The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Cups of Coffee. (a story forwarded to my mailbox)

Friday, January 12th, 2007

I usually don’t care about stuffs being forwarded to my public email accounts, but this one has got my attention. Please read carefully.

*The Mayonnaise Jar and 2 Cups of Coffee*

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

Check it out yourself. Also, lawsuit has already been filed by Cisco against Apple for the use of the name “iphone”. Details can be found here. The naming strategy of Apple always attracts massive attention, as the previous iPod Nano(been sued by Creative).


Firefox Extensions: Sage RSS Feed Reader.

Tuesday, January 9th, 2007

I have over dozens of blogs that I enjoy reading everyday. It can be a pain when I actually browse them one by one, thankfully we have something called RSS. It allows us to fetch excerpt of articles from different sites together, skimming through them, and click on your desired article title to view the full content. Some bloggers/webmasters prefer to deliver their feeds in full, some in excerpt.

Now, I’m going to recommend another Firefox extension, Sage. I like firefox extensions because most of them are very light weight. This sage extension is only 135kb. As usual, install it and restart your firefox browser. There is more to learn.

Cool or not?

You think about it.

Yeah, a post before bed time. Now this might be an offensive post, but I keep thinking about it. I’m a fast reader, I skim through words pretty fast, but this article “What’s wrong with Microsoft?”, has made me read slowly, and twice.

A quote for you here.

the biggest problem with Microsoft, is the users they create

This hits the nail on the head so hard, I can’t find a better way to describe the problem. Every now and then, you get spams. Where? In your mailbox, on websites you visit, in instant messages you get from messengers, almost EVERY Internet communication channels.
