I have to create a table to present some complicate data at work. The different sections in the table are included or excluded depends on different configurations. It would be too overwhelming and confusing to write a static table and then… [...]

二十一世紀是全球化的年代﹐隨著科技和交通發達﹐在世界兩個各角的地方隔離縮短了﹐隨著緊密的政治經濟合作關係﹐國與國之間的圍牆也倒下了。不論在那裏生活的人﹐無論是在發達國家還是第三世界﹐也無可被免要適應全球化的大趨勢。「世界是平的」這本書正好為讀者解說全球化的來龍去脈﹐分析發達國家與第三世界在全球化遇到的問題﹐以及展望未來全球化的方向。這本書在零五年出版後便一直高踞紐約時報暢銷書排行榜﹐去年更獲推薦為香港電台十本好書。其實在這本書出版以前﹐全球化這個詞語早已深入民心。若平時有看經濟或企管雜誌﹐對書中的內容相信不會陌生。不過這本書把有關全球化的知識有系統地整理出來﹐對新手是一本很好的入書藉﹐亦可以讓老手溫故知新﹐重新思考在全球化中自己的定位。… [...] After waiting for almost half a year, I finially received the title of professional engineer. (P.Eng.) I thought I would recieve a welcome letter and the registration package to inform my credential is approved, instead it is the invoice… [...] 
我在網上書店郵賺陳冠中的「我這一代香港人」 時﹐發現很多讀者也同時訂購了他的另一部小說「香港三部曲」。在網上好像也看過這小說的介紹﹐說寫得不錯﹐反正要賺物滿一定限額才可以免郵費﹐想不到購買什麼其他書的情況下﹐便順手買了這本小說。原本以為小說名稱叫三部曲﹐一定會是本長篇小說﹐寄到後才發現全書不足二百頁﹐只不過是三篇沒有關連的短篇小說的結集﹐有點被騙錢的感覺。陳冠中擅長寫香港文化﹐「我這一代香港人」的性質半散文半論文比較嚴肅﹐「香港三部曲」則以輕鬆的手法﹐從側面去描寫香港文化的轉變。書中的三個故事分別發生在崇洋風氣漸起的七十年代﹐經濟起飛的八十年代﹐以及回歸後老懵董的年代。三個故事的主角都不屬於香港社會的主流文化﹐從某程度上他們是主流眼中的失敗者。然而作者借用他們三人的眼睛﹐從他們的另類價值觀出發﹐與主流意識作一個對照﹐讓讀者從字裏行間中反思自己的價值取向。… [...]

My new Treo 680 has built-in bluetooth connection, which is pretty much a standard feature of all new cell phones.

I wish all the readers of my blog a prosperous year of pig.

It is nice able to test drive a S60. The S60 is smaller than my S70. Actually it is so small that it doesn’t feel like a Volvo. The handling… [...] 
明年二零零八年是選舉年﹐在美國有民主共和兩黨二擇其一的總統大選﹐在香港則有結果內定的小圈子特首選舉。當現實中的選舉是如此般乏味﹐「年度人物」正好填補這個空白﹐讓觀眾看一場精彩的選戰。這齣電影由Robin… [...] 
去年公司大老闆說要改革﹐發給員工一人一本GE總裁Jack Welch寫的Winning。可惜有頭威沒有尾勢﹐除了部門重組上層人事大改動外﹐中下層的劣等管理文化依舊。我唯一的得著只是有本免費書﹐我以前從來不看企管書藉。不過既然開始看了第一本﹐好像上癮似的﹐一年下來前後讀了五六本同類書藉。在Jack… [...] 
去年原本沒有多少人認識的陳冠中﹐一躍成為香港文化界的代表作家。他的著作「我這一代香港人」不單晉身香港電台舉辦的十本好書名單內﹐還成為城中知識份子人手一本的指定讀本。我這個沒有什麼文化的粗人﹐自然不甘後人﹐買本回來閱讀惡補﹐好在人前扮有文化。陳冠中在文化界活躍多年﹐他是「號外」雜誌的創辨人﹐現今定居北京容梭中港台各地地。這本書將他多年的文章結集出版﹐形式雖似是散文集﹐但並非一般的消閑讀物。每篇文章的學術含量頗高﹐作者以他淵博的學識﹐去分析和介紹影響香港的各種文化思潮。… [...] Today, I came across book sharing website at anobii.com. It is pretty much like Douban.com, except this one is focus only on books and have a better user interface.

Unfortunately, after spending 3 hours in the mall, the only thing I bought is a polo shirt. Not a very productive shopping trip. I first went to Mountain Equiment Co-op then head towards Park… [...] In grade school or junor high, people love practical jokes. If the joke is harmless, at least physically, it is nothing but some nonsense fun. However I can’t believe someone who is in his mid-thirties still play practical jokes pulling… [...] 
香港教育學院的事件最近越鬧越大﹐從校長莫時禮不獲續約開始﹐到教職員因發表文章反對政府教策而被辭退﹐演變成教統局官員有否干預學術自由的風波。追朔事情的起末﹐整事件源於教院未來的發展方向﹐教統局主張把教院合併入其他大學﹐而教院本身則力爭升格改名為大學。可是不論是政府還是教院的爭論﹐妨忽認為除了合併與改名外﹐就沒有第三個可行的選擇。為什麼教院不可以安份守己﹐繼續發揮它專上學院的功用呢﹖… [...] It is my turn to be the PMC Idle. My old project is finished and the whole term is not assign to new project. There are rumors that the company is going to have another restructure next month.
