I've subscribed to the The Podcast recently actually. It's very good. * vim-full * Thunderbird and thunderbird-enigmail * Gnumeric and Abiword (not a fan of open office), also use google docs * xchat-gnome for IRC * postr for uploading photos to flickr * bzr for working on various projects > Firefox extensions * The delicious one * Firebug > Add data > > Pidgin logons - for msn > ssh keys - to let me logon to machines without passwords Ditto, but for jabber too. * gpg keys * screenrc (though maybe I should just use terminator for local use) * GDM theme * A photo of me for the gdm theme, and pidgin etc. I have to go and enable spatial nautilus, desktop_as_home_dir and single click open to feel at home too. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
