Thursday, January 12th, 2012

Printing has become a tedious task in computing. To share and connect each other via short USB and parallel port is messy.

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

I believe most of you don’t border mailbox size anymore ever since Gmail increase your mailbox size.

The question suddenly come into my mind, how much space do I have after years of emailing?

I receive emails everyday. Not junk mail. They including a daily backup of each domain, subscription email, guest blog request, advertisements request and business partner. I delete non of them in case need to refer in future.

How to Check Gmail Mailbox Size?

Very easy. Login to your Gmail, scroll to the bottom you’ll see current mailbox usage. I just utilize 30% of 7.6GB space, that is about 2.2GB. Still have 5.4GB to go!

How to Cleanup Gmail?

See my Inbox has 3000+ Unread emails! That’ huge amount of emails. I can say all of them are unused except the recent WordPress backup files.

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

We are now come to end of year 2011. Time fly faster than a rocket.

Google Japan has release the Top 10 Hot Search Keywords of the year 2011! From keyword we know this year is a really bad year for Japan.

Technology keywords are no more in top five. iPad 2 and iPhone5 rank at position 6 and 7.

All top five keywords are related to earthquake, power down issue and radiation leakage!

In fact, aftershock is happen around Japan after the earthquake till now. Imagine how much fear in such situation.

Many hope there will be better year next year. But I believe earthquake will become more frequent compare to this year till the end of the day!

Does that mean Natural Disaster keywords will become hot keywords worldwide in near future? Let’s wait and see.
