It’s been crunch time at work. That implies 100% dedication to work, late working hours and excessive coffee intake. Tim Horton’s and Starbucks ought to have frequent drinker cards. In all, it’s been a rough three weeks, but I guess I’m content with the outcome of my latest creation. I won’t disclose it here for confidentiality reasons.
In other news, it was inspiring to read that Google snapped up YouTube for an incredible $1.65 billion USD in stock earlier this week. Based on the amount of traffic that YouTube generates, I can only speculate what Google intends to do with YouTube. I bet VC firm Sequoia Capital was very content with their ROI. All eyes are now on Yahoo, who may consider purchasing Facebook in the not too distant future.
Other than that, I’ve kept myself entertained during weekends by doing housework and catching a couple of flicks with Sukh: Employee of the Month and The Departed.
That’s all for now.

I think Google might eventually abandon the Google Videos project and use YouTube instead. Google Videos just isn’t as popular as YouTube. YouTube has a large following and also a large collection of stored videos — something that Google Video doesn’t have.

What do you think will happen of Google videos?

Do you do Linux consulting?
I’m looking for someone that could help me build Linux desktops (ultimately diskless thin clients) that would connect to a Windows 2003 Terminal Server using RDesktop and span a borderless desktop over at least two monitors.
I live where you live so if you are interested perhaps we could meet and talk.
