Brazillll - Google's doodle for FIFA World Cup 2014



I kind of forget to post this. Anyway how is the World Cup? It's such an unpredictable this year. You can see some great teams have a bad match. It's a shame. But if the World Cup can be predictable is not fun anymore. We need 'WOW' factor. Hehehehe..

Even though I'm not a football maniac, but I hope your favourite team can be in finals :)

Google doodle's - Again FIFA World Cup 2014


I hate it. I mean I love Google. But seriously, is it only me who is confused by this doodles? It don't make a sense. What is it means? I have tried to click it, but it only link to another match. Not what I need. It's like a miscommunication between me and Google. Bad guy Google!! :(

But I got to say, I like the animation. Not to much but enough. Anyway, see you next post. Bye bye ^^

Plan your travel - TripAdvisor


If you haven't read previous article, you can read that first or just read this article. Umm.. I am rambling again. So back again, this article's about traveling. It's more like planning.

Have you all visit TurisLokal? There're some differences between this travel site. First, TurisLokal is about the travel destinations in Indonesia. Meanwhile, the TripAdvisor's more like planning your travel, accommodations and of course the destinations too. 

Second, TripAdvisor you can plan your entire trip, flight, hotel, restaurant in your destination. You can manage your budget with this site. At least you don't have to wander around and lost in new place. But TurisLokal you just read some articles that probably mention "how to get there" or "where's the restaurant". 

Third, TurisLokal only comes in Bahasa Indonesia. On the other hand, TripAdvisor is in many language, more than 30 countries. 

Forth, TripAdvisor has come with Mobile Application in iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. While TurisLokal only comes in website. The apps also free!!

Fifth, there's GreenLeaders Programme in TripAdvisor, so it identifies hotels and B&Bs that are committed to green practices like recycling, water efficiency and alternative energy. But there's no such thing in TurisLokal.

If you read it, you probably thinking that TripAdvisor has a lot to offer for traveler. I also think that way. But what I like about TurisLokal, it's made by Indonesian people. It maybe cannot compete with TripAdvisor, but hopefully it can reach Indonesian people. 

Anyway, which one would you prefer TripAdvisor or TurisLokal?

RE.MU - Share your fashion style and your closet


I stumbled to this website around last year. I almost forgot that I have an account in this website. It's cute website. You can share about your fashion style and closet. You can also buy product from each other. It's a brilliant idea. I love the design too. You can choose what type of product to showcase.

in love with SwiftKey ^^

I have Samsung smartphone, and sometimes it's so slow that I want to throw it. It's not only Samsung, I bet when your smartphone done so many application in one time, it become slow too. So when I heard the news about SwiftKey became free, I am so ecstatic. I just installed it on Saturday and so far I love it. 

What is SwiftKey? Here's the description from Google Play.
SwiftKey Keyboard is an intelligent app for Android that upgrades your device's on-screen keyboard, making it faster and easier for you to type. This free, award-winning app delivers smarter autocorrect and next-word prediction in over 60 languages. It’s packed full of customization features, including over 30 colorful themes, layouts for all screen sizes and devices, support for over 800 emoji, emoji prediction and much more!

Amazing that it include Javanese and Sundanese for their language library. But why there's no Japanese thou? To make it more confusing, it's including Korean. Anyway, I love it because it's a lot faster than Samsung Keyboard. Sorry Samsung. 


You can also split the keyboard and drag the keyboard. It's easy, simple and fast. What more can I say? But if you don't like a plain theme, you can change it but of course not all of them are free. Yup, you have to buy it. Still, I love it.

In the article, it said that maybe SwiftKey will be in iOS. Well, we see..  If you want to get this apps in your Android devices just go to SwiftKey in Google Play

Thanks for reading this. Bye guys :)

Just Flip the Table!!

Flip the Table!!

Right now, I am under so much pressure. I'm start to losing hope. But I know it's just another obstacle that I have to go through. What I am doing now..

  1. List your priority. Heck maybe you think everything is important. But I know there're some ranks for them. What you know will take so much time..
  2. Materials. Make sure you have all materials you need.
  3. Get foods!! You need to think? Get foods on your table now.
  4. Breathe. You're start to panic and it's no good. Come on!! You can do it.
  5. Relax. Get into comfortable position. If you're working in front laptop, take a nice seat.
  6. Pray to God. Hope you finish the tasks on time.
Now I will get back to my work. See you guys!!

TurisLokal is new face for traveling in Indonesia. It has simple web design and nice articles. I'm rarely go to trip. Well, my life is always like that. But still I like searching about new place, new restaurant. For my experience with searching about traveling.. 

What I love about TurisLokal..
+ clean look

What I think need more attention..
- need more articles
- cover some fabulous spots in Indonesia 
- no google maps helps
- language in Bahasa (Indonesia)
- no details about the travel (like cost or transportation)

Nice website, but maybe they need some modification. :)
Anyway, thanks for read this article. See you ^^

Foxit or Adobe?

Do you get many assignments and they all have to be in pdf? People said "get me the pdf" or "do you have the pdf?". PDF is document type like doc. But why people talk more about pdf? 

First, Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file format used to present documents in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems. Each PDF file encapsulates a complete description of a fixed-layout flat document, including the text, fonts, graphics, and other information needed to display it. (source: Wikipedia)

So we cannot change anything in pdf. That's why people use it. When we open doc in our laptop, it could be that the software version of ours is lower than the person who gave the document. That could lead, several problems with layout, some graphic won't come out, and etc. 

