I still haven't managed to find a good place to order Makoto Shinkai's first artbook yet. Reader Maltos managed to find HMV (it's in English) but, £7 delivery is just a bit hefty to be honest when the book itself is already around £13 so I'm still keeping an eye out for alternatives. I suppose it's better than Amazon's ridiculous 19...
Well, it's been a month since I purchased my own domain, hosting space and moved my blog. Only half the hits I usually get have managed to get transferred over here so far and I'm still finding people commenting on the old Wordpress account one. I'm tempted to delete it altogether but, there are images hosted on their servers and I have no...
Snapped this picture a few days ago in a shopping centre because I thought Advanced MP3 Players was just an online store. Their service was great. Quick e-mail responses and fast courier based deliveries so it was interesting to find they had set up a stall here too.
I used to order from them when DAPs only played a limited number of file...
And what an exciting name I chose, eh? I actually wanted to go with Xcomp.com or Xcomp.co.uk but both of them had already been taken. I had thought of going with "Xcomp-Yuuenchi" but I don't really intend to keep that name for long. Just didn't want a Japanese word in my domain name for the long term so I arrived at Xcomprandomness...
I've finally decided to take the plunge and have invested in my own domain and private hosting space. The traffic I've been getting has increased from a mere daily 100 unique visitors to almost 1000 since starting this new blog on Wordpress and is staying around that mark. So I thought maybe I can do more if I had my own space without the...
同天空 (The Same Sky) by Pak Ho Chau (周柏豪) is the only song I've been playing whenever I'm at home over the past few days. I like the lyrics and the rhythm has a nice flow to it. It's not the first time I looped a song for days though. Mosaic Kakera by Sunset Swish was also one of my favourites (and still is).
Anyway, below you'll find the Chinese...
After installing a student copy of Microsoft Office 2007 Ultimate Edition, I found that every time I tried switching between documents or windows, its application windows would pause for a few seconds before being usable. It's been very annoying but fortunately, I came across what was causing the problem. It was the Acrobat...
That is, according to Ray Kurzweil.
Humanity is on the brink of advances that will see tiny robots implanted in people's brains to make them more intelligent, said Ray Kurzweil. The engineer believes machines and humans will eventually merge through devices implanted in the body to boost intelligence and health. Right, more...
Just been about a few days since the English version of the first Professor Layton puzzle game's been released over in NA and, the traffic on my blog's already being topped everyday. I wasn't really expecting so many hits from people searching for information about the game or guides for it to be honest so, this was a little surprise...
Just a temp post. Could anyone who e-mailed me within the past 9 hours (yeah, it's work time over here!) re-send their e-mails to me please? Sorry but, my anti-virus was acting up while it scanned the last small batch of e-mails and seemed to have corrupted a number of them. Now I can't get the e-mails off the server again since it thinks...
