Sixapart release a important update to v3.33. It is asecurity updates.
It is not disclouse what security issue in the previous version.
Sixapart said:
If you are running a version of Movable Type older than 3.2, it is especially imperative that you to migrate immediately to version 3.33 due to the importance of fixes for the current issues as well as several significant security enhancements which have been made since your version was released.
To update from MT3.32, just download the patch file. Decomess it and copy to the MT installation folder.
When login, the version is 3.33 now.
Google just inform us that it can provide the Google Apps for Domain.
You only need to to get these free services.
It provide Email, Chat, Calendar,Domain web pages .
To setup Email, you need to change your DNS setting to use Google's service. Such as MX records. I entered one of my Domain name, FreeinOutBoard.com. It is automaticly recognized by Google that this domain use 1and1 service.
Before use all other three services, you need to confirm the ownership of your domain by uploading a HTML file.
I tried a lot of RSS aggregator program. Some one is good, some one is bad. I used SharpReader over three month and would like to recommand it to RSS readers.

1) It can handles all RSS versions, ATOM 0.3 and 1.0.
2) Support international character-set, including Chinese
3) Notification popup when new items come in. Update interval can be set as you like.
4) Backup all your RSS list by export subscriptions.
5) It is free.
I installed PC-cillin Internet Security 2006 in the office computer yesterday. The PC Magazine give the fair Editor rating to it and also give the review on 11.21.05.
PC-cillin's antivirus is excellent and its privacy/fraud protection elements do their job well, but problems with the firewall, spyware, and antispam modules prevent us from recommending this suite.
Because I use this computer in a Lan behind the firewall, so I think this one is good enough for me. I also use Firefox instead of IE, Antifraud toolbar is only working on IE. I don't care.
This program need to be trained for my own browser practice.
A lot of people use gloves when touch the water, painting, etc. It is very important to protect your skin.
What glove should we look for?
There are several important considerations. First, gloves offer barrier protection both for the health care worker and the patient to guard against contact with blood, other body fluids, and microorganisms. Latex has been in use for about 100 years, and has proven barrier protective capability. In a series of studies, Korniewicz and co-workers have shown that vinyl gloves have higher leakage rates than latex (less barrier effectiveness), and are therefore less suitable for surgery. They reported that although both vinyl and latex examination gloves provide protection to the user, latex gloves maintain their integrity longer under in-use conditions. The barrier effectiveness of synthetic rubber gloves is not as well established at this time as for latex.
Second, a glove needs to be comfortable. One should be able to don it (slip one’s hand into it) easily, and then be able to perform surgery as if you weren’t even wearing a glove at all. Again, latex excels - the synthetic materials are frequently stiffer than latex, and less comfortable to wear.
Third, cost is important. Latex gloves are usually less expensive than synthetic rubber gloves.
Today, I have a problem because I run a strange program. It can not finish and show me error of .NET.
After that, I loss all my shortcuts in quick launch bar, and all shortcuts on desktop. And even my emails in Outlook express and bookmarks in IE.
It is big big proglems.
Here I just want to tell you how to re-create the shortcup of Show Desktop. I searh it by google, and found the Microsoft official solution "How to re-create the Show Desktop icon on the Quick Launch toolbar". It is last review on September 14, 2006. It means that a lot of people have the same problem.
Let me show you how to re-built it.
1. Click Start , click Run, type notepad, and then click OK.
2. In Notepad, type the following text on individual lines:
[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3
[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop
3. On the File menu, click Save As, and then save the file to your desktop as Show Desktop.scf.
Note Notepad might automatically append a .txt extension to the file name. Remove this extension if present. The file name should be Show Desktop.scf.
My boss has a problem when he click a URL shortcut. It is to load the webpage in a current IE windows instead of open it in a new IE window.
He didn't like it and ask my help.
I have a close look to the Internet option>Advance.
There is a real option checkbox related to this issue.
tools>internet options >advanced >uncheck the box "reuse windows for launching shortcuts"
In Eweek issue on Aug., 7, 2006, there is a article "Blog Talk: Vista VS. Ubuntu".
There are 20 people said in different point of view.
Even I still use the Windows XP as my main operation system, the Ubuntu is my next choice.
Don said he want photoshop and all his windows software can run on Linux. This is a silly thought.
You don't need the Photoshop, you can use Gimp.
And almost all windows software can be replced by Linux software and you don't need to pay for them. See my software list.
