New Year's Resolutions 2010

Before the end of January, let me post my personal new year’s resolutions of 2010.

1. Take a day off on Wednesday
Means force me to focus on important tasks like writing important code.
2. Don’t studying English
To get something, should stop something. I don’t stop improving it but should not study. Just use, speak, write!
3. Blog more without thinking
Quality is important but need to try more and fail more to get better quality.
4. Write review posts of Movies/Animes
Should not always work. I need to use my time to refresh my brain.
5. Start video blogging
For me, speaking is more comfortable than writing. Buy a good camcoder.

New Personal Payment Methods May Change The World Economic Rules

This kind of products will make a new tech/business trend, I think. Currently we don’t have any tools to pay small amount of money each other except cash inside your pockets.

What kind of dream you can imagine with this brilliant concept?
Didn’t know but Jack Dorsey joined as co-founder. Sounds cool.

BE CAREFUL When You Remove Tags On Evernote

Evernote
Evernote

I’m using Evernote as my notes backup system and I trusted Evernote too much. OK, what happened?
I accidentaly removed important snapshot notes on Evernote client like this:
1. Browsed on a ToDo notebook
Step1
Step1

2. Clicked a blog tag to remove
Step2
Step2

3. Hit the delete key twice (Assidentaly I did like this)
4. Notification message appears
5. OK I know you mean ‘Are you sure you want to remove the tag?’, sure!
6. The ToDo notebook gone
There is no way to restore it even on the web interface. Can’t believe that Evernote doesn’t support a history back feature like Dropbox does. No need to pay for Dropbox to use that useful feature but on the other hand, I’m a paid premium user of Evernote!
Yes that was my fault and the worst thing was I didn’t stock snapshots for backup and realized that I should not put important files only on Evernote.

K-ON! and music

The latest animation called “K-ON!” created by The Kyoto Animation was pretty amazing. Can’t imagine how they can create that hi-quality animations. No wonder they’ve received respect from anime fans.

“K-ON!” was animation of high school students’ music life. Music is fun!

Switched to WordPress from MovableType

With Matt at WordPress Kansai

As promised with Matt, I did it finally and I’m testing with this post.

When I joined a WordCamp Kansai, I decided to switch but had to wait until this weekend to set up WordPress on my server.

WordCamp Kansai 2009 « messaliberty

Setting up WordPress itself was really easy and no boring steps. Cool. I’m blogging on WordPress here at messaliberty’s blog but installing and setting up process was very first expedience for me.

Switching was a bit hard. Had to fix some part of code, both of WordPress and MovableType. I wanna blog about how difficult to pull out all data from MovableType, though I’m tired now. Let me have a break.

Anyway, I need to say Thank You for Matt and all of WordPress community!
