			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hingga saat ini berarti sudah sekitar 2 tahun, notebook tercinta ini terinstall Ubuntu Dapper Drake 6.06 LTS, yang hingga saat ini tidak pernah saya upgrade ke versi baru. Dan selama ini saya memang merasa cukup puas, walaupun ada beberapa hal yang sedikit mengganjal. Saya cukup puas karena selama ini saya nyaris tak pernah mengalami masalah yang dapat menggangu pekerjaan saya dalam menggunakan notebook ini. Terasa sekali kinerja komputer ini tidak pernah berkurang, walaupun saya sering meng-install dan uninstall program. Berbeda sekali ketika masih menggunakan Windows yang bila sudah melewati 6 bulan pertama, kinerja-nya mulai sedikit berkurang walaupun update jalan terus. Apalagi kalau sudah sampai 2 tahun, pasti sudah tidak tahan pengen ngeformat dan install ulang.</p>
<p>Notebook yang menggunakan Ubuntu 6.06 LTS ini, selain saya gunakan sebagai komputer untuk melakukan pekerjaan administratif toko, editing gambar, game, juga saya gunakan development server dalam mengembangkan dan menguji coba Perkakasku.com. Sehingga sudah pasti terinstall apache, PHP, dan MySQL. Khusus program yang saya gunakan untuk pengembangan dalam bahasa PHP, saya cukup puas dengan menggunakan Bluefish, yang simple dan powerful. Semua program ini sudah berjasa membantu saya menciptakan Perkakasku.com.</p>
<p>Tapi itu semua bukan berarti linux tidak ada kekurangan. Dengan perkembangan linux yang cepat seperti saat ini, memang terasa sekali versi sebuah distro cepat sekali menjadi usang. Hal ini memang  saya rasakan, di mana setelah 2 tahun program-program di notebook ini sudah tidak dapat lagi menggunakan versi yang terbaru. Karena memang di linux, program dengan versi lebih baru, berarti membutuhkan library versi baru pula. Nah library versi baru seringkali mensyaratkan upgrade versi distro. Memang sebenarnya kan tinggal upgrade, apalagi dari 6.06 bisa langsung upgrade ke 8.04. Tapi bagi saya tidak se-simple itu, karena pertama, untuk upgrade berarti harus melewati internet yang membutuhkan biaya yang tidak sedikit. Belum lagi sekarang listrik masih suka padam, bisa-bisa ketika sedang update listrik mati dan ya tahu sendiri lah bagaimana hasilnya <img src='http://handilim.web.id/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . Kedua, mengupgrade berarti saya harus bayar lagi untuk menggunakan driver modem linuxant, karena linuxant terikat pada kernel, sehingga setelah lebih dari 1 tahun, ganti kernel berarti bayar lagi <img src='http://handilim.web.id/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  . Saya memang sulit melepaskan diri dari driver linuxant ini karena driver ini saya gunakan untuk meng&#8217;hidup&#8217;kan fax, sehingga penerimaan fax tidak harus saya cetak lagi. Ketiga,  ditengah kesibukan toko, dan melayani konsumen di Perkakasku.com, memang sulit sekali untuk mengorbankan waktu dan tenaga untuk mengoprek, karena saya membanyangkan banyak sekali yang harus dibereskan ketika selesai upgrade.  Belum lagi pasti gatal untuk menyoba hal-hal baru di OS baru. Solusi lain, seperti melakukan fresh install, sudah tak ada dalam pikiran saya, karena berarti akan sangat menggangu pekerjaan saya.</p>
<p>Kestabilan Ubuntu LTS, dengan janjinya, yang tetap menjamin kestabilan dan keamanan selama 3 tahun atau hingga 5 tahun untuk program yang berhubungan dengan server. Setidaknya membuat saya tenang dan nyaman dalam menggunakan notebook ini dalam pekerjaan saya. Setidaknya setelah 5 tahun, mungkin saya tidak lagi gatal untuk mengganti OS, tapi mungkin gatal untuk mengganti notebook <img src='http://handilim.web.id/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Dengan demikian, saya patut berterima kasih pada komunitas open source yang telah tanpa pamrih menciptakan OS dan berbagai program yang telah membantu mengembangkan bisnis saya.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Judul di atas merupakan pertanyaan yang ada di benak saya sejak lama, sejak saya iseng-iseng mencoba mobile web pada handphone Siemens S35i saya dahulu. Dari tampilannya, mobile web waktu itu jelas tidak menarik apalagi di  handphone yang cuma 2 warna seperti Siemens S35i tercinta. Kemudian waktu saya coba mobile web kembali sewaktu ganti handphone ke SE T618 ( versi T610 yang cuma keluar di RRC), mobile web waktu itu sudah berwarna, yang saya akses waktu itu cuma portal WAP my life in hand dari XL. Kesannya waktu itu lumayan tapi karena tarif GPRS waktu itu masih mahal, jadinya pakenya ga jauh dari sekedar coba-coba, download ringtone, dan lain-lain. Sedangkan untuk nyoba-nyoba yg laen kayanya ga niat.<span id="more-12"></span></p>
