The Reality of Semantic Desktops: Death To Tags, Labels and Folders

By Kevin Kubasik on May 21, 2008

So, I recently saw some more updates on the Gnome Live wiki regarding the evolution of a ‘Semantic Desktop’. I have some bad news people: Its not going to happen. Now before everyone spends 20 minutes explaining all the ways it could, let me clarify my point. It’s a largely unattainable goal, which if it [...]

Back From PyCon, Break

By Kevin Kubasik on March 31, 2008

So I just returned from my massive onslaught of travel that started with PyCon, took me from one US coast to the other, a Carribean island, and then back home to Washington D.C. I’m on Spring Break for the rest of the week, and hope to  get some good blog posts in reguarding the awesomness [...]

Tomboy Hackfest: Part 2

By Kevin Kubasik on December 13, 2007

Alright! Some cool news! The Mono Hackfest at the Novell OSTC in Provo, Utah was a success ( I would say, people showed up and we talked about features )  And while I took several photos in the hope that I might have another photo-riffic blog post, but alas, my flash wasn’t on, and they [...]

Tomboy Hackfest Tonight at the Novell OSTC

By Kevin Kubasik on December 7, 2007

Well be hacking it up tonight at 6:00PM MST at the Novell Open Source Technology Center. The rough TODO for the night seems to be Tags, Tasks and maybe even a backend to query Beagle.   Anyways, if your in the greater Salt Lake City area, come on down! If your a little further away [...]

Mono 1.2.6 Memory Usage

By Kevin Kubasik on November 16, 2007

So, I’ve heard a lot of hype about the upcoming 1.2.6 release of Mono being faster, leaner, and more stable then ever before (due largely to Novell’s acquisition of a QA team dedicated to Mono). Beagle has always gotten flack over memory use, and as a result, we are relentless in our hunt for abused [...]

Banshee Ipod Playlist Support

By Kevin Kubasik on October 3, 2007

It looks like the monster might finally start to lay itself to rest. After almost 2 years, one of the most basic feature requests for Banshee looks like it will finally be fulfilled. I’m talking about playlist syncing to iPods. While there have been a plethora of patches in varying states of readiness always floating [...]

Building More Relationships in Beagle

By Kevin Kubasik on October 2, 2007

Today I checked in a few fun changes to Beagle today focused on the idea of emphasizing relationships between entities. It doesn’t sound like a whole lot of fun, but its kinda nifty. New Query Context Options Find Documents by same author. Find E-mails from same contact. Find Pages from same site. In addition (building [...]

Relationships in the Desktop – Relational Desktop Search and Beagle

By Kevin Kubasik on September 25, 2007

I’ve been working on and off on a writeup concerning the use of Beagle to build an intelligent ‘rank’ for desktop entities. Or, in short, a Ranking system (not unlike Page Rank or the like) to organize desktop search results by far more than just keyword/date. I know the writing sucks, and its not 100% [...]

Beagle Search Support in GtkFileChooser!

By Kevin Kubasik on May 4, 2007

Finally! Perhaps one of the last major features that Beagle needs to match Spotlight and Windows Live Search. Integration into every file choice made in the Gnome environment has long been a dream of mine, and a little less than a year ago, this bug was filed with hopes of making that dream a reality. [...]
