Whoohoo, what a great time to be alive, ain’t it?

Orca’s spreading the news as she received them from ZZ Foneco Bottom. Had no idea about what to blog today so I reduced my blog activities to being just a news aggregator. Can’t be original all the time sadly. But luckily I got “my people” doing that for me. 😉

Newness one: Inara Pey reports about no more VAT on Premium membership fees! Effective immediately. Oh, and also the monthly fee is reduced from 9.95 to incredibly cheap 9.50 US$. Woah, big savings. 😉 Read all about the new dealio directly from Linden Lab’s site.

Second newness is a bit more specific and only interesting for when you are a Cricket fan on any sort of Ubuntu based Linux. I guess this mostly includes SAfricans, Kiwis, Ozzies, Brits (incl. Windies, Scots and Wales), Indian Indians, Pakis and Froggies. Americans need not apply. 😉 It’s F.O.S.S.‘s Abhishek Prakash found a way to show Cricket scores with an applet on Ubuntu panel. No need to check various websites anymore. This is pretty cool and fast info, just as fans of this dynamic sport like it.
