Well, my backache hasn’t fully healed yet but I can’t wait for weeks long before I get to ride my new hybrid bicycle for the first time (The same darn bicycle that made me hurt my back a while ago). Ignoring my physiotherapist’s strict orders, I decided to ride it last weekend.
I wanted a speedometer mount [...]

Apparently there’s this nifty method to access every single settings in my Windows 7. It is called God Mode

Create a new folder on the desktop
Name the  folder as GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
The folder icon will change into a Control Panel icon.
Click into it to access every available settings from A to Z

I found out this little feature from G+ [...]

It’s Friday and I’d loved to see no dramas until the end of the TGIF day. But nooo, something came up the moment I sat down in front of my office desk. For years, I’ve never had a problem with Dreamweaver before. One typical day, boom! I got a weird error prompt when I tried to open [...]

This is an interesting discovery. I usually install an app to screen capture my Android mobile or use the app that comes with Cyanogenmod. Apparently the Samsung Galaxy S2 has its own built in screen capture application; hence no need to install additional apps or root it.
All it needs is just the Home button and Power [...]

I’ve been patronising eBay for years and of all the purchases I’ve made outside the shores of Australia, this particular instance really made my day. After going through all the purchasing process from eBay, I received a confirmation email of my order and later on an item tracking email. Now, the latter is pretty normal to have, depending [...]

Just upgraded my old dinosaur MSN Messenger to Live Messenger 2011. Probably it is a good thing too. Chat dialogue boxes are tabbed now, cutting down my number of windows per contact. Also I can share video links to my contact and automatically embeds it in the chat box. Nice!
A gripe for me is that [...]

(Pardon my shot. My Motorola Milestone camera is not something worthy to brag about)
It’s pretty frustrating especially for a newbie like me who do not know how to judge a picture preview via the camera LCD or reading the histogram. So I always ended up realising of bad photo capturing only when I got home, [...]

I tried to upgrade my WordPress from 3.1 to 3.1.2 via the WordPress Automatic Upgrade (WPAU) plugin but somewhere in between updating the core files and switching to maintenance mode, an error popped up. Sigh.
I guess I have to upgrade it through the manual way and it’s a pain. Will do it when I have [...]

That’s a lot of hours spent to create the worlds of Studio Ghibli with Minecraft!

Some time ago, I rooted and upgraded my old Motorola Milestone to CyanogenMod 7 (Gingerbread). The process was so tedious I almost cried after hours spent on finding a possible/plausible method to work. One evening on a dinner table, my mate told me about upgrading the Samsung Galaxy S (not mine, my girlfriend’s) and how it [...]

As I’m being employed to an organisation for a long period of time, there is always room for personal/work development. Over time, new things appear and you’ll start in pursuit for such new technology and skills. Something to improve one’s skillset or work knowledge so that oneself can improve one’s contributions to an organisation. Having [...]

It has been a while since I upgraded my Motorola Milestone from its stock Android to a community mod Cyanogen. I must admit rooting it and run Gingerbread (ver 2.3) does open up my mobile performance and range of apps to play with.
Alas, not everything is perfect. The mod OS drains my battery faster than [...]

WordPress is updating its release faster than I can update! As of now, the lastest is version 3.1.2.
It’s a good thing the recent WordPress provides an automated upgrade of a defunct version to a new one. I remember those days I had to turn off each plugin one by one before I FTP’d the latest [...]

One of many frustrations we IT professionals have to face is miscommunication or misinformation. The outcome has a ripple effect; small insignificant misiplaced information will tend to produce a big crack in the project. It gets worse if the crack starts from the begining of the project life cycle. And yours truly have the honour to experience such eventful moments [...]

Update (4th April 2011): Found out that the mod is draining my battery as fast as within a day! There’s a fix on this and I’m going to try it out.
Installing a custom rom for an android mobile phone is quite a challenging move for me. It took a while for yours truly to take [...]
