Some people had problems with the upgrade from lenny to squeeze, so i decided to post the few lines that will take you safely to through the upgrade.

sed -i s/lenny/squeeze/ /etc/apt/sources.list
aptitude update
aptitude install linux-image-2.6-686
(the arch of your kernel may differ)

--- reboot ---

aptitude full-upgrade

I'm proud to announce that we pushed meshU live. The Android client is available through Android Market since monday morning and the iPhone client is submitted to apple. We got over 100 users the first 24 hours without even announcing the release. So i can't really wait till apple has reviewed the app. refresh...refresh...refresh...coffee...refresh...

The team behind atom (developer of hashcat and oclhashcat) did a really great job at the hash cracking contest of korelogic wich took place last weekend at the Defcon 2010 in Las Vegas. The contest started on Friday 09:00 PST and held the teams under pressure the next 48h. After the first day team hashcat submitted about 20k hashes and there force hurried far ahead each other team. They managed to keep the advance by showing much creativity and flexibility to get their 38576 points wich and leaded to the first place.

congrats team hashcat!

...with my mobile app meshU.

This app allows you to connect your facebook profile with your real time location. You can share your location and watch where your friends are and if there are poeple online near you.
The web client for browsers gets your geolocation through browser api (IP based, accuracy depends on your provider). That's just to give users without smartphones the ability to use it. You will be able to choose between privacy modes e.g. public, friends, private (select who should see your location). The backend is at a matured beta stage, the mobile clients for iphone, android and windows mobile are in work and should be ready soon.
If you want to try it, you will in first place just see yourself on the map unless one of your friends will use it as well.

Update:

went live with the web client: http://www.go-meshu.com.
