My new Scala 500
Arrived today. This one is redesigned with a different earpiece and it no longer requires a separate charger, as the power jack is built right in.
Intro to SLP
SLP (Service Location Protocol) is a network service discovery protocol, in the same vein as Bonjour, ZeroConf, UPnP, etc.
IBM developerWorks has a nice article which covers the basics of SLP and shows some example programs using an open-source implementation called OpenSLP.

FUSE/sshfs
FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) rocks. Case in point, sshfs. – It’s a filesystem client based on the SSH File Transfer Protocol. Since most SSH servers already support this protocol it is very easy to set up: i.e. on the server side there’s nothing to do. On the client side mounting the filesystem is as easy as logging into the server with ssh.
To set it up, just do this once:
$ sudo apt-get install sshfs $ sudo adduser yourlocalusername fuse (log out and back in so that it recognizes me as a member of the group "fuse")
Mounting is as easy as:
$ sshfs yourremoteusername@remotehost: mountpoint
To unmount:
$ fusermount -u mountpoint
Tip of the hat to Ubuntonista and of course Miklos Szeredi.
