Another post about cars

5月

30日

I just filled up my 2011 Honda Accord ... it cost me about $70 to fill up. Ouch. I am driving one of the most fuel efficient cars but it still hurts.

There is no reason for the gas price to be this high. Oil companies are blaming on Iraq and cost of crude oil while they are making the record profit. What is with that? Those companies are publicly traded and they have responsibilities to the public, don't they?

I feel sorry for people and companies who are driving trucks and buses for their business. I don't real feel sorry for people riding big V8 engine cars. That is their choice.

Installing EV Charging Station

5月

30日

Finally we are installing EV Charging Station at our headquarters parking. VECA Electric is installing it for us.

If you own a EV like LEAF, you can now charge at PSPINC. Just let us know we will let you hook up. Did you know PSPINC purchases alternate energy from Puget Sound Energy? So when you charge at PSPINC, you are not only charing your Eco EV, you are charging using electricity from an alternate energy source.

User Interface Developed by Engineers

5月

29日

It is not a good idea to have engineers work on the user interface.

"$0.00 Extra Skype Credit $2 "

This is what I got at Skype website when I enter my credit. What is this mean?
Skype is now a part of Microsoft. This is the problem of Microsoft. Microsoft has way too many engineers who have no idea what users think.

Blog Guide to Business Owners.

5月

29日

Why should you blog?

When you buy product or service from a company, don't you choose the company you have heard or know about? The only way that people get to know you and your company is by looking at your web presence. That means, you want to update your home pages often.

Updating your home page is not easy or cheap. Blog enables you to do that at no cost. So, blog often. People like to know you via blog.

Here is a commercial. Why should you use Bloguru?

Bloguru is the only blog that is available with no advertisement. Other blog sites are full of advertisement and as a business owner you do not want to advertise other companies.

Golf at Aldarra

I played golf with one and only Mr. Jesse Jones (King 5) at Aldarra today. I met him last year at Lenny Wilkens Foundation and he is going to help us at PSPINC 25th Anniversary this year. I shot 39 for the first 9 but I shot 50 in the back. So ended up 89. I could have, should have done better ... No I can't.

Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac

5月

18日

I installed Microsoft Office for Mac yesterday and started create a presentation this morning.

I used to use PowerPoint a lot so that I thought I know how to use it. What the hell wrong this software? Why do you need so many options and menus to just create a simple text and box with no decorations? I have been working on this simple one page for hours. Why is the menu taking up much space on my screen? Who is the designer of this useless software?

This software is a piece of crap.

Just look at the railing of the fire escape on this old brick building in downtown Seattle. It is not viewed by public since it is not facing the main street but look at the detail on this. It is beautiful.

I learned from this for the software design. When we design a software, we just don't make it look pretty and function, but attention to detail behind the scene is as important.

This is a phishing email I received today. I know this is a phishing because...

(3) They used my email address as my name

If you receive something like this email, do not open it.

What is Phishing?

I put it back in the original box it came in. If I remember right, I spent $2,000 at CompUSA. Originally it had 1GB RAM and 120GB Hard Disk. It now has 4GB RAM and 300GB Hard Disk. It will go on the display case at PSPINC HQ Lobby. This MacBook Pro served very well.

At End of Long Holidays

5月

5日

May 7th will be the first working day out of long holiday in Japan started on April 27th. This is called Golden Week holiday in Japan.

What is the significance of that to PSPINC in the US?

Well, for many people in Japan, this is the first day of work after 9 off days. That means on Monday we can expect as m,ugh as 10 times the email traffic as usual. This Monday puts more stress on our servers than any other days of the year.

Our server software is optimized enough so that it should have no problem, but just in case, we are standing by to act if there is something.
