Random thinking. I loved using Phoenix. It became Firebird, and it was still great. It became Firefox, and it was starting to become sluggish. Firefox 1.5 is the last I used before Opera released a version I felt comfortable with. (Opera 8, was it?) Recently, I tried Google Chrome for Linux, and I liked what I saw.

I’ve kept an eye open for development in plug computer technology, and I wonder if it’s almost there for my use. (more…)

Sometimes I like to reflect on where I’ve been and where I’m going at work. I’m not talking about any “greater scheme of things”, but rather how my programming is progressing. The book “Code Complete Second Edition“, by Steve McConnell, has me thinking about this again.

There are many options for buying a wig. Unfortunately, most online wig shops do not include photographs of any Cheonsang Cheonha dolls (Pullip, Namu, TaeYang, Dal, Byul) wearing the wig.
