About Me

I'm a Sri Lankan, mechanical engineering student studying in Swinburne University of Technology, Australia. Although messing with mechanical stuff is my favourite past time I do spend quite some time messing around with PC's as well. I started messing around with ubuntu about a year back so I thought of making this blog and adding whatever I learnt so that newbies like me can hopefully pick up a thing or two. Please take note that most things i write on the blogs are what I picked up from the internet (I'll try to add the sources whenever possible) or what I learnt by trial and error. I am always willing to learn so please give your comments. Being decent while commenting wouldn't hurt :D

Miro - Watch your favourite TV show at the time you want!

Miro is a video podcast down-loader which can be used to watch your favorite TV show. Its an awesome software where you can watch almost anything you like at your own time. Unlike classic TV you don't need to be free at a particular time. Because its already downloaded you can pause, fast forward, basically do anything you want with it.Watch this video for more details.

If you want more RSS feeds please check www.ezrss.com
If you want to add a program from ezrss just click on the program(eg: Heroes) and right click on the small rss button that is shown on the new page that loads and select copy link.
When you go to Miro click on Add Feed on Sidebar and it most probably should be there already. Create your feed and rename it to whatever you like by right clicking on the feed on the sidebar again.
Give it a try....you won't regret it;)

Customize your terminal

Lets face it...the standard terminal looks pretty ordinary when it pops up. Here's a small video I made to make it look better. Hope you like it. Enjoy.
