我也來湊一下熱鬧。在這個網站上輸入一些英文字，例如你的英文名字，它就會利用 flickr上的英文字母照片來把你輸入的英文字併湊出來。其實它的做法很簡單，不算特別，不過能利用現有的網絡資源來做一些小玩意，確實是創意的表現。
我的名字：
Asus notebook explosion
Asus notebook is cheap, but you definitely don’t want it to explode under your palms when you have been using it for a few hours. Stay away from Asus!

2006 四旬期，復活節重要日子
把四旬期 (Lent) 裡的重要日子如復活節 (Easter) 等記一下：
聖灰瞻禮 (Ash Wednesday) – March 1
聖枝主日 (Palm Sunday) – April 9
耶穌受難日 (Good Friday) – April 14
復活節 (Easter) – April 16
That’s why, 今日要守大小齋。
IBM, you have betrayed me three times
My IBM X40 notebook is having problems again, this time is the USB subsystem. No matter what USB devices I plug into the computer, they are not detected.
First was the harddisk, and then it was the battery, now it is USB. I’m fed up with all the problems I met with this notebook computer. If the quality of IBM notebooks has become so low, I wonder Lenovo won’t be any better.
Snowboard, Burton, Speed, Go go go!
I bought the Burton‘s Blunt snowboard while I was in Mammoth, CA, US. It costs US$320, It should be the cheapest Burton snowboard that I could find. The bindings I chose was Flow‘s AMP9. The step-in design is very convenient and costs just US$179, which is not expensive compare with other strap-in bindings. For the boots I bought a pair of Salomon‘s Maori. Its powerlace system makes it much easier to tighten the boots. I planned to buy one of those BOA boots but gave up at last, because it would be a hassle if the wire broke, it would be difficult to find someone to repair it in Beijing.
I also have some skiing and snowboarding photos in my gallery, remember to check it out! Have fun!
