TeamViewer
介紹一下這個軟體，我個人很喜歡；不需要安裝，而且如果只是私人使用的話它是免費的。
用這個軟體的話，就不需要知道怎麼改一些有的沒的設定而輕鬆作到遠端協助(Remote Support)、遠端桌面(Remote Desktop)跟報告或會議中分享桌面(Meeting/Presentation)。
使用上超級簡單，可以說是Remote Access for Dummies。TeamViewer開啟以後，它會自動產生一組帳號跟密碼。如果要讓別人可以跟你分享他的桌面，或是遠端協助你，只要把那個帳號跟密碼給對方，對方就可以經由TeamViewer讓你看他的桌面，或是幫助你操控你的電腦。除此之外，你也可以讓它成為你電腦的常駐程式，然後為你的電腦設定一個固定的密碼，這樣你也可以在別處使用TeamViewer來操控你的電腦而達到遠端桌面的效果。
舉一些我自己使用的例子：
1. Presentation。之前碩士口試的時候，有一個委員在另一國，所以沒辦法出現，我就用TeamViewer讓他在他的螢幕上看我的投影片。他似乎還滿喜歡這個idea，剛開始我忘了關掉"讓對方可以操控"的選項，他還開玩笑說他如果想讓我講快一點，就按下一頁。
2. 遠端協助。因為爸媽在家有時候要問我電腦為什麼這樣那樣，可是我看不到螢幕實在很難troubleshoot，所以就請他們開TeamViewer然後我直接幫他們設定(勝過千言萬語阿)。打開TeamViewer比做很多的事情都容易太多了，這樣要幫在遠方的長輩或朋友設定電腦就非常的方便。
3. 遠端桌面。讓TeamViewer成為家裡電腦的常駐程式之後，我就可以從筆電操控我的電腦，而且TeamViewer還可以讓我很簡單的從家裡電腦傳檔案到我的筆電。其實Windows要設定遠端桌面非常容易，尤其我桌電跟筆電都是用XP，可是我還是寧願用TeamViewer，因為，第一個，如果直接用Windows的遠端桌面，兩台解析度不一樣的話，會把桌面上的圖示和很多視窗大小什麼的都搞亂掉；第二個是，我從筆電登入，那桌電那邊就被登出了，我回家就又得登入(雖然是不用花幾秒啦...)。用TeamViewer就都不用煩這些了，遠端的電腦就只是一個視窗罷了，操控完關掉，easy。
4. 跨平台。有沒有那麼方便阿?! 我用PC，有個朋友用MAC，我還是可以遠端協助，超級簡單，什麼都不用設定，太方便了。Windows, MAC, iphone/ipod touch 跟Linux?! 這簡直就是遠端桌面/協助for dummies，無痛協助，讚!
其他還有別的功能我就沒用了，總之很方便摟!

