Susan Reynolds of Boobsonice’s twitter has brought to my attention this fund raising effort.

Back at the end of last year, through my posting In the Wrong Crowd, I had expressed my concerns on the difficulty in raising money for charity via the Internet. But again, it was Doug Karr’s posting (which I subscribed via RSS) that

After 18 months finally I could move all the postings from my original blog to this site.

When I started blogging, I used the blogging tool provided by my host. Even though it was using WordPress, I was told then that I didn’t have access to database and all my wp-* folders. I knew little about WP at that time, but when I re

When I typed in 'How to increase your alexa rank for a Google search, I got so many references telling me to download then install the alexa-toolbar and I would see a tremendous increase in my A-Ranking (borrowed from Marcus Hochstadt) number.

How many Cyrus Mistry a Google Search will give you? A lot! As of now, at least there were ~35,700 documents for a search on Cyrus alone, then the document number reduced to 2910 when you put a quotation mark for “cyrus mistry.” I found this when I was trying to search for some background info that I’d like to add into this pos

Thirty year ago today, I landed at Chitose Airport, in Hokkaido. Kus who had been a year there at Hokkudai went with Masaaki Imai Sensei to pick me up and took me to the campus. Time flies. Recently, the Tefas from Kobe sent me the DVD of the 58th Kouhaku Utagazzen, or the Annual Music Show on the New Years Eve. I could pick ou

There was a good article about our hometown in NYT with a title, When the Germans, and Rockets, came to town.

Tired with the political news, I flipped the TV channel and saw this guy talking about the applications of NASA technology by Google. After a while I found out that it was Eric Schmidt, the CEO of Google giving a presentation as part of NASA 50th Anniversary Lecture series.

I was puzzled by the fact that when I typed in my url at What’s My PageRank site, it shows a PR 2 for this site, but when I installed What’s My PageRank code to display the PR at my sidebar, the result shows it was a PR zero site.
