Nice huh…today been vising the nearby BMW showroom and saw the nice used BMW 320d M Sport Coupe, priced at £32000. After been shopping for a while, finally we decided to go for a £26000 Saloon version instead (exactly the same model and spec and colour and it’s a Nov 2007 car which done about 7000 miles). I crazyly paid the deposit and happily get home. After reach home leh, actually me and wife decided to go and cancel it tomorrow. Why? because we are going for honeymoon soon lah, so I am not going to put this nice new car in the driveway, and also, they trade in my 2 years old Honda Jazz 1.4SE for £7000 only which I found online I can sell it for £9500 instead. We are going to get this BMW when we back from honey moon in Japan. Wish me luck and show you all the actual photo when I buy it in July. Stay tuned!!!

Nice tutorial found on the PHP Books, now I know how to create Pretty URL for the websites or web applications I did ;)

Basically Pretty URL work like this, for example

original “About Us” web address: http://waterblowing.com/?t=1&a=23  (difficult to remember, right?)

after Pretty URL tweak: http://waterblowing.com/about-us  (it’s much better now ;) )

So, what is Apache and what is PHP/MySQL?

First, talk about PHP. This is a kind web programming language I learn about 3 years ago when I was working for a PC Motherboard company. Since that time my company got no professional website, so I start to selfstudy and learn how to make a nice professional corporate website (I work asregional sales manager, this did boost my sales). PHP is a dynamic web programming language, some sort looks like the C (which I don’t know, lol). The PHP originally stood for Personal Home Page and now the proper name is PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor.

MySQL is a open source SQL datase engine which work good with PHP and lots of resources online.

Apache is the web engine which turn a computer to serve websites, so when you type in http://waterblowing.com, the internet will bring you to my server and the Apache on server will translate the website and show on your internet browser, all this are done by Apache and it’s open source too ;~)

Time to work on, talk more later ;) ciao!!!

【準時收聽】

以广播电台作为题材的一首歌,透过电台的晚间节目,正好反映出都市人在娱乐满泻过后的空虚落寞或生活在重复模式的无奈麻木。
对于长期处于紧绷状态的城市人,听完这首歌感受特别贴身窝心。

Interesting! While I am dealing with my new SD Card today, I just saw that the “H” sign came out on my T-Mobile MDA Vario III (HTC Keiser / TyTn II)!!!

What does this “H” means? Oh ya, it means that HSDPA (High Speed 3G Network available in the area (which is my office room here). I used to get “3G” or “G” (GPRS, slowest) here and only can see the “H” sign in Central London.

Coolio mate, let me test the speed and post more!!! Ciao!!!
