What it's all about . . .
June 13th, 2008 by marcel
Ever wonder why a guy like me writes all these articles, pens all these books, gives talks at trade shows, universities, or appears on radio and television. It's not the fame and glory (there isn't much anyhow). No, it's something entirely different.
I have a few more shirts, but I thought it best to stop when I did. -- Marcel

News Flash: Linux Kernel 3.0 to include an on-the-go Expresso machine interface! Ok, maybe not, but Linux is definitely going mobile, from phones to e-readers. Find out more inside about Android, the Kindle 2, the Western Digital MyBook II, The Bug, and Indamixx (a portable recording studio). And if you've gone mobile and you been wanting more Emacs in your life then check out Conkeror.
To compliment the mobile we've got the stationary: parsing command line options with getopt, checking your Ruby code with metric_fu, and building a secure Squid proxy. How is this stationary you ask? What can we say? It's not. We just wanted to see if anybody actually read this part of the page :) .
All this and more, and all you have to do is get your hot sweaty hands on the latest copy of Linux Journal.
thanks marcel!

Thanks for being consistently funny, informative, and always interesting. One of the few remaining bright spots in LJ. If all you need are a few t-shirts, I'll send you some myself!
Apologies in advance if I double-post- the first one got flagged as spam many hours ago and still hasn't appeared.
ps- the captcha sux. Too hard to read.

Your articles are about all that keep me buying LJ anymore. Keep up the great work, and if all you need to be happy is t-shirts, I'll send you some myself!
PS- no French accent?? I am so disillusioned!!

It's a chameleon. Interesting considering you changed your "colors" so frequently in the video.

Well, darn it all to heck! Don't I feel silly (this from the guy in that video [ insert appropriate smiley here ] ).
