Miro 4 hopes to fill Android's iTunes void
The open-source audio and video jukebox Miro debuts a new version that wants to be iTunes for Android. Miro 4 for Windows, Mac, and Linux, adds simple and effective desktop-to-Android synchronization to the program, which also offers media file conversion, torrent management, podcast catching, and media discovery. The Android syncing features focus on music and videos and includes built-in app browsing and management via in-program access to the Google Android Marketplace and the Amazon.com Android Marketplace.
We set the bar very high. We want to be the open iTunes,“ said Nicholas Reville, co-founder and executive director of the Participatory Culture Foundation, which publishes Miro and the Miro Video Converter, a separate program that also comes baked into the standard Miro.

Linux Mint 11 and Fedora 15
Fedora 15, or “Lovelock,” and Linux Mint 11, or “Katya,” both made their grand entrances onto the world stage in the past few days, giving users of the free and open source Linux operating system yet more compelling options to choose from.
[T]he final release of Fedora 15 launched […] to a global audience of fans eager to check out its implementation of the GNOME 3 desktop.
Linux Mint 11 “Katya” uses neither Unity nor GNOME 3; rather, the project developers chose to stick with GNOME 2.32 instead, providing a comfortable and familiar option for fans of that desktop environment.

Tiny PC Runs Linux
What is it? A fully functioning linux box the size of a USB stick. HDMI: check. USB: check (well, one port, anyway). 700MHz ARM11 processor with 128MB of memory: check. With storage available through an SD card slot, this thing has everything you could want in a computer (except maybe Wi-Fi; at the time of this writing I was unable to confirm networking), and you can carry it on your key-chain.
The Raspberry Pi Foundation […] expect to in many cases donate these computers through their foundation to interested and deserving students. There’s no catch, either, as its creators intend to sell the system for $25.
