<p>This post documents a <em>failed</em> attempt to build openqwaq for ubuntu. I got far enough for it to be of value for anyone else who attempts this and <em>perhaps</em> you will get different and better results. Skip down to the last paragraphs if you just want to understand at what point the attempt failed.</p>

    <p>As a practitioner and dreamer I recognise Kahil Gibran’s identification “work is love made visible” (). I am still attempting to understand how and how much academic work embodies this idea.</p>

    <h1 id="notebook_is_going">Notebook is Going!</h1>

<p>The shocking news is that Google notebook is going tomorrow and do not have a replacement. Each notebook is going to be exported to Google Docs but the really strange thing is that when the export happens each of the notes looses the date and time that it was created. To my mind this is incredible. If I just wanted some text I would have kept it in a document in the fist place. Surely the whole point of a notebook is to record when you were thinking all of the small things!</p>

    <h2 id="i_only_wanted_a_simple_blog">I only wanted a simple blog</h2>

<p>I suppose that it is quite typical. I set out to start a simple blog to write about the many interesting things that I get involved with. Simple - go to <a href="http://wordpress.com">wordpress.com</a> and voilà! A Blog! Great, but I was going to be putting quite a number of code excerpts into the posts and wanted to be sure that syntax highlighting in multiple languages would work. It’s easy with a wordpress plugin but less so on wordpress.com as it does not support custom css/html in the template. According to <a href="http://heisencoder.net/2009/01/adding-syntax-highlighting-to-blogger.html">this great guide</a> to syntax highlighting in blogger <a href="http://www.blogger.com">Blogger</a> does support editing the template HTML and so I created a blog there as well to compare the two.</p>
