People must be scurrying on Douban.com.

Effectively filtering information has been becoming increasingly time-consuming.

Good authentic Chinese dishes make my stomach merry. However, they're hard to come by in Montreal.

Well, that's one of the compromises that I have to take for living in a relatively fair, rich, and democratic country.

新浪微博 搞的 新浪微群 貌似蠻有意思的。

其 title 裡寫道：“新浪微群-大微博里的小圈子”。

沉思於唱、沉思於怨

非君唱樂府 

誰識怨秋深 

--唐代李賀之《巴童答》

The capitalism system is merciless. But, there are other systems co-existing for people in the U.S. and Canada.

Many entrepreneurs mistake "possible" for "probable".

That's right, what measures do you take in order to make it from "possible" into the realm of "probable"?

What we think we can accomplish always is tardier in arriving than what we anticipated in the beginning.

Dude, shun dogmatism, will ya?

Reputation is a fragile thing. It can get sullied very very easily.

"情義倆心知。"

Sigh. I tend to be too serious for mirthful enjoyment of life.

Voidness is something that every man must resist.

White under the sunshine.

I like the taste of the "Quaker" Trail Mix bar of the "Nut Medley" flavor.

Now I know, youthful pop singers tend to be more or less blithe.

And that's one of the reasons why they fail to attract adult fans.

Western life sort of sets me free, in certain senses.

I guess the current WiFi protocols will appear prototypical when we look back at them in twenty years.

Does it REALLY do good to non-public companies when they mercilessly lay off their workers?

"Sir, how many degrees will be enough for me to have?" "The more the merrier."

P.S. I feel glad that universities haven't made postdoc an academic degree yet(?). If one day that happens, what degree should a professor or academic researcher with, say, twenty years of research work under his belt, be entitled to? Assume that he wants to leave the ivory tower for the real world and work in it, can he claim that he has a post-post-postdoc degree? :-)

Eclectically integrating ideas is hard.

Yeah, should I deal with problems mirthfully instead?

For different people, the web can be a place of delight, a place for mirth, or both.

For me, it is largely the first case.

Businesses can never desist from updating themselves.

My own ambition of getting more and better information bitch-slaps me with info. overload.

The web kicks butt for finding quality information!

Dude, be mindful of both the explicit and the implicit decisions you make.

As a matter of fact, many Chinese people are only largely encouraged by extrinsic motivation.

I've become to like Jazz.

It relaxes my mind.

魚貫。

It seems that my wireless router has become the bottleneck.

Every person comes away from his alma mater intellectually, in a matter of years.

So, especially in this era of lifelong learning, which university or institution a person graduates from shouldn't be overly fussed about.

We Chinese, as individuals, tend to be more or less dogmatic.

Ever since the Han Dynasty during which the Confucianism gained dominance in China, Chinese people have become quite doctrinaire.

News of every single Android device has been bruited about since around two or three years ago.

Google's eclectic Android team has been working very very hard.

Huh. Free BSD is distinct from Linux.

Typically, formal education only defines a career person's alpha, not his beta. And not to mention his mid career self.

By its nature, the field of investment is risky business.

So the volatility of the fortunes of individual financial firms should reflect the natural and unavoidable failures of risky undertakings, which after all is what their businesses are all about.

Streams of light break out here and there. How does an eye grasp them?

The ever flourishing spreading of the web and personal computing devices such as smart phones and tablets makes every one of us more eclectically sophisticated.

Well, I've become to more and more appreciate living in democratic societies.

I guess that the number of nights of carousals have been receding in many nations, due to the deeper influences, or imposition, of the globalization led by the West.

The ecstasy of accomplishment mutters that you should bide your time.

More and more telecoms and consumers are streaming to 4G telecommunication.

Many elders are so out of it.

They should streamline their own individual processes of information intake by embracing the channels of the web and the 3G / 4G network.

"To read later" is an important layer for managing information.

The stream of Jazz music via Douban.FM keeps tapping my heart.

Changing a web page's URL is bad practice for any website.

It seems that Western countries have always been streamlined and geared, through their own hectic ways, to spread their influences all over the world.

One must be eclectic instead of being doctrinaire.

The number of indiscreet remarks in an internet forum reflects the quality of that forum.

My naive guess is that financial firms should have skin in the game and they can't be allowed to act as mere middlemen.

I used to be a doctrinaire person.

Every single contrivance of new Android device, either phone or tablet, by a competing firm, pushes the ecosystem of Android on a positively breakneck way.