Spike - 臭臉 & 新飼料
前一陣子(也滿久了，因為很久沒寫blog了...)心血來潮換了plurk的背景，剛換完自己很愛，還看了很久。那是四張Spike的大頭照，是從我比較喜歡的幾張照片中截取他的大頭來的。結果有刺友看了說他每一張都看起來好像在生氣，還有人說他天生囧臉(該不會是因為我太愛用囧字而被影響的吧XD)。
經過我分析可能會這樣的原因有兩個: 1.真的天生就長生氣樣。其實偶爾也有無辜樣啦，所以應該不是這個原因，之前有張出浴照看起來就還好，所以應該不是這個原因。 2.每次照相都真的在生氣。阿，這應該就是真的原因了。因為每次照相之前都是我去把他從溫暖的被窩中挖出來的，所以都還在生起床氣。然後一起床就要被放在一個很亮的地方，還要忍受有一個黑色的龐然大物一直發出嘶撕聲而且繞著他轉來轉去(相機啦，不是我)，所以應該是真的在生氣啦！
不過生氣照還是很帥氣摟！男刺不壞，女人不愛嘛~ 這小傢伙大部分的照片都是酷酷的，充滿男刺氣概，有時尚男模的味道XD (我自以為)。不過，如果真的很不爽的話，也是會有流氓樣的...
昨天晚上買了新飼料，一回家就興奮的給了他一顆看小少爺反應如何。他是一個小心謹慎的孩子，所以聞了又聞，猶豫了很久，不過大概是知道我不會害他(在獸醫院吃難吃藥的那次不是我餵的，是獸醫餵的:P)，況且我又一直把東西湊在他鼻子前似乎不會放棄，所以就開尊口嚐了。除了比較難咬以外，看來反應還可以。剛吃完我一直聽見一個聲音，起初以為他還在嚼，後來才發現他在做泡泡要塗在身上。那次在獸醫院吃難吃藥也是有塗泡泡，所以我只敢確定對他來說這是新的口味，可是還不確定是可以接受還是不行。昨晚暫時先放了三分之一的新飼料，準備今天早上再看試吃情況。
今天早上發現，反而舊的剩了一堆，新的幾乎全吃完了！我一則以喜，一則以憂；喜的是這新飼料他可以接受，不然那一大包都丟掉真的太浪費了；憂的是我放的份量是跟平常一樣，就算先把新的都吃掉，舊的也不該剩這麼多。希望不是新的太難咬，害他吃到累了。舊的飼料我有混南瓜，他似乎沒有很喜歡，可是之前沒有選擇的時候，他都會吃，看來新飼料也得混南瓜才能算公平競爭。今天晚上再來試試好了。
來講一下我新買的飼料。
看了很久，挑了很久，最後決定買這個。第一個當然是看Protein跟Fat的比例，這個是寫Protein 40%以上，Fat 9%以上，似乎還OK。另外看到一家的飼料是Protein 34%跟Fat 8 %，也不錯。最後會選擇這個的原因是想給Spike換換口味。一般貓食不外乎就是chicken(應該是最多的)，salmon，turkey跟lamb這幾種比較普遍。我不敢給他買魚的，因為印象中有說海鮮對刺蝟不好，但是因為記性不好，沒有記的很清楚什麼可以什麼不行，所有魚的我都不敢買，也就沒注意營養值了。其他比較符合高蛋白低脂肪的幾乎都是雞的，根本沒什麼選擇。舊的飼料就是chicken的，現在找到這個turkey的就買了。回家打開以後，覺得還滿香的，幾乎有種衝動想嚐嚐看，然後那個kibble的尺寸還滿小的，看起來滿適合小型動物(結果Spike咬起來還是看起來很辛苦，可能還是得泡一下水吧...)。目前確定了至少不會浪費，太好了(真不知道自己在興奮什麼，又不是我的食物)。
其實Spike也不是那麼常在生氣的啦(雖然今天才咬我 囧)，附一張比較不酷的照片好了。

安怎?沒看過流氓喔?

Unlimited Text Message
What can you do with text message?
Contacting your friend when you can't really talk?
OK, then what can you do with unlimited text message?
Well, in order to make the extra bucks that you pay each month worth, there have to be some other things that you can utilize text messages for.
Of course, you can contact your friends with it A LOT. But they have to be paying unlimited text message and doesn't mind you bothering them constantly just because you want to make the money worth. Besides, do you really have that many things to talk about?
Actually, there are a lot of things that you can do with text message nowadays. Since "unlimited text" has become a must-have feature, many things are now available at your finger tips.
1) Google SMS (46645 or 466453)
Well, it's not as powerful as the Google engine itself of course, but it sure would be helpful sometimes. You can check definition of a word, direction, the weather, movie and else.
2) Email/Text
You can actually send text message to an email account. I've tried myself and I know that gmail and hotmail can successfully receive the text message I sent from my phone. Of course, if text message can be received through emaill account, you can also reply and send back to the phone.
Your phone's email address will differ from your phone provider. Some major providers' address are listed below:
AT&T: [your 10 digit number]@txt.att.net
T-mobile: [your 10 digit number]@tmomail.net
Verizon: [your 10 digit number]@vtext.com
Sprint: [your 10 digit number]@messaging.sprintpcs.com
I know there are a lot more, but they are very easy to find through Google. (I can help you find yours if you need, let me know)
My friends, if you have my number, feel free to email/text me (my carrier is AT&T.) If you don't have my number, feel free to ask me.
3) Facebook
You can actually do a lot on Facebook through text message. To get started, send "f" (without quotation) to 32665. Wait for the confirmation code to be sent back. Then, go to Facebook -> Settings -> Mobile -> Already receive a mobile confirmation code? Then just type in your confirmation code. You'll be all set after setting your preference. I seldom use it cause I still like to see the pictures and stuff. To me, the benefit of it is not so much to "facebook" on my phone, but to get immediate notification if someone is trying to contact me through Facebook.
4) All the other stuff
Like plurk, twitter and else. Here is a website that provides this kinda service for free: http://ping.fm. It includes a lot of social networks that you can think of. I believe there are a lot of other websites that provide this too. Find your own favorite. I don't use this much, but it sure can be useful if you are the kind of person who enjoys sharing your current status anytime, anywhere (ps. xxxx is sitting on the toilet)
These probably are not all, but they are all that I use/used. So, don't pay your text message for nothing. Make use of it!
