I haven't been much to most of the airports mentioned apart from Polonia, Medan and Soekarno Hatta, Jakarta (and perhaps Ngurah Rai, Denpasar once in 2001).

Rather disappointed not seeing the standards set for the awards, but I wonder how Polonia could have got that point; knowing that it wasn't even clean (at least not when I was there last month sending my friends to the airport). Is it clean now? or the is it the standard being set by government? -_-

Sorry for the absence, I'm back for now ^_^

Picasa on Facebook

I've been using Picasa for years and since I've been in Facebook for the last few weeks, I've been wondering if I can simply upload my photos using Picasa. A simple google gave a direct answer. ^_^

Try it out here.

True Worshippers CD

Remember the Ruth Sahayana CD? It turns out that it wasn’t the only CD my cousin gave me. There were two others.. ^_^

I’ve been listening to the All For You the whole day at office.. Not a bad Monday at all.. ^_^

Updating blog

Okay.. I know it has been months since I've not updated this blog. I'll try to keep it up.

Linux Mint

I've been struggling to find an easy way to install audio and video codecs in Ubuntu so that it can play mp3 and avi files. I've been craving for some out of the box linux distribution that supports those codecs out of the box.

I kept searching.. until I found Linux Mint this morning; it's a ubuntu based linux distribution.

It simply plays mp3 and divx files out of the box. That saves a lot of hassle for those linux machines that are not connected to the Internet.

Current stable release is still Linux Mint 6 (based on Ubuntu 8.10) and I'm looking forward to the next release (based on Ubuntu 9.04)

GMB Ruth Sahanaya

Got a CD Giving My Best Ruth Sahanaya  with original signature of Ruth Sahayana herself.

I’ve had this CD for a couple of weeks and just opened it. Totally forgot bout it.. –_-

QVGA Pocket e-Sword

Okay.. new problem comes after installing the new ROM update of HTC Touch Diamond. The display of Pocket e-Sword seems to get wrong.

I posted a thread at XDA-Developers forum and found out that it's the .NET Compact Framework 3.5

I hope there will be some sort of fix for this.

Anniversary of Metro

It has been exactly 12 years since my parents started their business. Mom & Dad are at Jakarta for family wedding and anniversary, so I'm taking initiative to get a cake for everyone there.
