I wish that I had Jessie's girl...

Rick Springfield had a great hit with a song called Jessie's Girl and the same track is now used for the Nokia N9 teaser ad which popped up a couple of days ago.

I really hope this is a MeeGo device, or to be honest, I just hope it's a Linux + Qt/QtQuick enabled device with some MeeGo compliance.

I've had quite a lot of fun with QtQuick lately (both for desktop and my N8) and I really enjoy using it. It just open so much possibilities and lets you be creative.

Another thing that would be awesome is if Nokia actually puts PySide, the Nokia sponsored Qt-bindings for Python, on the handset. Having Python as a rapid back-end language combined with QtQuick for the view is just too sweet :)

Grr... I hate not knowing, but I just have to wait and see.

Tips! Kdenlive - A great video editor

I've just started to take a look on how to editing videos and was searching the net to find some tools for Linux.

After trying a couple I found out about the KDE application Kdenlive from some blog post and I must say that this tools looks very promising. It did crash once when I tried it out but I can live with that since I'm not a heavy user of video editing. I just need something for creating youtube videos occasionally.

In addition to the great app there's also a bunch of video tutorials here to help you getting started.

So if you're in the same position as me I think you should take a look at Kdenlive
