If Wimax is on..

banji — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 23:47:15 +0800

Frustrated with my internet connection (who doesn't), I want to know should wimax ever successfully run, with that speed of about 5MB/s what can we actually do with that kind of speed?

remote robotic control?
surveilance?
etc

What else can we do? What would you do?

[WTA] paragraph and spacing

banji — Sat, 26 Jan 2008 12:22:07 +0800

I have a problem, and the only way I can explain to you if you can have a look at one of my blog's post. Here's the link

As you can see, the comments are very crampy. Let say I post a comment and to make my comment readable, I press "enter" twice for paragraphing. However when it is published, it will be like I just press enter once.

In short, I'm asking for the HTML code to ensure that anytime I press "Enter" for paragraphing, the published comments will have a clear gap between paragraphs. Any idea what I need to add / delete /edit to the css?

I really appreciate any help

Customize Permalink Structure in WP

banji — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 12:40:10 +0800

Greeting guys..

I would like to seek your help in this one. I've already installed wordpress in my host, and I am thinking of changing the permalink structure from the default http://website.com/?p=123 to http://website.com/2007/10/19/sample-post/.

When I change, there is this message

"You should update your .htaccess now.

If your .htaccess file were writable, we could do this automatically, but it isn’t so these are the mod_rewrite rules you should have in your .htaccess file. Click in the field and press CTRL + a to select all.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule> "

I'm sorry if this is very basic.. I've searched in the codex wordpress but cannot understand what need to be done. Anyone knows? Really appreciate the help

RSS Feed Problem

banji — Fri, 05 Oct 2007 17:31:15 +0800

Hi guys.. just want to ask your opinion on this.

I'm trying to provide rss feed via feedburner. Everything is ok. but just recently I started putting in script into my post to make show/hide portion of my post. (Those "Read more" script). I then noticed my rss feed is exactly like that, meaning it doesn't show full feed but just up to the Read More". Hopefully u can understand.

My question is - how to rectify this? My aim is to provide full feed but in the same time still has that "Read more" script in my post. Please help

If you can't understand, feel free to subscribe to my feed and see. You can unsubscribe later if you want to. But I didn't put the icon in the blog so here's the link to my rss feed - http://feeds.feedburner.com/ImmortalW

Thanx in advance

Question about paid hosting

banji — Sun, 17 Jun 2007 11:43:42 +0800

Hi guys.. I'm thinking of registering a domain for my blog. and may be hosting it myself (the blog is currently hosted by blogspot). I first have these questions though

1) What's the different between hosting it yourself and by blogspot? is it the speed?
2) I'm quite comfortable with the blogspot user interface. I mean the "add new post via email", the "new post" etc. If I host it myself, is there a similar or maybe better interface included?
3) How about my previous post? can it be transfered to the new host? Or everything will be reset?

I'm sorry for the newbie question. Just gathering all information before I make the leap of faith. Thanx in advance

General or Specialized Topics?

banji — Fri, 11 May 2007 19:49:12 +0800

I'm very new to this blogging. just want to ask which one is a better blog concept.

1) General - where anything goes. no specific niche / area of blogging. very much like mine
2) Specialized - for example blog dedicated to handphone/overclocking etc.

any opinion is appreciated. may change the concept later on

[WTA] Clone simcard

banji — Fri, 01 Dec 2006 13:10:13 +0800

first.. im sorry if cloning simcard is an illegal thing to do. if it is, do inform me and i will close the thread.

I am now using a data card to connect to internet. to do this of course i will have to subscribe to unlimited data plan, which i am.

i wish to leave my simcard in my datacard and have another one in my phone so that i can surf both via my pc and my phone. my current option is to swap between the modem and my phone everytime.

my question is
1) is it possible to clone simcard?
2) if there is such service, can anyone point me to them.
3) is there any other alternatives available?

p.s. I already called the careline for all three operator (Maxis, digi and celcom), some didnt even have a clue