Now, I will get to the software. There're many software to read pdf, such as Foxit and Adobe. This are 2 software which widely used by people. 

As I read in their website, Foxit Reader is small, fast, and feature rich PDF viewer which allows you to open, view, and print any PDF file. Unlike other free PDF readers, Foxit Reader also includes easy to use collaboration features like the ability to add annotations, fill out forms, and share content with social networks. It is designed to meet the PDF viewing needs of enterprise and government organizations, making it easy to deploy and manage in large enterprise environments. Foxit Reader can also be customized to specific product features and branding.

+ Open multiple PDF files in one window. If you open many files, it'll be in different tabs.
+ Add and manage comments in line, as note, highlight text, strikeout text or underline the text.
+ Convert a file into a PDF. 
+ Create PDF from scanned documents, from content on the clipboard, or create a blank PDF.
+ Create and manage signature.
+ Create a new link in PDF.
+ Select viewed area in bookmark.
+ Attach file and insert image, audio and video.
+ Add stamps.
+ Send through email, Evernote or Facebook.

Adobe Reader is a free software from Adobe to open, view and print PDF files. 

- Only open one PDF in one window.
+ Add text and placed signature.
+ Add comment in sticky notes or highlight text.
+ Export PDF files online.
+ Create PDF files
+ Send files in attachment or using Adobe Send.
+ Page Thumbnails. Go to specific pages using thumbnails image.
+ Attachments. View file attachments.

Foxit Reader (left) and Adobe Reader (right)
From my experience with both software, I prefer Foxit Reader. It's simple with many function and it can open multiple files. That is very important to college student like me and also to people who open PDF very often.

Anyway, thanks for read my articles. Bye bye ^^

Share Your Secret (w/ Mobile Apps)

Recently, I became so busy and forgot to post in this blog. Well, I have another in Tumblr. But it has a lot of post about One Ok Rock. I tend to go back and forth with this blog and the other. Anyway, I opened DailySocial for some news. Guess what it's about social media where we can post as anonymous. Hmm..

I found that is interesting. It's new concept. You can post to stranger without giving in your identity. You can freely post your mind. Freedom. Without the others to judge. They can judge but hey they don't know who you ar, pre say. 

As in the article, there're 3 mobile apps with that concept.
  1. Rahasiaku - Berbagi Rahasia (Android) It was made by Polatic in Android platform. The language is Indonesia. But I confused because the category is entertainment. Since the other apps category is social. But the function pretty much the same. The rating is 5 by 7 people. I guess because it's new only 10-50 download. If you want to post here, you must register weather with email or facebook account. And the Pesan fitur or message fitur is not complete. Too bad..
    The main page. Looks simple.

    Menu Layout

    RahasiaKu

    Pesan
  2. Secret (Android and iOS) Secret is a new way to share what you're thinking and feeling with your friends. You can write anything that’s on your mind, free of judgment. Be honest. Be open. Be yourself. There're 100.000 - 500.000 people who had download this app. You have to register if you want to use it. 
  3. Whisper (Android and iOS) There're 1.000.000 - 5.000.000 people who downloaded this app. It's bigger number than Rahasiaku and Secret. Whisper is an anonymous social network that allows people to express themselves, connect with like-minded individuals, and discover the unseen world around us. With Whisper, you can anonymously share your thoughts and emotions with the world, and form lasting and meaningful relationships in a community built around trust and honesty. If you have ever had something too intimate to share on traditional social networks, simply share it on Whisper!\

    Setting



In my opinion, I rather use Whisper that Secret and Rahasiaku. Since in Whisper you don't have to sign up to post. But over all they offer same thing, anonymous post. Some with advantage over the others. Thanks for read this. Bye

My car won't start?!


I'm 21 years old woman, who is studying computer science. I love watching Moto GP, Formula 1, and even Top Gear. But seriously I don't know that much about otomotive. Today happens to be one of my not so lucky day. My car won't start, well I'm busy and I'm still use public transportation to go to college. So I don't use the car that much. I hate traffic and it's my sister's car.

I will give you some tips, like 101 tips when you have problems with your car (especially if it won't start).

When your car won't start, check the car battery. 
If it looks dry or empty, then just call nearest workshop or you can call your insurance workshop.
If it's still full and liquid, then there's something wrong with your car battery. You can jumper the car battery and there're several ways to do that. First, push the car. You can start the car when your friend or someone push it.
Push the car
Second, use another car battery. You can use jumper cables to connect another car battery with our car battery. Then you can start the working car and after a while you can start the disable car. Hopefully it works.
Use another car battery
Third, car battery backup. Connect the cable from backup to the car and start the backup. After that try to start the car.
Car Battery Backup

After the jumper, the car stops again
If it stops again, you probably have to call workshop and have a technician to check on your car. But in my case, my car battery have to be replaced. :(

I just crash another car
Ohh boy, calm and be rational. Don't give them your certificate of vehicle ownership/ STNK in Indonesia and your driving license. Apologize to them and talk about solution. If you know a workshop, you can offer to take them there. And if there's injuries, call ambulance and police.

I know we usually panic if some problems happen. But remember just calm cause panic won't help. So anyway there're some (useful) tips from me ^^ Ciao
If you want to ask more just leave a comment below..
