Wish List

Wacom Tablet PL SeriesOkay missfaith, the Wacom Tablet is now on my wish list. I can really imagine what I can do with it, draw, write chinese characters, but most probably if I have it I would give it to Pearl, cuz she draws alot for her blog. Anyway…. I got a big wish list, mainly web design books which are ALL SO DARN EXPENSIVE, Latin Jazz import CDs by Astrud Gilberto, my own web server, networking environment in my house, my own house, I think I should stop here. That should be enough blurb to fill up the space on the left of the pix on the right.

EC203 Group Meeting

Had a 4 hour group meeting today with my other groupmates Alvin & Nobu. The groupwork is basically to recommend a computer network infrastructure for a fictitious software company. The network includes, LAN, WAN and Intrnet Access. For past week, it has been research and more research, and i learnt tons of stuff i always wanted to know, but was too lazy to find out.
 
IP Address Index is a website that contains all the assigned RFC 791 IP addresses.
 
Webopedia allows you to search technical terms such as TCP/IP, Router, Proxy Server, Firewall, etc…
 
VisualRoute Server is such a cool tool i stumbled upon. It provides a graphical traceroute from their server to any other network device you choose. Just type in a url and you will see where the site is located physically. Apparently nickpan.com is located in Broomfield Colorado.

Online Photo Album

PhotoPoint started charging, so i need to share my photos at other places. Google has a huge collection of links here, i would probably have to try them out one by one. The most important features would be (i) the ability to upload several files at a time (ii) a short url to link to the album and also (iii) the ability to thumbnails automatically.
