Two stitches and sick leave

I’ve been given two stitches after underwent a minor-surgery to remove some fibroma / benign tumor tissue from my leg. Everything is ok for now, but the doctor told me that I need rest, and definitely no driving around for a couple of days. I’m very anxious to hear the results

Updates from me – mypapit

Fewh,

Been quite some time since I updated this blog. Here’s what happened to me since the last update:

  • Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) has been released
  • I’ve presented paper on Mobile Travel Guide and Location Aware App in Informatics 2009.
  • My WordPress Blog site has been hit by spammers/injectors, spent roughly one week to clean the mess up. WordPress sucks, updating it doesn’t help either
  • My server overloads for the 17th times last month, probably a sign that i’ve to upgrade my server
  • And yes, I’m still alive, though i’ve less and less time to blog interesting things now. Wonder why? Burnout?

So what about you?

The Latest buzz: Google Chrome

Looks like I’m the last person to write about Chrome, the latest browser from Google. This is because I do not own a Microsoft Windows machine to test Chrome early on.

I’m sure you can find a lot of great reviews floating around the internet about the latest lightweight browser, so I will not waste your time by rehashing those information here.

Chrome Application Shortcut

What actually caught my attention is the “Create Application Shortcut” found in Chrome, a functionality similar to Mozilla Prism which I’ve reviewed a while back in my blog. This would enable users to create Desktop shortcuts of their favorite Web Application without relying to external application like Prism anymore, everything can be done neatly within a single interface.

With Chrome, Javascript execution (read: ajax’ed website) felt a lot more faster while using much less memory, it looks like this new browser is going to give Mozilla a run for its money.

p/s: Eagerly waiting for Chrome to be available on GNU/Linux platforms.

Catch me on twitter

I finally decided to get on twitter since I’ve been rarely had the time to update my blog anymore. So for those who are interested to follow my daily updates can do so by following my twits (username: mypapit).

For the curious minds, my favorite twitter client are twim (Apache License 2.0) and twobile

Sporadic update….

Hey there guys, I know I havent been writing much. I’ve even missed the August month completely!, the thing is, I currently working on a project which demands most of my creative time, and by the time I’ve some free time to spare, I’ve already gone tired.

But rest assured, I’ll begin to make time again as I’ve already on the final phase of the research project. Be sure to remind me every now and then to write stuff around here!

Back to hands-on application development

I’m just informing you, my readers, that I’ve been busted back to application development work from a relatively administrative one. Rest assured, this is entirely my decision as I’m not currently under employment of any entity beside myself.

Now where’s my cup of coffee?
