I signed up late for BarCampRDU and I am pleased to say I am off the wait list and will be attending the un-conference. If you are not familiar with an un-conference, you can read about it here. I am looking forward to the event although I had kind of given up on it since I was number 31 on the wait list at one point. Hopefully, I will have some good information to blog about afterward.

It keeps track of what I have read and updates when there are new articles.

"I barely smell my feet" (a boy nearby)
"look how full my shoes are" (another boy in the sandbox)
"don't bury your shoes" (the boy's mother)
These were just too funny and I had to write about them.

I have definitely become a Mac person, but after reading this story on Slashdot, I think I should give Ubuntu a try. I would also like to try a few of these applications as well. Of course, I would miss at least one application.
