Ooh! What do these buttons do?!

As you have seen on the sidebar, I have put there some buttons. Let me state the reasons why I have put them there:


I am currently using Mandrake 10 at home. It is my effort to move on to open source software ever since my conscience started bugging me. Not that I don't use Windows anymore. I still do, actually, because in the office our machines run on Windows XP. Mandrake 10 is worth a try. Combine it with GNOME or KDE, it's fairly easy to use. It has a software manager so one doesn't have to go to the command line to install packages. It's not as intimidating as I thought it would be but there are some aspects that I have yet to explore.

Get Firefox!
Firefox is absolutely great. Ever since I used Firefox, I have not used Internet Explorer again, unless the site I am browsing indicates that it is better to use IE. That's what happened to me one time that I tried browsing a Microsoft website, I think. I love the tabbed browsing, the extensions, the themes... You just got to experience Firefox^_^


I have just joined this community. This blog is specifically the one I entered in RBJ. Do check it out. There are a lot of journalling Asians in that community. I have yet to become active in the forums though since I am fairly new to the community. If you want to become part of the RBJ community, just post your request to join there^_^

Blogshares is a game. It's like playing stock markets but the stockholders are bloggers. Very interesting but I am actually still confused at the rules of the game. I guess I am not very much a "stocks" person like others are but I thought it might be fun and educational.

Powered by Blogger
Of course! How could I forget?! I am actually on Blogger^_^ I like using Blogger because I can easily change the template of my blog and put it add ons. Very customizable for a newbie such as myself. Currently, I am using one of the defaults that are available but I am asking my sister Zhynchan to help me out in the layout I want. Another thing I like about Blogger is that you could choose to have your blog on Blogspot or on your webhost.
