player,
- Uploading system,
- Video conversion system,
- Big storage and

Let's markdown
If you have read my blog for a half year, you might notice that the update rate has slowed down for a month. The main reason is I switched to Ubuntu and I don't have [Post2Blog][1]. Post2Blog is very powerful and it helped me to blog as fast as I expect. In Ubuntu, I have [Performancing for Firefox][2] which is a cool stuff but not comparable to Post2Blog in any criteria. Today, I have just decided to
