two, dos, deux, dua, yee...
I was just backing up files on my notebook when I noticed Gmail is now offering 2GB of storage!!!
2 GB... thats... 67 billion times what hotmail is offering me. Well.. actually a thousand times... but it sure feels much more than that... Even my thumb drive is only an eighth of the size....
And I'm also glad that google is using answers.com as its online dictionary service.
Let's just hope that this gets better, and gmail stayes free. Now, if google could just come up with a better IM system than MSN or AIM, which is OS X compatible...

Still Migrating
I cannot believe it took me 3 days to figure out how the "posted by" field in c.content behaves. I have been looking at the main templates for the first two days, trying to figure out how I can modify the author field. Last night I went straight to the individual archive files and thought that the best way was to actually modify every archive file, while thinking that the new main index template will take care of future entries. Fortunately, looking at the html source knocked me out.
It was only today that I saw another set of templates for archives and learnt that you could change the author name to a nick name.
It feels like Movable Type is wearing a "You Suck" t-shirt and it's forcing me to look.
On another matter, because the two babies are again behaving like a couple of newborns, N decided to cancel our earlier plan to visit the Fulton Fish Market at 2am. It worked out well since it had just started to rain heavily and we could have been stuck or trapped by this spring rain in this awkward hour.

Migrating
I have just migrated from Typepad to Movable Type... well... I'm not sure if I could actually say that - I am still migrating to MT. My Typepad account is still active, and would be for another month, since I was silly enough not to export my blog to my computer before the trial period ended.
I have no experience in html but I like to think that I could do this sort of stuff if I put my mind to it. And since I had become a little familiar to the interface in Typepad, I told myself, why not.
The first thing that I asked myself when creating the most simple of layout was, "What the hell is CSS, and why can't its code be used for the RSS? And what's RSS anyway????".
A day and few hours into setting things up, I am starting to wonder if I've made the right decision.
