Upgraded to WordPress 2.5.1

Published by Forager under web

This is my first post after upgrading to WP 2.5.1

Liked the WYSIWYG editor feature. The tags may help too.

Still have one problem: search result from Google still points to my home page but not individual blog entry. Not sure how to fix that yet.

I am caught between Search-friendly and useability.

Calendar:
1. First choice: cheap, has everything I need, looks simple too.

2. 2nd choice: a little pricy, looks pretty complicated, too much a tool by itself.
http://www.extrosoft.com/ ($50)

Community:
1. http://www.xoops.org/
XooPS: pretty complicated. Seems to have most of things. Widely supported/community. Many component for download.

WIP Bejing Conference Notes

Published by Forager under web

1.卜卫:The limitation of current Internet study: the limitation of pure quantative approach->standard survey questionaire->uniform view point->mainstream vs. marginal circle (边缘群体): e.g. question peasant women: what TV show you like most, answer: martial arts. Urban user vs. rural user (minority) of Net Bar.
2. Guo Liang: Entertainment Super Highway
– marginality: what peaked the most is also what has been lacking:
e.g. more people use Net to connect with colleagues and friends than with family members; more people find Net useful to improve governance and politics than other nations; more people with similar political views connection through the Net.
3. 姜奇平:GNC (Gross National Coolness) or 国民幸福总值 (an article in Foreign Policy/Affairs)
卡尼曼:《回到边泌》;青木昌彦
4. WIP Japan:
Net penatration: 2/3 (2005), 90% youth, high broadband, mobile internet user outnumbers pc internet, more women mobile internet users than male.
Bill Dutton: why time-diary? why measure time consumption? 5 min of knowledge vs. 5 hrs of information
5. Macau: 100% PC online, 80% broadband.
6. Hong Kong: 115% mobile phone penatration rate but less than 10% mobile internet user population.
Chinese content access almost 80% (2005) from 60% several years ago. Online shopping not taking off: fluctuate b/w 12-24%
7. Vebel: France
triple play: TV, Phone and Internet, 25% individual online, <10% household.