<p>Di benak saya waktu itu ngapain lah ngeinternet lewat GPRS yg cukup mahal, di handphone pula, mendingan juga di komputer lebih nyaman. Sewaktu ada penggunaan GPRS gratis dari Matrix, atau bayar berapa gitu, saya juga udah lupa, pake sepuasnya. Ngeinternet juga ga di HP, HP cuma dijadiin modem, ngeinternet ya tetep aja di komputer lewat bluetooth. Kemudian setelah sempet ganti HP ke O2 Xphone II dan HP tercinta saya yg sekarang Nokia 6230i. Tetep aja ga gitu niat untuk mengakses mobile web, mau lihat berita-berita, kebanyakan juga isinya seperlunya saja, mendingan nunggu sebentar lah sebelum sampe rumah buat ngeinternet. Pernah sih nyobain kirim email Yahoo lewat mobile webnya, waktu Honeymoon dulu tapi ya.. males juga sih kirim email.</p>
<p>Nah apakah yang saya alami itu identik dengan rakyat Indonesia? ya saya tidak tahu. Tapi melihat perkembangannya sekarang di mana jumlah HP jelas lebih banyak daripada jumlah komputer yang tersambung ke Internet, mobile website jelas sangat potensial. Tapi masalahnya berapa banyak sih orang Indonesia ber HP suka mengakses situs mobile web? Terutama selain dari sekedar mengakses portal dari operator selulernya masing-masing untuk download ringtone.</p>
<p>Dari sisi teknis, buat mobile website jelas jauh lebih mudah karena lebih sederhana daripada website yang diakses dengan browser komputer.  Masalahnya cuma desainnya aja, gimana supaya cocok untuk berbagai macam HP dengan berbagai ukuran layar. Dari HP yang murah sampai yang mewah. Itu sih tinggal sisi seni dari seorang web programmer yang bekerja.</p>
<p>Bila pasar mobile web sudah terbuka dan menarik, cukup banyak sebenarnya ide-ide saya yang mungkin akan saya coba implementasikan. Tapi mungkin akan saya coba sedikit demi sedikit, karena kalo melihat kondisi sekarang ini, saya rasanya masih kurang bersemangat untuk merealisasikan ide-ide tersebut.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since the availability of dotMobi (.mobi)  last year, I have been wondering wether i need a dotMobi domain. Although the dotMobi domain have been backed by some big IT and Telecomunication company, the need to have a dotMobi is still questionable. People are already familiar with .com , .net, .org and ccTLD (country code Top Level Domain), why do you need another domain? dotMobi was marketed as an easy way for people to identified the website as a mobile-friendly website. But in my point of view having another domain for mobile user would confuse the user and i do not see any point for me to have a benefit from .mobi domain. Using subdomain for example wap.domain.com or mobi.domain.com may be enough to identified my site as a mobile friendly site. My mobile user will only need to go to domain.com and i use a WURFL script or <a href="http://www.andymoore.info/php-to-detect-mobile-phones/">Andy Moore&#8217;s Php script</a> to redirect my user to the wap.domain.com or mobi.domain.com. So why do i need to waste my money to buy a new domain that will not effective.<br />
<span id="more-22"></span></p>
<p>In my point of view .Mobi is a way to get more money from companies that had already had an .com / .net / .org domain. Just make them freak out that someone will get their domain.mobi domain if they do not buy .mobi. And if some other people by domain.mobi they will able to forge  example.com mobile site and act as it is owned by the domain.com.</p>
<p>So back to the question, do you need dotMobi? My answer is NO!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just read from CNET News about Palm new product Foleo,. After doing some review about this product, I came up with my own conclusion. The idea is great, but Palm should have invented this thing years ago. But today, this idea would seem really foolish for me.</p>
