Migrating To A New Site

Well, guys. This is going to be the last post in this blog.

(Update: Last post? I don't think so. I've decided to return on this blog. Consider this post old and obsolete! :D)

No, I'm not giving up on the whole blogging thing. It's just... I am migrating to a new site. For the record, I'm currently a part time web developer in a company and my job inclines more and more to Wordpress. I've grown familiarized with setting up Wordpress, Woocommerce, and even developing their plugins, although I still have a long way to go.

I'm frankly amazed at how flexible and customizable Wordpress is, even though it's much harder to fix problems compared to traditional, self-sourced web app. You can instantly set up a site, write a new plugin that makes the site do what you want (it does take some time, and sometimes your plugin may conflict other plugins), or just start adding content to your sites. There are also themes that make your designing life easier and make you look like a professional designer even if you don't know anything about CSS (although some themes have overwhelmingly detailed number of complex design options and some... are expensive).

Anyway, enough about endorsing Blogger's competitor. Another reason I switch is because in my opinion, Blogger is stagnant and getting boring. Yeah, as much as I love Blogger as a medium to express myself (and I'm going to miss Blogger's native integration with Picasa and Google Photos), its mobile app was last updated a year ago and people start complaining it doesn't work with newer Android versions (I can't prove this, since I hate using Blogger mobile app the first time I tried). Although Google says they're not abandoning their blogging platform and keeps adding features, I think I'm going to jump ship first. Sure, I might return, when Google finally brings something new, something fresh to this beloved platform.

I'm not losing hope, I'm not abandoning Blogger. I'll keep this blog alive, and for the sake of that, I won't import contents from here. When Google brings something new and exciting to Blogger, I might consider returning here but for now, I'm going to change ship.

Thanks for all your support and visits. I hope I can see you all again in my new blog, http://vectorstate.net.

Have a nice day, everyone!

BOLT! 4G Mobile Wi-Fi Review

If you're a guy who always follows how technologies advance, then you must know 4G. Yes, the next generation of GSM network (and also CDMA) promises clearer voice quality and significantly faster data transfer. Though that sounds fantastic, the availability of such network is currently limited to a handful of countries. Heck, even the next generation 4G (like LTE-A and 5G) is currently being deployed and developed respectively as we speak. BOLT! is the first operator to offer 4G network in Indonesia One of the countries that is currently preparing for 4G network is Indonesia. No offense, but I'm kind of pessimistic, since the 3G networks here suck pretty bad. But it's not that all bad. While telco operators are testing 4G networks in various locations, there's already one new kid on the block offering the sweetness of 4G network. Well, Folks, let me introduce you to BOLT!, a new operator which focuses on delivering 4G data. Unfortunately, it's currently av

Which WinRAR Compression Do You Need? [GUIDE]

Okay, this is finally the time when I write a serious (and perhaps useful) post. The last time I wrote a post was about the first anniversary for Steve Jobs' passing. You can read it below this post. He was one of great people that mankind will miss. Anyway, the post before the anniversary was already weeks ago. Thanks to the busy routines and tons of assignments in my lecture, I almost abandoned by beloved blog. Today, though... marks the day for my return. Hit the break if you're interested about the meaning behind 'Store', 'Fast', 'Best', etc. :D

Logitech mk240 Mouse Combo Review

Image
What do you do when you have a Windows tablet that doesn't include a keyboard dock? No, you neither throw it into the trash can or merely play games with it. You'll buy a set of wireless mouse and keyboard and of course, a USB OTG cable and put them together. That way, you'll have yourself a complete 'hybrid' notebook, albeit cheap. Now, I'm pretty certain that you're thinking that there's no such set that has the right size for your tablet. It'd make you look very ridiculous, and you'll be ashamed to bring it with you, even to your favorite café. Fortunately, I have a solution that I recently found. The Logitech mk240 Keyboard + Mouse Combo. It's not the best solution, but at least it can save you some cash and a little bit of embarrassment. Logitech mk240 Mouse Combo Official Shot (White) With the width almost equal to a widescreen 10" tablet, this might be the closest-to-perfection keyboard to pair with yo
