My tree, drew on iPhone

Drew on iPhone a few weeks ago on the train. It could be more fun to draw with iPad.

Ironic email, a joke by geeks in QQ?

April 26th, 2010 by Tkjune

Ironic Email

Most people know the Great Wall. And some may know there is another one, especially, Geeks. The picture is the screenshot of login page of QQ mail. So I'm thinking, are the geeks in QQ making a joke of it?

“Sep 14th, 1987, 21:07, the first email of China, sent from Beijing to German, said, Across the Great Wall we can reach every corner in the world."

And now may we say, How can we cross the Great F*ing Wall and reach...

WordPress auto upgrade in Mac local environment

April 17th, 2010 by Tkjune

When I test WordPress in local Mac OS X, the auto upgrade function is not available. It shows up like below:

Connection info needed

Here describes reasons and solution. But it doesn't work in my situation: Using XAMPP to set up the testing environment. Another solution were provided in comment 44 by Johan L. It works alright!

Do as follows:

 

To set up file ownership correctly:
In WP root directory
chown -R yourusername:apachegroupname *
In my case...
chown -R johan:apache *

find . -type d -exec chmod 770 {} ';'
find . -type f -exec chmod 660 {} ';'

WP 2.8: add
define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');
define('WP_TEMP_DIR', ABSPATH.'wp-content/tmp');
in wp-config.php
The function in file.php reads FS_METHOD and the tmp file creation test is never executed.
Make sure the wp-content/tmp directory exists and is writable by the apache user

Pre WP 2.8: well... you may need to patch the function in file.php by removing the if statement before $method='direct';
see comment #38 above
Only do this if you're sure you've setup file ownership correctly.

BTW the three numbers in chmod describe rights for "user", "group" and "others". read==4, write==2, execute==1. Sum of rights make up the number. Hence 777 means read, write and execute for user, group and others. 660 means read and write for user and group, no rights for others.

NEVER do a chmod 777 on any file or directory. NEVER recommend anyone to do it either!

Note that it's better to upgrade to 2.8 and above first.

The key is the two lines in wp-config.php.

Thanks Johan L.

Functions that I'm interested in iPhone OS 4

April 9th, 2010 by Tkjune

iPhone OS 4

Time 1:00am GMT+8. Apple reveal the iPhone OS 4 with many new features. So attractive cool ones are:

  • Bluetooth keyboard. When being at home, typing with REAL keyboard is enjoyable. and my iPhone stand has the reason to take a place on the desk then.
  • Multitasking! It makes a lot of features come true. And yes, Jobs played the trick again: Blamed multitasking in the very beginning and now makes it happen by Apple itself. 
  • VOIP. Skype can run in background and receive calls. Not sure if it's available in 3G network as previous rumor said. Hope for the best.

Besides above, there are more like iBooks (No wonder why stanza has been forced to remove the USB transfer function).

Same as before, a lot of figures were used to prove the improvement of Apple products and the whole business. 

iAd, the fist of Apple on mobile advertising market. It really hurts to the other ad OPs. iAd shows off the ad in a different way (well, first of all, you have to make contents special). iPhone not just benefit from hardware for long, and now this new business adds new value to Apple stocks.

For multitasking, no need to use a task manager to close the applications, means system takes care of it by itself. If it's working well, really user friendly. 

OS 4 comes this summer. 

Small changes in iTunes 9.1

April 1st, 2010 by Tkjune

Apple updated iTunes to 9.1 last night, said that added support for iPad. After upgrading, I did not find book store in iTunes Store. It should be released on the same day of releasing iPad on Apr. 3rd. There's still interface change. Audio Book changed to Book.

iPad, new hottest keyword in coming days

January 28th, 2010 by Tkjune

There's no doubt that this new stuff will make it the hottest keyword in the coming days - iPad. Hey good name is't it? While just changing a character of iPod, there's no better one.

No need to say too much about what it can do now - as so many rumors have been proven - this not-too-little gadget costs $499 for 16GB, WiFi, 9.7inch touch IPS screen, $599 for 32GB and $799 for 64GB. Use 3G to browse internet? $130 more for each model makes it true.

Ok. That's all for the show. Surprised and excited? Nah~~ that's ok. For me, it's cool enough, but I like my MacBook more. 

Plus, it must be the hottest stuff in Starbucks in the near future too.

You must know where to find it.

Update: Maybe I have to take my words back? It beats the photo frame, the game console, the book, and ... I'd say, who don't want one?
