Rocking Blogging: Rhythm Junction

Okay guys, You might have noticed, I have been spending a lot of time reading blog's. Today is no different, I stumbled upon this gem hosted on BlogSpot (the same as this blog), the blog is named Rhythm Junction, the author(s) seem to focus on rock music, namely bands like Iron Maiden, Black Sabbeth, Ozzy, Hendrix and Metallica (to name a few). It has a very user friendly layout, making it easy to track down what you're looking for. The author(s) has recently started posting more about general life, including a topic that I have been considering posting about myself, regarding the new trend of being paranoid of everything. So what say you head over to Rhythm Junction and check it out? :)

MPlayer > iTunes

Okay so I'll admit it, I'm not the most reliable blogger of all time, heh.
But for my return I've decided to post about MPlayer, well not so much MPlayer, but running it through terminal.
Over the last six months I have learnt a lot about Linux, I have switched to Ubuntu, become a contributor (programming, more on that in the future) and done extensive editing of system files without too much hazard. But one of the things that has stood out to me is how much use someone can make of the terminal, I now play all my music through terminal (MPlayer), edit system files (vi[m]), code (again, vi[m]), and various other things like configuring my wireless device (again, more on this in further posts).
So, lets get to it, whats so great about MPlayer through terminal? well, for one- No GUI, meaning less system load for people with slower PC's (such as myself, new computer in the next week, hooray!). Second of all, all the controls are extremely simple to remember, and i mean extremely simple.
If you wanna check out MPlayer, run:

sudo apt-get install mplayer

..and enjoy the simplicity!
