Well, first day at work today, starting at MSD. Today was mostly spent getting to know everyone and setting up and installing my development environment. OK, one nice pic of Muffin to end this post:

It has been a nice trip over to Melbourne. Yi Wen and I spent six days there, mainly sightseeing and enjoying the free rides on Melbourne’s tourist shuttles and trams ;). A bunch of pictures are now available on my photoblog. Enjoy!

Using CPanel, WHM, shell Access (or plesk), DNS Prerequisites: Shell Access (or ability to edit the httpd.conf)DNS editing accessWildcard DNS abilityPHP!* We use www.domain.tld as an example. Modify to suit. First, make sure that your www.domain.tld works as normal Second, enable wildcard DNS by (various means, depending on your interface). But you should see something like * 14400 A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your NS ip address (should be the same as the one in the www A record)

ONCE upon a time, there was a small Kingdom in the South Seas. It was a peaceful place where many peoples of many different colours lived together. By and large, they were happy. There was plenty to eat in this Kingdom and there were lots to do. Some of the people liked to dance, some liked to sing, some liked to tell stories. A few even did all three. And of course there were many who liked to watch those singing, dancing and telling stories.

Wow, I accidentally hit F7 and Firefox turned into an annoying monster that has its own mind. Yes, press F7 and your up or down keyboard buttons behave differently when you are scrolling! It scrolls line by line, with a cursor (much like Word) instead of scrolling smoothly like a normal web page…. Tip, it’s called ‘Caret Browsing’ ….So blo*** obscure

Well, I have been involved in some new ventures and restarting some old ones. Check it out: www.edoodle.co.nz - an old hobby of mine, which will soon launch a website for artists soon.http://www.elvis.ac.nz/brain?ThongKuahwww.wen.co.nz A new website for my gf’s art gallerylittlearty.blogspot.com Surprise! Gosh, life is busy!

I’ve always hated the way Malaysian bloggers write about this concept of race: So, given that I accidentally have this treasure trove of data, I might as well perform some analysis on it. Methodology: open up pdf file (Acrobat reader: and search (whole word only) Limitations: Ignores context of the word being counted Note: the pdf file refers to the “surprise comments” made on my blog, all about politics, which I will post it up when I find a file server to upload it to.

I have any comments on my blog sent to my gmail. This fine morning, I woke up and saw this bunch of comments! Imagine my surprise? Where did all this traffic come from…. Then I realised the comments did not really make sense. They were talking about politics instead of about wises.co.nz. But they were from Malaysia and Australia and NZ. Blogger comment mixup?

Is it the weather or something? I’m not normally so pissed off (pardon the expression), but when did posting something become so difficult all of a sudden? The ol’ Books and More down at Lambton Quay was a good friend of ours, with extended opening hours and nice staff, who helped YOU out. My first step was greeted by this wall that stopped me from entering the Post shop from the streetside.

Today, wises decided to give a ticket to hell. They gave a map and directions to nowhere! If you notice the picture, Broomhill Road is a dead end. (complete with fallen log, jungle track, non-tarred road, and being one-lane-so-turning-around-is-oh-so-hard). It doesn’t lead to Highbury Road or Highbury Crescent or whatever. Note to self: Mt Pleasant Rd is not so pleasant after all. How do those ppl live and drive there?
