I have enable mobile view of my blogger blog

I just enable mobile view of my blogger blog 'netgator.blogspot.com'. You also can enable this on your blogspot blog easily. Look at the image right side of this post. This is my 'NetGator' blog's snapshot but quite different in view and arrangement. Yes, this is called mobile view. If you have a smarter mobile phone (modern mobile device powered by latest mobile operating system) then you can see my blog in this style. You can view it when you have no desktop pc/ laptop/ netbook in your hand. Say, you are visiting country side by bus or foot or hiking a mountain. In this kind of abnormal place (where you can not use desktop/ laptop/ netbook) a smartphone can feed your blogsite reading hungry.

Do you have a blogger/ blogspot blog? Want to enable mobile view on your blog?

By the way I have not any smartphone. So I can not check the actual view of my blog. I publish the screenshot taken from 'Mobile Preview' option.

Free BSD OS magazine -pdf download

I wrote about Free Linux Magazine to Download. I think now you will learn more from reading offline. I suggest you to share those linux magazines pdf files with your friends sharing them by pen drive. Download 'Full Circle' and 'PCLinuxOS' magazine and copy them on a usb stick and bring them to your class room, office, work place and paste the pdf files on their pc (getting their permission). They will learn and feel attraction to linux more.

Actually I have not use it anytime. Download, run on virtual maching and taste it. If you know linux application then you can find some known (same) programs on the BSD magazine. On Gnome desktop you can find common application same as other linux distribution.

Free Linux Magazine to Download

There is no much Linux magazine available online to download free. After searching online I found only two great linux magazine which I should share with you. First I should say something about famous 'Full Curcle' magazine.

Full Curcle Magazine:
This magazine write only for Ubuntu operating system. It published on every months last week. In every issue they focus on various subject related to Ubuntu OS. They have some regular topic for every month. Each month full circle magazine publish interviews with LoCo, MOTU or Translation Team members, 'Command & Conquer' try to explain command based activity, 'Ubuntu Women' chapter introduce a new linux user women (actually Ubuntu user) regularly, 'Linux Lab' taste various linux with older or newer hardware, 'Ubuntu Games' bring us to the world of Ubuntu games. Another regular sections are 'Letters', 'Editorial' etc. You can download latest and older released pdf format magazine in 'Full Circle' site. Sometimes it published special edition on interesting subject like 'Programming in Python', Games etc. You can grab them all in the same download page.

Visit 'Full Circle Download' page and grab a valuable, informative pdf copy of this amazing free linux pdf ebook like magazine every month.

PC Linux OS magazine:This is an another regular publication of Linux magazine. I think this is also very informative and die heart reading experience of linux lovers. It also publish on every month. They cover many kind of topic on their magazine. They like to publish some tutorial like essay. I gained a lot of knowledge on E-17, Scribus and LXDE from this colorful online free pdf linux magazine. Their 'Screen-shot Gallery' is very attractive section I like. They also publish 'Editorial' and 'Ladies on PCLinuxOS' every month.

The PCLinuxOS magazine also published some special edition titled:

• KDE 3.5 User Guide
• KDE 4 SC Special Edition
• Command Line Interface Intro Special Edition
• Gtk Lightweight Desktops: Xfce & LXDE S.E.

Colorful and interesting cover is their another attraction. Download all pclinuxos magazine (from first issue) from PCLinuxOS Magazine PDF Download page.

I like the style and effort beyond this two popular free down-loadable pdf magazine. I wish their success and more popularity. I promise, if I would able to improve my English, then I will publish review (from my point of view) of these magazine every month.

Have not download Ubuntu 11.04

I have not download Ubuntu 11.04, because I have not feel any attraction to this newer release. The main reason is Unity desktop.

From years I have download some netbook edition linux releases and test them on virtual machine and live mode. None of them give me any pleasure of using Gnome. Yes, I don't owe any Netbook computer. But I did not feel problem to understand Unity. I download and tried various netbook based linux distributions like 'Moblin', 'EasyPeasy', 'Meego', 'Ubuntu netbook remix', 'Jolycloud' etc. None of them satisfy me in any way. Though they all are like Unity2d but the main reason is the desktop usability. I like to keep my desktop clean. I always add less shortcut on my desktop. This is my common habit since windows 95. And the boring thing is on Unity desktop or populer netbook OS desktops are full of icon (application link shortcut) on desktop area. Sometimes it is hard for me to find any current downloaded pdf file which is saved on desktop. Even on some OS I can not access desktop by mouse. I can't touch any file which is saved recently on desktop. On Unity a very disturbing thing is left side pane. This is quite extra width then Gnome bottom (or top) panel. So it takes more space. I don't understand why Ubuntu developers don't understand this kind of simple thing. If they like to add regular using application links in-front of hand then they could use drawer like thing. It should have a hide button, so I can use more space when drawing a picture and I need larger area.

There are another main reason not to download or taste Ubuntu 11.04. I read many forum/ blog post/ mailing lists mail that Unity is quite modern hardware hungry. I have not much ability to buy a newer hardware.

I know Ubuntu developers will not understand money weakness of me or me like users. Because their target is not to make a lighter linux. There are many other option for lighter hardware user. They should use Light Linux not Ubuntu main distribution/ addition. They can use Lubuntu or Peppermint or AntiX or any LXDE based operating system.

Some Literary theory and analysis books

I think I should collect some name of literary theory and analysis book. I read a famous forum post about this topic. I found a great list of literary critic books written by great authors. This is not a list of modern day literary theory or writing or analysis or criticism. I had not heard about these great books. Is it a classic book list? I don't know. After reading the full page, sadly I found that I have not read any of the books below. Actually my English reading experience is very poor. I did not read much English or another European language books. I wish if I get any chance to collect hardcopy or softcopy (Free download) of any of the books, I can learn a new thing and gather some further knowledge. By the way, as like modern technology I also love literature. I believe reading is not my hobby, reading is a part of my life.
