FRC, Ubuntu 12.10, and Soundcloud

Hey guys!

Sorry about the delay... I have been very busy with robots, scouts and school... :)

Okay... First thing first: FRC

If you don't know what the competition is this year, here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itHNW2OFr4Y

Update(s):
We got the shooter working... Here's a video on that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=OxBH23AM76M :P

We are still working on the climbing arm... We are pretty sure that we'll get it done before the competition...

Info:
The competition will be at the centurylink field event center.

Dates for the competition are the 28th thru the 30th of March.

Hope you go!

Next up: Ubuntu 12.10

If you didn't know before, Ubuntu is an adoption of GNOME which in turn is part of the overall Linux family.

Here's the main website: http://www.ubuntu.com/

Linux is an opensource OS... Which means anyone can edit it... For example: iOS is a non-opensource OS, Android is one.

Here's a photo of the desktop environment on the Linux part on my computer:
I usually have the task-bar hidden, which looks like this:
Over all (from a windows xp user... :P) this OS is awesome!!! Sure... I miss some of the programs I had on xp... But, overall this isn't to shabby!

From what I know it's compatible with most pc hardware... :)

Would I recommend it? Total and complete YES!!! If you are confused on some things in ubuntu or want to install ubuntu... Google it!!! :P


And last, but not least: Soundcloud!!!

Soundcloud is a music discovery and social website for the music creators and enthusiasts(like me... :P).

It's very simple to use and has some free music downloads... If you want to check out the song that I think are good, here's a link: https://soundcloud.com/robotob46

That's it for soundcloud... As I said... Very simple... :)

Thanks for all your support by visiting this website and reading the articles!!! :)
