Holly Her
by Kakuji Funegata
 
Holly came with high heels and ponytail,
Rushing in the office like a cool breeze.
She decides that her work should never fail,
Asking for help and answers with a 'please'.
 
The most hardworking Holly does know well
What cloths to catch up with her lady grace.
Although the shopping does be hard like hell,
She always does have something to amaz

The Singing Lisa
by Kakuji Funegata

 

Lisa, sitting beside me, loves to sing
With the same joyfulness and random rhymes.
Although you may not catch what she does mean,
You'd join her after so many times.

 

She can make quite some strange naughty faces,
Strange enough to make you laugh to the heart.
You'll see how her short whistle amazes,
Which can tear all your clouds in mind apart.

 

 

For Allie

by Funegata Kakuji

She has bright eyes, warm eyes, a lady's eyes,
Just as two black pearls under the moonrise.
She has warming breaths and a tender face
And that her tender being in various ways.

Whatever the styles of her flowing hair,
She is ever-glowingly bright and fair.

 After The Fright
by Funegata Kakuji

That was a night of fright
When suddenly she stopped and cried.
He turned and asked her why,
She kept silence until the tears dried.

Then she raised her hands,
Grabbing his with an unexpected strenghth.
He waited, trying to be humane,
When her tears came out again.

Her hands were so cold and tight
And eyes so shiningly bright.
His reason held no clue,
Only heart beat for true.

There was no denial
That for a love he did fall.
But the mood was so fragile
That a kiss could end it all.

    'Go home, shall we?'
    'We shall, indeed.'

很早就开始用Gmail，现在Gmail已经成了我最重要的2个email账户之一。最近几周才开始全面使用Google Doc和Google Calendar。在此，我想强烈推荐大家使用Google Doc和Google Calendar。

 

为什么要推荐Google Doc和Google Calendar呢？

 

难道是因为Google Doc比微软的Word和Excel还要好用吗？不是，Google Doc确实不如微软的Word和Excel好用。难道是因为Google Calendar比微软的Outlook好用吗？不是，Google Calendar也确实不如微软的Outlook好用。要从本身的文档和日历功能及易用性上来比较，Google的这两个服务跟微软的Word、Excel、Outlook是没有办法相比的。

 

那么，为什么我认为Google的服务值得推荐呢？原因在于：

 

（1）数据维护方便。无论何时何地，只要在联网的机器上就能够存取文档和日历信息。换句话说，只要联网，我就能存取我的数据，不用担心数据的版本问题，也不用担心因为“不同的数据放在不同的地方”或者“相同的数据的不同版本放在不同的地方”所带来的数据维护上的负担。对于我这样工作离不开网络的人来说，使用Google的服务是没

还在吭哧吭哧读About Face 2.0之时，About Face 3（http://www.amazon.com/About-Face-Essentials-Interaction-Design/dp/0470084111/）已经在2007年5月出版了，并且一如既往地获得了广大读者褒贬不一的评价（Amazon三星半）。Alan Cooper就是这样一位个性强烈的“牛”人——言辞激烈，毫不掩饰，生动活泼，冷嘲热讽，却又总能说得有理有据，表述他在交互设计领域积累多年的真知灼见。他的书得到褒贬不一的评价，大约是理所当然。

在Amazon上，对于About Face 3这样的好书，页面上的“Customers who bought this item also bought”里面列出的书都是值得阅读的：

• The Inmates Are Running the Asylum: Why High Tech Products Drive Us Crazy and How to Restore the Sanity (2nd Edition) by Alan Cooper

第2版我只有ebook，所以应验了“ebook不能读”的魔咒，到现在还没看。我还是喜欢纸书……

• Designing Interfaces: Patterns for Effective Interaction Design by Jenifer Tidwell

正在编辑的一本书，非常优秀！用我的老话说就是：不看白活了。

• The Design of Ever

1. 对Rasmus Lerdorf的主题演讲的回忆：

1）Web用户的行为能够改进网站自身（举例：Flickr可以追踪用户的兴趣）；

2）用户的每一次点击都应该能够帮助网络更好地服务用户；

3）Why people contribute to open source?

• self-interest(to solve their own problems)
• self-expression_r
• hormones(interaction among people)
• Improve the world(kind of strange people)
  

4）Why users contribute to the web?

(Flickr: Without users' contributions it would be nothing.)

• self-interest(to solve their own problems)
• self-expression_r
• hormones(interaction among people)
• Improve the world(kind of strange people)
  

5）PHP 6: Improvements on Unicode facility.

6）Rasmus Lerdorf on PHP:

• PHP is designed to be a templating system.
• Any templating languages invevitably grow into a ful

阿西莫夫好像是在讲机器人，其实讲的是人。

《黑客帝国》好像是在讲人，其实讲的是机器人。

两者都做得这么绝，我们就只有赞叹的份儿了。
