Received 1st PayPal Payment!
Received my first ever PayPal payment today! It was the half-payment for a small website revamp project I’m working on now.

Soul Searching (Work Experience)
Counting co-op experiences (internship) and excluding freelancing, I had accumulated about 6-7 years of work experience. With the six 4-month co-op work terms, I was given the opportunity to try out different jobs (researcher, web developer), working in different fields (opto-electronics, software), and for different companies and organizations. I still remember vividly my first work […]

Unlocking iPhone
My brother got a new phone earlier and gave me his old one. Without knowing anything about unlocking/jailbreaking, I accidentally updated the phone’s OS and that apparently updated its baseband to one that doesn’t seem to be unlock-able at the moment. Don’t think there’s a way to downgrade the baseband and upgrading it will likely […]

L.A.M.P.
Much of my time this week was spent on setting up my L.A.M.P server. I couldn’t think of any better way to reuse the many old and abandoned desktops lying around at home. With a platform to do some elaborate testing, I’m one step closer to starting my website design business again…
