I was having problems to send files through Blueman Bluetoth in (x) Ubuntu Karmic Koala 9.10.

To solve this problem, I only add the ppa repository of blueman, geting some latest version of it.

In karmic, the process of including this type of repository, now is easier. Only this steps to include and update:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:blueman/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

My bluetoth device is recognized in “lsusb” as:

lsusb
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)

Yes, is the cheaper usb bluetoth dongle. :D

The use of wikis in education

Following the twetts from #CasaDoSaber, I thought about how the teacher measure the participation of a student in a wiki. Have the number of revisions with the user have made changes… don’t look at the quantitative perspective but the qualitative one.

I will look again the wikis focused on education and see better these points.

Working on the Rails

Yeah :) working on “the Rails”. I am not talking about the framework (only), but a better perspective about a job and my career.

Have passed one month before I quit my fixed job.

In this time, I traveled to Brasilia a week and I studied a lot. :)

That is fine, now I am getting some jobs and looking for a full time career.

I am a good person and I am training to be a Javascript and Ruby ninja ;)

This is the first point, after started, I am always looking for new challenges (languages, environments, architectures, etc).

So, if you need a promising developer to do something and change the world ehehe, contact me :)
