    Subject: KDE is coming along quite well
    http://lukeplant.me.uk/articles.php?id=3

    You can use dcop from the commandline to automate various KDE related tasks. This is the kind of desktop integration we need more of. The ability to use graphical apps yet still script them. This kind of thing has been available for a while but is really just starting to really catch on in KDE and GNOME on linux. It has been available to Windows for ever and OSX has their appletalk and automator interfaces.

    Subject: Blurring

    I wouldn't have gone about this problem the way he did. I would've used feature vectors and machine learning to characterize and classify the bitmaps (which he'll probably have to do). Though what I thought was great is he actually analyzed the problem and came up with a very novel solution (I doubt it works in all cases but still close enough).
