After the earth, we have moon. Now, we have Mars. I wonder what's next.

I believe all of you had heard of the WebmasterWorld Forum. It's a very informative forum with lots of resources for webmasters. I remember that they require us to make payment to join. I don't believe it when Matt Cutts wrote about joining WebmasterWorld for free. And so, I try it myself.

I clicked on the "register" link on the top bar and I filled up my information. Then, I received an activation email like every other registration. Then, after I logged in, I'm already allowed to make posts or reply to posts. This is cool!

Lifehacker recently talked about an article on installing WordPress in pendrives. I find it interesting when I read:

Because you might want to take a fully working install into several places to demonstrate the program.
Because you want to work on your blog theme while at the office.
and probably a whole lot more.
It is very easy to do.

Since I'm currently working on my WordPress theme, life is much easier if I can do it anywhere in any PC. I suppose it would be much more useful for those who develop lots of themes or plugins.

Google has just announced their new Google News service for mobile users. It's definitely a good service because you can now reach news anywhere you want, without having to look for newspapers wherever you go. A short tour from Google might give some idea about the service.

Since Google News only provide links to news pages, those pages might not been optimized for mobile. So, would the mobile users still be using this service even if it might take a long time to load the news? If you had the chance to try it, please drop me a few lines in the comment.

When a blogger has some words to define, they will normally link it to the definitions in Wikipedia. Even Yahoo! Search has just announced that they are adding more related links to Wikipedia in their search result. If you are joining the crowd, try Interface to WikipedizeText. With the tool, we can expect to see even more links to Wikipedia.
