Gnome In these days there has been much fuzzing about the new browsing with files organizing themselves with the help of meta data. Maybe you ask yourself "What have this to do with the spatial browsing in gnome and how can it improve the browsing?". That's what I did. As I see it, the gnome people have introduced the spatial browsing so we are used to it when this new browsing is coming to town. This is very intelligent move of the gnome people and will help us adopt faster to this. This is when the spatial browsing is really making sense. I hope you see this when you've read this article.

And I wonder why when I visit Paris and ask, "Parlez-vous l'anglais?" they always shoot me a dirty look. It's because assholes online constantly yell at article writers for not speaking English. And so when I go to Paris, they yell at me for not speaking French.

Give the guy a break.

Besides, it's not his job to edit his article. It's uhm, the editor's job. By definition, editors... edit...

I don't mind reading articles written by people who don't speak/write English too well as long as the content is good.

Not that the content of this article is so inspiring. This work is being done by the Storage/Beagle/Dashboard projects, as everyone has been pointing out. I only wish I had the time and knowledge to contribute to those projects, to get the work done faster. But I'm only a young computer hobbyist, not one of those "professional" 17-year-old Gnome hackers (did you know the writer of Muine is only 17? Sheesh. I feel old at 19, already past my prime... ;) )

Bottom line, respond to the article content, not the way it was written.
