PDF search engines and the endless possibilities of the Internet.

June 28, 2010 Posted by admin

Yowza! I really never stop being impressed with the evolution of the Internet. What if I told you, dear reader, that it’s now possible to search pdf documents and preview them right off your browser? Sounds really sweet, does it not? Well, that’s just what can be done through the new age pdf search engine… kind of a funky name if you ask me, but the tool itself (which is what really matters) sure seems to work like a charm. If you have habit of looking for portable document files on the good old cyberspace, I’m pretty sure this will make your life easier.

At times like these, I cannot help but thinking…. this Internet thing has gone a really long and unpredictable and wonderful way, in the past decade or so. Sometimes I try to imagine what it will be like in another ten years, but that’s just outright scary. Kind of like trying to predict the future. Hm, now that I think of it… I could look up a pdf on foretelling the future. Or maybe another one on predicting the evolution of the Internet. Or maybe both? I mean, just because I can! I really enjoy life in the XXI century, have I told you that?

International shipping and a bit of sweet family annoyance.

June 28, 2010 Posted by admin

Don’t you really love it when all your close family somehow seems to regard you as the offical tech wizard in the clan? And yes, I’m being sarcastic here. Because when I say “tech wizard” I really mean “he who handles all the computer-related chores no one really knows how to do or cares to learn how it’s done”. Yes, I figured you may just be able to relate with the whole concept here. You know how it goes… at first they just call you up occasionally for a brief question on how to attach files to an e-mail, and next thing you know, you’re officially in charge of the entire family’s lines of communication.

Anyway… Figuring out the best way to send an antique table to my aunt who lives in Europe: such was my fated headache for today. And for a while there, I almost thought it was going to be a real problem, until I came across this rather decent-looking website specialized in International Shipping. Being quite the informed online shopper I pride myself to be, I wasted no time to look up some reviews to figure out what people think of this website. Judging from what I’ve read so far, it turns out to be a rather decent service with some really competitive prices.

Do you see where I’m going with this? Well, for once, maybe you can relate with my premise and the reference will prove occasionally when you happen to be faced with a similar ordeal. For second… well, I guess I really felt like venting. I’m all for helping my fellow man, and remarkably my fellow family member, but come on… sometimes I cannot help but feel they’re taking advantage of me. Oh well, I still love them so I just put up with it. But one of these days I’ll start teaching them how it’s done, rather than doing it for them. One of these days, I tell you!

My resolution of mastering the coding arts.

June 27, 2010 Posted by admin

Today I decided I’m finally doing something I should have done a long time ago: learn some programming. I mean, I’ve been using computers since I was a kid, and it’s always as a basic user. I’ve always felt drawn to the concept of creating code and conversing with the computer, devising new pieces of software and all that… yet all the while, I guess I never really put effort into it. Well, I happened to come across this website on Cisco Training Indianapolis and I suddenly got a burst of inspiration. I will learn how to program, even if it kills me.

Ok, so maybe it won’t kill me, but it won’t be exactly easy either. Some people just seem to have a natura knack to write code; I really don’t think I have such a skill. I’m just good with other things, other than programming. But I guess with the proper tutoring, one can go long way in terms of surpassing their limitations. Well, hopefully having a good teacher will make all the difference! I’m really doing my best effort this time around, and if I can’t learn how to code, at least I can say I have earnestly tried to. How about yourself, are you any good when in the coding arts?
