Software Spotlight:

SoX - the "swiss army knife of sound processing programs". SoX is a command line utility that can convert various formats of computer audio files in to other formats. It can also apply various effects to these sound files, and, as an added bonus, SoX can play and record audio files on most platforms. So if you need to combine audio, resample, extract portions of audio or just about anything else - SoX is a progream for you to check out.

Gaming on Linux

Trailer Trashers

One of the great aspects of gaming is it can give you a break from reality and even offer some silly ridiculous fun. That's where games like 'Trailer Trashers' comes in.

Now this game even though it has some cartoon-ish like graphics is mature theme with some of the cartoon violence so don't play it with your kids. However, it's a ridiculous premise with lots of fast paced actions to enjoy with your adult friends.
