I was too excited to have a newly released ubuntu system installed on my machine 2 days ago. Seems there are too many defects since it’s too fresh.. I suffered from xp-blue-screen-like system crash several times..

The system does not change too much from 8.10 as I imagine. In my point of view, it’s becoming more and more fragile since version 7.

Should I go on with it or kill it?

– OK. He wins, I’ll keep it.

I found a severe bug when uploading an excel with rich-text content on cellular.

At this version I also enhance logs output that you can get more info if uploading fails.

You can download it using SVN or just the package.

Twitter is good for the people who’s getting tired for the ordinary life, I guess. The tedious blogging, facebook and other SNS stuffs always rob your brain. Maybe I just don’t need such a thing to keep tracking what I am doing.

After a trial of using RoR to develop a new website, I could really feel what and how they call Ruby is a programming language of please. It’s so easy to use and change people’s mind on development. I think the reason why RoR becomes a buzzword due to the contemporary client-side web development playing an important part of the development phrase. Technically speaking, RoR simplifies the boring process of website development: also according to DRY principle. Moreover, the build-in AJAX support is inspiring too.  

Have you ever seen the recently movie Red Cliff the 2nd episode directed by John Woo? It tells a story about Three Kingdom period of ancient China. One of the main actor in the movie is called ZhuGeLiang who is well-known and prestigious as a strategist as well as politician in Three Kingdom period. What he said I quoted “Life is colorful if you know everything a little”. That’s true. Back to the scene we just talking. RoR is a good technique that everyone is encouraged to learnt, not because it makes you happy, but also because it changes the way you gonna be happy.

What the…? My blog renew with a ugly face.. Because I think easy to read is most important, then the priority will be wide use, i mean the blog ought to be read by not only modern browsers but also handheld devices.
