Monopoly City Streets!! Launching today!

last friday, i was playing Monopoly City at my friend's home. fortunately, i was late to join them, they used almost an hour in explaining the rules of the game. today, just knew that there is a game named Monopoly City Streets is going to launch! i bet all your girlfriends will no longer spend time in restaurant city/pet societ/happy farm/friends for sale! It is launching today, stay tuned!

just a little bit about the game. it is a combination of monopoly and google map where you can buy streets and build your own buildings. you are given $3M to start off buying properties anywhere in the world. moreover, google is also holding a competition to let users design their buildings using google sketchup! let's buy the whole nathan road tonight!

楊淇

有睇過電影《20-30-40》嘅朋友應該會記得有個女仔同李心潔一齊搵左黃秋生做經理人,故事發展到最後,當個女仔話自己係來睇下媽媽喜歡的男人時,佢好能夠表達到自己對黃秋生同媽媽嘅矛盾與無奈。今晚睇左《流金頌 - 有生之年》再見到呢個女仔,佢做得好自然,好想睇佢其他作品。

Re-enable your USB port in Office

Just knew that our big boss decided to disable all the usb ports in office. damn it. the worse thing is....gmail, hotmail, ymail...........are all BLOCKED!!!!!

a simply workaround to re-enable your usb port is to buy a PS2 to USB converter!

Figure 1. PS2 to USB converter



Figure 2. USB to PS2 converter

一個係公頭,一個係母頭,唔好買錯!


just did a test.....it doesn't work.

since the ps2 to usb converter only converts keyboard and mouse signals, so plugging a usb flash drive into the converter has no effect. it is not possible to act as a usb port.
