High speed addictions

I've becoming addicted to the joy of high speed internet access. I've listened this morning the keynote of Steve Jobs at WWDC 2005. I'm still not sure it's a good idea to go for Intel. It's a win all/loose all decision. Maybe Apple will win his jeopardy and get a really good place in the market against MS, maybe he is going to break his neck. Even if some stuff irritate me, I really enjoy my Mac and I think MacOS X is one of the best OS for small computer (well, multiple desks of KDE or Gnome is still missing). I really hate when I must go back on a Win computer. In his keynote, Jobs talks about Podcasting. Even if I heard/read this word some times, I never care about it. Until now. Something big is happening right now : the 4th power start to be in the hand of ordinary people. The rein of the bullshit that CBS, CNN, Global, Quebecor, TQS, TVA and ad nauseam tries to sells us is now menaced. Because everybody can get a voice on the Internet. Websites, Blogs and WebRadios are just the tip of an iceberg that will break the actual media's Titanic. And Apple offer all the pieces for anyone to do it. Granted, they are just there to do money and maybe they don't really care if it's possible than left minded folks get a voice against right minded news media. Anyway, Podcasting is very interesting and should help more people to get into internet radio. I've listened some podshow, such as Adam Curry's Source Code.

I feel that I'm nearer of the Thing. Now, I'm moving to Ruby and Rails. I've got my blog and my flickr's website. I'm still behind. I don't have the money to get a high speed internet access and my own URL. But as soon as I get a well paid job, I plunge in it and I will rock the Casbah. For sure. I'm damn tired of all the shit that happens in the world. And my country is all fucked up with federal government stuck in a corner, some jerks in federal liberal party that fill their pockets with our money, and mindless, ballsless provincial government. My only hope is that Boisclair get the leadership of the PQ.

Anyway, with my Mac computer, some open source softwares and time, I can now create interesting stuff and expose it to the world. And I really enjoy it. Stay tuned...
