I was looking for a random package to try out and because I was curious if there was a Flickr uploading tool in the repositories, I just had to search for one. It’s a Gnome-based app so it looks so nice with my Ubuntu desktop. :) The maintainer of this useful package is Robert […]

I didn’t really know that a blog called Deb a Day existed before. It surely is an interesting blog with lots of informative write-ups about various deb packages. Some of them you probably never heard of before!
