My hosting provider is Internet-Webhosting but they put my website at US datacenter. That is why it shows Layered Technologies Inc in the result.

Each time when you click on a link to download a file, Firefox download window will pop up. This is really annoying because it blocks our view to the website and we need to minimize it every time it appears. But there is a Firefox extension that will replace it from a disturbing download window into a small nice download statusbar.
Download Statusbar is a Firefox extension that will replace your current Firefox download window into download statusbar. This extension will appear above the status bar in your Firefox and will not disturb you while you browse a website. It will sit there until you asked it to do something for you.

During the download, it will show you the progress bar, the download speed, the file size and estimated time. When you mouse over the download bar, you will get extra information about the file you are downloading.
Nowadays, many peoples use Google Toolbar in their Firefox browser. I don’t know what makes Google Toolbar so popular. Maybe because of the pagerank checker that enables you to check a website pagerank or other functionalities that can helps you in browsing web pages. But if the pagerank checker is the reason you install the Google Toolbar, I want to recommend you a Firefox extension that do the same job as the Google Toolbar pagerank checker.
Live PageRank (LivePR) is a Firefox extension that will display a small pagerank bar at the lower left conner of your Firefox browser. It will check the website pagerank from Gooogle datacenters and display the result instantly. I more prefer using this extension than using Google Toolbar because Google Toolbar will fetch our browsing history and data and keep them for their own purposes that we don’t know. I know about it after I read an article a long time ago and can’t remember the link to the article. But I really don’t like how tricky the Google Toolbar works and that’s why I don’t like it very much.

1. Go to Control Panel and double click on Regional and Language Options.
2. Click on Customize and go to Time tab.

Just to let you know that I have upgraded my Site Statistics plugin to version 1.6. This new version contains the fix for the Wordpress 2.3 categories issue.
Wordpress has changed the way it handles the database. The categories table has been changed to terms table. That is why plugins that point to categories table will get an error saying that the categories table is not exist.
Just in case for those who don’t want to download Site Statistics v1.6, you can fix it by yourself by open the plugin file with your favourite text editor. Then, find and replace “categories” to “terms” and upload the edited plugin file to your plugins folder.
Btw, I will not support Wordpress version 2.2 and below from now on. In fact, there is no problem if you are using Site Statistics v1.5 on your Wordpress 2.2 and Wordpress 2.1. Site Statistics v1.6 is only for Wordpress 2.3 onwards. If you have any problems regarding this plugin, feel free to send me email or leave them in the comment form below.

It is really amazing when only in two days, my new website has been listed in Google search result. I was doing some research about Nseries blog and suddenly I saw my new website, My Nseries Blog, which I registered the domain on 5th November has been listed in Google.
I use the keyword “nseries blog” and found my website at the 8th rank in the first result page. It is really fast for Google to detect new website and I hope this website will get good PR so the rank will be higher in the future.
My Nseries Blog is my new and my 5th website which will focus on Nokia Nseries phones. This website is currently in development and there are many things need to be improved. The current theme is K2 but it is just for temporary only. I will using my own custom made theme next month because I don’t have time to create one now. The categories are not yet decided. If you have any idea, please email me or leave them in the comment below. Right now, I am thinking to categorize them by models and each model will have their own sub-category such as tips & tricks, applications, themes, etc.
I just noticed today that I am using the new version of Gmail. I noticed it when I saw my email address is being displayed at the title bar. You will not see this if you are using the older version.
Then, to make it confirm, I saw beside the Settings, there is a link to Older Version. I clicked it and it sent me to the older version and there is no email address being displayed at the title bar.
Then what next? I went check out the new features like the Contacts manager, the More Actions drop-down menu, Chat.

I am running WP-Cache plugin on this website. Since I use it on my website, I can feel the difference. The time taken for my website to load up is much faster when I using it.
WP-Cache is a plugin that will cache your Wordpress and stores them to static files. When a page is requested, Wordpress will load the static file instead of compiling the PHP code and building the page from the database. This will really reduce the time from several tenths of seconds to less than a milisecond as said by the plugin author, Ricardo Galli Granada.
The installation is not really difficult but you might having a problem to create the symbolic link because you need to have a shell access to do it. But thanks to Torkil Johnsen for sharing this method to us.
