intersting things happening around Jaiku

Checking Jaiku this morning, it seems that a couple of potentially significant things have happened over the last 24 hours.

First @lemonad puts up a post announcing that he is looking at getting the Mdot version back up and running.

And then I see @jyri's announcement of a 20% project that has the potential to solve the feed fetching problem, and thereby allow feed fetching back into Jaiku.
Check the FAQ (that is linked in the comments) for what problem this is designed to solve.

Also, by checking the #Jaikuengine channel you can stay (sort of) upto date with whats happening with the development of Jaiku.
The Bug tracker is here while there is a seperate code review tool here.

Videos and memes i helped friends discover over the xmas break

So as i was traveling around the UK visiting various friends and catching up with them in real life, i was telling them about various things that i had seen via various places on the internet.

Everyone seemed to enjoy them, so i thought i would gather them all together here in one place.

Silly ones:

Numa Numa guy
Leave Britney alone
Chocloate rain song
Baby Panda Sneezing
fat cat fail

Interesting ones

Money as debt, very interesting/scary explanation of how the banks work
where the hell is matt, view the three videos and read the FAQ.

I also showed Spotify to a few people. This post is a good explanation of how it works

In other news, I also attended my first Tuttle club meeting, and had some very interesting conversations (and geeked out a little :)
