New site, Planet GNOME and LUGRadio Live

by | Wed 5 Jul 2006

Firstly, after my custom site punched me in the face one too many times, I have moved to WordPress. My old site was becoming a little too unwieldy, and the benefits of moving to WordPress outweighed the disadvantages. So, check out [archivedblog.jonobacon.com](https://archivedblog.jonobacon.com/) and its snazzy new design. 😛

Secondly, hello [Planet GNOME](https://planet.gnome.org/)!

Finally, [LUGRadio Live 2006](https://www.lugradio.org/live/2006/) is in a few weeks, and the excitement is hotting up. It was mentioned on [El Reg](https://www.regdeveloper.co.uk/2006/07/04/lugradio_returns/) and more and more people are blogging about it and getting all hot under the collar. Two days, over 40 talks, over 15 exhibitors and entirely driven by the community, and all for a fiver to boot. Its on the 22nd and 23rd July 2006 in Wolverhampton, England, and will be a blast!