Hooray! My Moto Milestone phone will be updated to Froyo, the Android 2.2, in this Q1.

Love that. Love Motorola.

Every accomplishment is a jocund party for the heart to celebrate.

Different individuals more or less contrive their own ways, on different front lines.

Wintry blows and flurries, in the broad sphere.

Many countries must be clamping down potential unrests by various measures, given the backdrop of the uprising of violent protests in Mideast and North Africa.

Information overload has cost me double amounts of time: the time it takes by itself, and the time I spend on tackling it.

The rain drops are being driven by the roaring winds to lash and whip at the windowpanes, in the broad pale daylight.

I for one suspect that Goldman Sachs conjured a $50 Billion bubble out of Facebook, which for many, certainly not all, users is a platform of information overload and requests overload.

Oh, I'm fond of David Cameron's sharp wisdom and words.

Wow. Canada's population is around 5 times of that of Libya. That makes me proud. :-)

Man, Canada even is the 36th most populous country in the world! Well, I guess that the gigantic number of the population of China, which was my home country, has blindfolded me so that I haven't been able to appreciate the fact that Canada is actually a relatively populous nation on the Earth. Well.

I for one admire those great minds that can conjure up powerful theories and models.

You know what? Maybe among the strongest moments of a democratic political system are those when lots of people in it take to the street and protest.

Well, it's said that New Zealand is very prone to earthquakes. Is the long term situation over there worse than in Japan?

People should consider to gradually move out of there.

When can we do web dev without further ado?

Maybe there always are more than few financial firms which fudge their figures.

CBC News should contrive a better Android app.

How could BBC or its contractor conjure up such an ugly duckling Android app for the ever elegant BBC? :-)

Android Online Radio (for BBC).

Oftentimes true masters can conjure great results out of something which is of no value in the untrained eyes.

The default Chrome browser doesn't render XML pages in a user-friendly way.

What inconvenience.

The things of Captcha and reCAPTCHA are intriguing.

蔡康永，及其父蔡天鐸，貌似很有意思。

Human beings really are prone to indiscretions.

A man must ask himself, "what sort of man do you want to be?"

Years of grooming produce an unforced mien.

Today's light around 6:20AM conjured up my memories of the lights in my young and past days in China.

Trade and diplomatic accords among countries are typically the tips of the iceberg.

What are the real underneath forces of them?

What sort of consumer to be is at your discretion.

Cry me a river, truth.

I had used to be an oaf.

It's up to every individual to use his discretion in deciding how to expend his time.

Man, that's actually an enormous responsibility, in certain senses.

Nowadays, I really think that for most average Joes and average Janes in China, moving into Shanghai or Beijing is a retrograde step.

(Pic from http://goo.gl/9EDgL)

Discretion is omnipresent.

I've been having marginal meals lately.

Software guys have to put in a lot of sweat equity.

I don't think McGill U.'s Computer Science department is up-to-date enough, seriously.

Many negotiations and organizing take place discreetly, in every single significant country's political landscape.

For instance, Canada seems to have been working hard to have give and take with the Organization of American States.

Oftentimes discreet distresses are hard to discern on people's faces.

The appearance that JavaScript imparts to a web page appeals, and even pleases sometimes.

The nobility of classic music sometime is rejective.

YouTube video clips are discrete. They should make those continuously play, shouldn't they?

The mojo of human feelings.

Some people think different fields are discrete.

But many times they are not.

It seems that I love communication.

Well, nowadays, comparing to the Chrome browser, Firefox has got a face for radio, sort of.

Music video - 情人劫 - 老狼

Lyrics copied from http://goo.gl/Lp4NH and then corrected by me:

情人劫
作曲:郁冬    作词:郁冬

你就靠在地铁的站牌这么望着我
突然发现心中翻动一团未曾熄灭的火
很多朋友早已经走出我的生活
我所有的梦却只有你全都看过
记得我们分手那年你受了一点点委屈
今天我还不时琢磨那些点点滴滴
地铁列车接上所有的人匆匆驶过
霎时站台上就剩下我们两个
当你走后我终于知道
在你面前我在劫难逃
那些照片早已烧成了灰烬
可那些回忆怎么点也点不着
你的眼睛让我终于知道
你的怀抱让我在劫难逃
那些日子早已经无处寻找
可那些回忆跟着我奔跑
分手多年后我终于知道
再次相逢我在劫难逃
那些日子早已经无处寻找
可那些回忆跟着我奔跑

A potential customer always makes an inquiry first.

Discreetness of some people seems to be present since their very young ages.
