This is kinda creative:
How to “Peel” Hard-Boiled Eggs Without Peeling
Although I won’t supposed that some one would want to eat the hard-boiled egg you “peeled”.
Crazy old internet video from 1997.
MASTER OF THE INTERNET
Is this supposed to make the internet seem cool? I like the part where they say it only takes 10 minutes. Watch how slow it loads too.
Penn and Teller explain sleight of hand in this marvelous trick!
Penn and Teller Explain Sleight of Hand
You can watch the above video if you’re kinda bored at work. Make sure you have audio turned on.
Very cool explanation by Penn & Teller on how to pull off one of their famous tricks.
It’s just so enjoyable to watch I never thought how it’s done. If you love magic and want to continue to love magic, perhaps you shouldn’t watch the video.
Exploring the origins of the dance move made famous by Michael Jackson that became an overnight sensation.
How Michael Jackson Learned the Moonwalk
Michael Jackson’s just amazing - his stage presence and his dance moves. Sure he has embarrassing moments - the nose, the obsession with young kids, the child dangling incident and so on - but I still love watching his videos.
This is my favorite feature in Gmail:
(Download all attachments in Gmail.)
It’s just a simple feature but it just saves so much time, clicking on the Download all attachment link in Gmail lets you, er, download all attachment. But you get it consolidated nicely in a ZIP file. It makes life so much easier.
Microsoft’s Windows Live Hotmail (name too long, consider rename) does not have that feature and it is my main complaint. Last time I’ll click and download the bloody attachments one by one. I’ll have to wait, download, save, wait, download, save, wait…
Now I just forward the mail from Live Hotmail to Gmail and download the attachment through Gmail. It’s a simple yet well-thought feature. What a life saver when you have like 10 attachments!
And recently Gmail increased the email space limit to 6 GB. It now says that I am using 625 MB (10%) of your 6182 MB. And if you’re wondering how come I store 600 MB worth of emails? Oh, it’s just those mail I forward from Hotmail to Gmail so that I can download all the attachments.
Sad to say, as much as I love Gmail, I still rely quite a lot on Hotmail, especially with friends. I use Gmail for work, but all the mails my friends send me to go to my Hotmail.
I’ve grown to be more flexible already. I maintain a to-do list of the day and never plan my day like you would in an event schedule plan.
It really didn’t make sense after a while, planning things this way:
- 8 AM, wake up and blah blah
- 9 AM, start to do work on Flash
- 11 AM, read a nerd book
- 12 PM, go for lunch
- …
I rarely follow them, what I plan usually turned out this way:
- 6 AM, somehow woke up for no reason and have nothing to do
- 7 AM, since I’m on track I’ll go for a bit of breakfast
- 8 AM, so filling now. Tries to work some Flash
- 9 AM, realizes it’s unproductive and try to read a nerd book
- 10 AM, falls asleep reading nerd book
- 12 PM, my brother wake me up for lunch
- …
It just didn’t work out at all. These days, I have a to-do list, ranked in priority:
- Finish section A for e-business assignment
- Work on at least 1 question on computing assignment
- Work on Flash
- Read nerd book
- Renew nerd book
- Optional: Have breakfast
Okay, the ‘have breakfast’ part is lame but you get my point. It does kinda help me get organized and nowadays I sleep as and when I like, read as and when I like and work as and when I like. If it’s not productive, I usually go to bed. It kinda messed up my sleep cycles to a certain extends, I’m usually well and awake at 2 in the morning programming. It’s kinda bad for health I heard but things seem to get done.
And when things get done, I get happier as the result. And happier persons do get healthy right?
There is this thing my friend was telling me about liver repairs occurring between 12 to 3 AM in the morning when you’re sleeping. And once you missed it, your liver gets poorer as the days pass by. Ever heard of this? Can anybody verify this?
