Kopi Siew Dai = CL?

Kopi Siew Dai = CL?: originally uploaded by jinn

I ordered take-away Kopi Siew Dai (coffee less sweet) & other hot beverages at a foodcourt. After she had finished preparing them, she told me that the one marked with CL was the Kopi Siew Dai. I've been wondering since what CL really means. Why not just an asterisk or SD?

Another change to RSS Feed URL

by jinn Email

After deliberating for a while, I decided to sign up for Feedburner because it gives me more control of my blog feeds. So my RSS feed URL is changed yet again. I'm sorry but please do update your feed aggregator and subscribe my blog with the new URL - http://feeds.feedburner.com/jinnpod. Thank you.

Now, if you have a blog and haven't looked at Feedburner, you are definitely missing something, like I have, until now.

The end of Super Aguri

by jinn Email

Come this weekend and onwards, there will only be 10 teams competing in F1, as Super Aguri has officially withdrawn from the competition due to financial difficulties. The crisis was caused by a breach of contract by their main sponsor, SS United. Poor Takuma Sato and Anthony Davidson - they will be out of job in the middle of a season.

More info here and here.

To further amplify my laziness

by jinn Email

I've been searching and scouring high and low for a plugin/widget to easily add RSS feeds, in particular my Tumblr feeds, into my blog as main posts. But the nearest thing I found was adding the feeds to a sidebar. I think it still could be done if I hack around some PHP files but the codes are as foreign to me as French is.

Hopefully I'll see a plugin soon from b2evolution.

Change of RSS Feed URLs

by jinn Email

If you are subscribing to one of feeds URL of this blog, please take note that there is a change in the URLs after the upgrade (see sidebar). Please update your feed readers and aggregators accordingly. I apologise for the inconvenience.

Update: It seems like the old RSS feed is still updating, but much slower.

Update 2: I have signed with Feedburner and now my blog feed is at http://feeds.feedburner.com/jinnpod.

All set up

by jinn Email

The blog is all set up and ready to go. I've changed the header picture, tinkered with the layout, added a Twitter update at the side-bar, and most importantly, I've finally setup the blogging feature from Flickr, which means I am now able to blog pictures from my phone.

Blog engine upgraded to v2.4.2

by jinn Email

I've just upgraded my blog engine to the latest version. Compared to the previous upgrade, this was a breeze. I should have done it long ago, so I'm glad I finally did.

There are more configurable items in the Admin page in version 2, but I've done the bare minimum for now. A new skin is also in place, but I've left everything to default, like the picture up there. I will leave the customization to the weekend when I have more time to explore more.

Good night! I'm off to bed.
