On behalf of the Zeitgeist team I am proud to announce the release of
Zeitgeist 0.5.1.
What is Zeitgeist?
-------
Zeitgeist is a service which logs the users's activities and events,
anywhere from files opened to websites
visited and conversations, and makes this information readily
available for other applications to use. It is also
able to establish relationships between items based on similarity and
usage patterns.

to make it clearer when they are run. This change also brings in a few
