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.
So Many Co-notes
I’d just read the co-note of neurology, neuro-ophthalmology part. It took me 2 days to finish, and I don’t think that I can thoroughly understand the content. I’m confused with all the neural pathways, and I’m so worried that in the future, the condition will get worse.
Unlike the courses in the 4th grade, now they are all 2-hour course, and it basically means that there are double contents in one co-note, and I have to spend almostly double time to digest. But compare with the 4th grade, I have less time to study after school, and there are more and more co-notes waiting for me. Eventually, I realize that the life of 5th grade will getting harder and harder from now on. T_T

Embed XHTML-validated Flash Movie
A few day ago, I tried to embed a flash about sasimi and Tzu-jiun in Hsien-Chih’s blog, but the syntax seemed not be validated by W3C. I don’t like this to happen and googled some information to solve it. After consulting this page, I changed the code to:
<object width="400" height="327" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="swf_url">
<param name="movie" value="swf_url" />
</object>
And this works correctly in IE, Firefox, and Opera.
Take a note, and I think I’ll need it in the future.
