Branching Sites With Subdomain

I have been long wanting to have a Chinese version of blog, where I can post and bitch about my life. I’ve thought about using Sina Weibo, but I can’t just simply give up the Ad Revenue. With Weebly supporting customer domain and allowing me to share Google AdSense revenue, I’ve decided to host a Chinese version of the blog on Weebly.

With more and more websites offering simple and beautiful website builders, there is no need to host on your own. I’ve thought about using Facebook Notes, Ello.co or medium.com for my blogging need, but I just simply can’t move forward to Ad Free content blogging.

A Head Of The Game
Few weeks ago, I attend a local mobile festival event to learn the latest new technology in the mobile world. I’ve learned a lot. Collect lots resources to digest.

The most important thing I really learned is from the 3 Native India organizers. I joint their local meetup and have been following and watching their progress. What amazed me is that they came from nowhere as no body, and have become the 3 leaders in mobile development industry in the state. It really helps them build their credibility. In the startup and entrepreneur world, your reputation and public appearance is a key to ensure your startup will go smoothly.

100 Day Challenge

Leave a Comment

I am a big G+ fan. I’ve met many great like-minded entrepreneurs on Google+. So I recently started a new Google+ collection called “Startup & Entrepreneurship“. My goal is to share my finding, my progress and hopefully help someone succeed in their life.

Almost 5 years ago, I started an 100 day challenge to change my life. I failed miserably. I am really disappointed by myself. What is even worst is that I still haven’t changed my life 5 years later.

[Update] If you are seeing this post, I’ve discovered a great way to record my progress. I started using Microsoft Sway services to record the my everyday progress and publish it on Docs.com. You can find my progress embedded at the bottom of this post.

Why I Choose Microsoft Office 365 + OneDriver Over Google Drive

Office-365

Recently, I decided to pay for Microsoft Office 365 Personal Edition.  Google Drive is no longer my favorite tool for my day to day operation.  Well. Dropbox don’t even stand a chance.   The main reason to make the switch is that Microsoft Office 365 offer better solution with unlimited space for the cheaper price.

Don’t get me wrong.  I am a big Google Fan.  I pretty much use Google for everything.  I’ve been using Google Drive for a very long time.  Not to mention that I am also a Google Maps Certified Business Photographer.  So I use a lot of disk space on Google Drive to store my photos, gmail attachment and documents.

Leave a Comment

Would you like to save $30 a month by getting rid of you home phone, getting free domestic long distance call in USA and Canada, plus getting low cost international long distance call to many countries out there?

Best of all, this setup can give you much more freedom and take your home phone to go with you. See how I make Free International calls to USA from a moving bus in Taipei, Taiwan.

I recently decided to get rid of my home phone service with CentryLink. It costs me about $30 a month to include local call and free domestic long distance call that I already have on my cell phone and Google voice. Not to mention that home phone doesn’t include two line and text.

So I bought a Obi 110 phone box and connected it with two Google voice phone numbers (one personal and one business). I now can call anywhere in the world with Google Voice at really low cost or no cost.
