On October 14, we met with our teacher, Mrs. Wang, at Yang-Tsung restaurant. Below are some photos and movies I took.
Introduction of CC in Co-note
I took charge of the typesetting of the 9th ENT Co-note. It really was a huge work and took me almost one day to finish it. Customarily, if one typesets, he can insert some jokes or whatever he likes to the empty area between paragraphs. For me, it is not easy. I don’t like to insert those UNFUNNY jokes (we call them COLD jokes), but what should I choose.
After several days consideration, I decided to introduce the concept of Creative Commons to my classmates. I referred to a publication of Institute of Information Science Academia Sinica and wrote something in Chinese. I think, although it is not a classic in spreading CC, it may impact some of my classmates’ thought.
Reply of Selling Blood
This morning I received a email from a person who claimed he is a reader of my blog. He wanted to ask me about “selling blood.” I thought he may read this (zh-TW) and wanted me to gave some informations. First time, I replied him in Chinese, but just now, I received his reply. He said he couldn’t read my text. I found that he uses Yahoo! Mail service, which uses Big5 as default encoding, and I use Gmail, which uses UTF-8. So I guess it may be a problem of encoding and suggested him to try changing encoding while viewing. But I am not very sure it’ll work. So I still wrote another email in English. English works in all encodings. I Hope so. :p
YouTube vs Google Video
Yesterday, while I was browsing at Darkkiller’s personal BBS board, I found a site called YouTube that supplys video uploading and sharing. Then I registered an account, but didn’t try at once.
Just now I uploaded some videos of meeting with teacher yesterday. The procedure isn’t easier than Google Video, but the admin interface is better. I can easily find what I’ve uploaded and the “Tag” function is what I love most. Although there is limitation to the size of video for uploading (100 MB), maybe I won’t be restricted by this rule recently. (my SD card in the camera is only 128 MB.)
Now At Dan-Shuei
This afternoon, I rode on my bicycle, along the Taipei Bicycle Track, arrived Dan-Shuei at about 5:00 p.m. I even didn’t realize that I really got here, because this is the first time I come to Dan-Shuei via this way.
It’s nearly sunset. I stoped my bike, took some photos and walk along the Dan-Shuei River. There were a lot of people here, maybe because today is the National Day. I ate a lot of snacks, fruit with chocolate covering, Chou-Dou-Fu barbecue (碳烤臭豆腐), a string of baked mutton, the Ancient Rice (古早飯), and a large ice cream. I’m so satisfied with these food.
Now At QK Cafe
I’m now at QK Cafe, Tien-Mu store.
A few days ago, I saw an article by ijliao about his experience of QK cafe. He said that they offer free wireless service. For me, after buying the laptop, it’s a very important thing. And, many times I went to kilo‘s place, I saw a QK Cafe standing there, so I decided to come here for breakfast in a carefree morning. And, it is today.