<p>Just see the following <a href="http://www.palminfocenter.com/news/9436/palm-officially-introduces-the-foleo/">Primary Capabilities and Attributes of the Foleo Mobile Companion</a>: (Source: Palm Infocenter)<br />
    * One-button access to full-screen email<br />
    * Instant on, instant off<br />
    * Rapid access to various applications<br />
    * 10-inch screen and full-size keyboard (1024 x 600 pixels)<br />
    * Web search and browsing via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi<br />
    * Editors for Word, Excel and PowerPoint, plus a PDF viewer<br />
    * Compact, stylish design that fits on an airline tray table<br />
    * Lightweight at 2.5 pounds<br />
    * Fast, simple and intuitive navigation<br />
    * 5-hour battery life<br />
    * Linux OS for easy application development<br />
    * All of these for a price of $499!<br />
<span id="more-21"></span></p>
<p>From those capabilities, i see that :</p>
<ul>
<li>With a cost of $499, i would prefer to buy myself a low-priced notebook! </li>
<li>Notebook has more capabilites than this thing.</li>
<li>With this size, I prefer to bring notebook as my mobile companion than Foleo</li>
<li>The only advantage of this thing for me is  the instant on / off, but IMO people would not mind wait for few minutes of booting time.</li>
<li>There are only small market for this products (maybe that&#8217;s why palm sell this thing so expensive) and a i do not think that it is really worthed</li>
<li>The name Foleo is just sound like Polio ( a kind of disease ) </li>
</ul>
<p>So for me Palm Foleo is a bad idea, but maybe after a few years Palm could prove it wrong. Who knows?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before Google introduced their text-link ads, people used image or flash banner for their ads. We could see many nice web ads, but soon after the web page were getting crowded by banner-ads, it was not nice anymore. The bigger website traffic, the merrier banner ads they had. Sometimes I think these ads were really annoying, esspecialy when one web page has two or more animated banner. Animated banner was designed to attract the viewers eyes to see the banner, but if the animated banners were too many, they gave the viewers a headache.<br />
The same happened with text-link ads. As people put too many text-link ads in their web page, they are annoying too. We can see many blogs, forums, portals, and other type of web sites either with big or small traffic, fill their web pages with text-link ads to pursue bigger income. It is okay to pursue bigger income, but not this way. I think it is reducing the ads effectiveness for the advertiser.<br />
<span id="more-19"></span><br />
Google Adsense policy only allowed as many as three places for their content ads. But how about if the site owner also put their own ads, and ads from let say Adbrite, and others. So this policy is not working. But it will be very hard to control thousands even millions page, esspecially when many of them were spam-sites.  So this depends to the site-owners themselves. If they want their vieweres to be comfortable when they are viewing their sites, they need to control they ads.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you looking for a domain that look professional for free? Well there are many place you can go to get it. But my favorite is at http://freedns.afraid.org . Afraid.org is a free DNS service where everyone can share their domains with other. By having an account in freedns.afraid.org you can obtain many great domains that were shared by other people. In my opinion many of them were weird, but some of them look professional. Like the one i uses for this site (.info.tm). You can also have other good domains like .biz.tm , .shop.tm, .edu.ms and .pro.vg. You can use those subdomains and host them anywhere you want for free!<br />
<span id="more-18"></span><br />
There are other free sevice that also offer you free domain like .co.nr , .biz.ly, and some domains offer by v3.com like .i.am , .go.to, etc. But they only offer URL redirection for those subdomain, the others offering free domain only if you host those domain with them.</p>
