Matt Raible's Tips for Productivity and Happiness at Work

Tips for Productivity and Happiness at Work

A link to Matt Raible's Tips for Productivity and Happiness at Work appeared on del.icio.us frontpage this morning. It really interested me because I feel I am not a very productive type of person. I checked it out right away and found it very useful. The tips I like most are "Write stuff down" and "Work disconnected". I personally find that I am more productive when I write to-do lists and work at a coffee shop like Starbucks. So, Matt, I do agree with you!

Tips: Mac OS X: Full ANSI Color Support in Terminal.app

I'm trying to switch my Java development platform from Windows XP to Mac OS X Tiger. Wondering how to colorize the Terminal screen, I spent some time googling. From the discussions at the end of this page: macosxhints.com - Add full ANSI color support to Terminal.app Here's a summary of how to enable it: With bash shell as default, simply add export TERM=xterm-color [I prefer this for Linux compatibility] or export TERM=dtterm in the ~/.profile (single-user) or /etc/profile (system-wide) Color terminal is enabled. Use ' ls -G ' (the -G enables color output) to test. Add alias ls='ls -G' in the profile file for convenience. Keywords: mac-os-x , unix , terminal , shell , tips

iTunes: Error 261 while Burning Data CDs/DVDs

Apple Discussions: 261 error while burning MP3 CD. I usually put an aphostrophe (') in the name of playlists and was having error 261 burning CD/DVD data discs since iTunes 5.1. Upgrading to iTunes 6.0 for Windows doesn't help. I was burning a music DVD this morning and had Error 261 again. So I went to Apple iTunes Discussions site and look for a thread on this. Viola! There are many people having the same problem as mine. The thread ends at a point where someone removing ampersands, the '&' symbols, from their playlists and could avoid this error. I tried removing aphostrophes from the name of my playlist because aphostrophe falls into the kind of non-alphabet characters that needs escaping in some programming languages. It works!!

Microsoft Office Outlook Connector 12.1 Beta 2 Crashes Thai Language Input in Outlook 2007

It's been more than a year since I last blogged. I've been busy with work and also don't know what to blog. Here comes my new findings: Microsoft Office Outlook Connector 12.1 Beta 2 + Outlook 2007 + Thai Language Input = CRASH This has also been proven here . I downloaded the Outlook Connector the other night for improved supports to Windows Live Hotmail -- only to find that whenever I start typing e-mails in Thai, i.e., hit the "language switch" key Outlook simply crashes! I googled for " outlook 2007 crash language switch " this morning and find someone having the same Outlook Connector insta.led and the same problem as mine. So, Outlook Connector is most likely the cause of trouble. I uninstalled Outlook Connector this morning and, yes, typing in Thai doesn't crash Outlook 2007 anymore!
