Cool business cards
Found a cool entry when I watched Diggnation #164, the episode that Kevin and Alex were drinking Itoen’s green tea. The cards gallery is really creative.

Oh, someone knocking the door.

Amazing iPhone App
Found an amazing iPhone app via Digg.
Apple’s iPhone-App-Approval Mouse Falls Off Treadmill: Buy The $1000 App That Does Nothing (AAPL)
Behold: “I Am Rich,” a $999.99 app from Armin Heinrich, which just displays a red gem on the phone’s screen — nothing else.
lol… Is he genius?!

Upgraded MovableType 3 to 4
Finally I finished transition from MovableType 3 to 4. This is a test post form my new blogging platform. It was really easy to upgrade. Just followed these steps.
- Back up entire directories
- Back up a database
- Upload MT4
- Change permissions
- Overwrite mt-config.cgi from my MT3
That’s it! If you use plugins, need to copy them too. I had a problem about templates mapping but was solved soon.
Now I have to fix templates to use a global templates feature. Hope to get a more productive way to maintenance blogs.