On Sep, 14, I just downloaded and installed Google Earth 4.0.2080 beta. It has new version yesterday.
This time it is Google Earth 4.0.2091 now.
If you already have Google Earth 4.0.2080, you will not get update information by check update in the program.
You have to go to http://earth.google.com/index.html to download the full version to update it.
If you want to buy a web server, and you want to buy HP product, you can go to here to choose by Server buying guide.
There are 7 types servers in the table.
» File and print
» Small business suites
» Email and messaging
» Web server
» Domain controller
» Database
» Citrix or terminal services
For example, you want a Web server, you will find following options, Apache or Microsoft IIS servers.
This very depends on your web application used in web site. For ASP or ASP.Net, IIS is best bet. For Perl, PHP, MySQL, Apache is your choice.
If you choose Microsoft IIS, you have another two choices, one is tower, one is rank.
Google Earth is a so interesting free tool I used so ofter. So I check if it has a update regularly.
It is a celebration for first anniversary of Google Earth. It is Beta 4
I downloaded Google Earth 4 beta in July. It is 4.00.1693.
I knew Google has new beta with some new features from someone's blogs. I want to check the update in the Google Earth. It popped up a windows say, "There are no updates available at this time." I can not update it throught the update facility included.
Now I went to Google Earth website, and download the New Beta 4 and installed it in my computer.
I checked the About information. It shows me 4.0.2080.
Windows monthly updates come again.

When Google first launched Google Pack referrals in May 2006, it is only available to USA publishers. Just noticed from Jensence's Blog, Google Pack is also available in Canada. Great news.
If you want to
I login the Google Adsense, and find more countries' publisher can use this referral. Including Traditional Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish and English.
I still remember Google Pack was only six software inside.
I focuse on the Search Engine Optimization area. This is very interesting issue for the website owner.
As I mentioned in Auguest, I make a new Blog for SEO and WebSite Marketing in Chinese.
I learned from a lot of sources, including this following book.
Search Engine Optimization - An Hour a Day
This book priced $19.79 on Amazon.
List Price is $29.99.
I bought a new Philips Universal Remote Control at Wal-Mart this afternoon to replace the old RCA TV control.
The old one is still working except the volume up button. It is need 4 AAA batteries.
I tried my best to fix this button including open the controler and cleaning. All failed.
I saw the Universal Remote Control is about $9 with 3 devices, such as TV, VCR/DVD, Cable/Sat. This 3 devices controler has lowerst price. Some 4 or 5 devices may double the price.
When I install the batteries and try to search the code, firstly I did not success with the direct code entry.
It has a list of codes for different brand devices.
Yesterday, I mentioned Able Auction. Now let's look at the live auciton online.
This service is supported by NAALive.com. It is a realtime bidding system for auction companies.
This is a screenshoot of Vancouver Office Furniture & Equipment Auction which is held this morning from 10AM to almost 2:40PM. There are 737 lots.
My bid price is too low to win.
Acutally I feel some people's price is not reasonable. Say, a 19" LCD is saled at $165. It is about $200 to $290 in the computer store.
Do you try the auction? Now you don't need to go to the auction house.
Online bidding is aviliable through Able Auction.
This company serves both British Columbia and Alberta.
I registered an account in Able, and sign up one auction tomorrow.
In online bidding, I can pre-bid through an proxy before the date of auction.
The following is my bids list.
I just update my two other Blog to MovableType 3.32 from 3.31.
It looks so smooth that I don't feel any problem.
To update your MT from 3.31 to 3.32.
1) Download the MovableType 3.32 package from SixApart site.
2) Unzip the package file
3) Upload all files into your CGI folder, and confirm to overwrite your original files.
I have a site driven by Access database. Today I compacted this database and browse the web page which will access this database.
I got the error message, "Selected collating sequence not supported by the operating system."
It looks so strange, I do nothing except compacting.
The real reason is because this database file is created in another computer. The "New Database Sort Order" are different in these two computers.
To correct it, do followiong steps:
1. Open this database .
2. On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the General tab.
3. Make sure that the New Database Sort Order is set to General and then click OK.
4. Then compact and reparie this database.
Upload it to the webserver. The error is disappeared.
SixApart updated MovableType to 3.32 on August 28, 2006.
David Yin's Blog is just upgraded to 3.31 two weeks ago. Do I need to update it?
Let's review the new features or bug fixes.
