MAMP: Mac, Apache, MySQL, PHP
Introduction Before my friend introduced me to MAMP (Mac + Apache + MySQL + PHP), I wasn’t really able to do much web producing commuting to work. I was limited to making site mockups using Adobe Photoshop CS2 and some basic coding, but I couldn’t actually make the pages until I had internet connection so [...]
Harris Restaurant Review
For my birthday, Andrea took me to Harris Restaurant at 2100 Van Ness Ave. in San Francisco, CA. I must say this place is much more fancy than any steakhouse I’ve ever been too. You walk in here and you would expect high priced Frenchie food or overpriced American food. And the worse part in [...]

Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook 7.0.2
Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook (affectionately shortened to DAMO) is an interface software by IBM designed to allow Microsoft Outlook to interface into the Domino Server. It was originally designed for users who are on Microsoft Exchange and are being migrated to Lotus Notes. I’ve found another use for it: clients who absolutely dread the [...]
Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition Review
I have always been fascinated with the Titanic story. Something humbling about it how we should always remember never to put too much faith in technology and that rushing a project could prove disastrous. The exhibition is currently being done at San Francisco’s Metreon on the fourth floor until January 7th, 2007.
How To Integrate WordPress and BBPress

It makes adding and updating content very simple and allows others to add and/or update content easily also. BBPress is the forum application that can either be used as a stand alone [...]
Verizon Wireless Sync and Palm Treo 650, part 2
Back in June, I originally posted a review of the Verizon Wireless Sync and Palm Treo 650 and now it is time to revisit the topic and also include some updates. After nearly six months of using a Palm Treo 650 and the Wireless Sync method, I am still quite happy with the results. I [...]
