Cloudfare-Great Tool for web optimization
Last week, I installed Cloudfare for our website. I found that is very useful. It has CDN. That is great for oversea visitors. I used our Singapore box for testing. In that box, we loaded our Australia website from there. That is much faster, I think 100% faster! Moreover, it can blocked some known threats for the website.
Lastly, that is easy to setup. All I need to do is pointing the dns to Cloudfare. That is so easy!
I love this tool!
Google Glass
Recently, Google launched their latest product, Google Glass. No doubts, that is a very creative product. No screens at all, the glasses will become your display, and no keyboards at all, it uses voice commands. Moreover, it has a camera in the glasses. So, you can use it to capture what you see into Youtube or translate the words you just saw into a different language. That is very sci-fi and too advance. I think the general public is not easy to get used to this kind of operating computer. Moreover, the price of Google Glass is an serial consideration, whether that is too expensive.

My New Android Dongle
Recently, I went to Hong Kong. I bought an Android Dongle(MK808). That is so powerful. Although that is very small, it is similar with a USB thumb drive, it has Android 4.1.1, Daul Core A9 CPU , 8GB storage. That is so powerful!
It turned my TV into an Android TV. I can browse the websites and watch youtube in my living room with a big screen. Its speed is ok and I can install the apps from Google Play in that. Generally, it is a small Android computer. Moreover, it supports Bluetooth and wifi, with two USB ports and HDMI!So it is so cool and only costs HKD$658.
Go to cloud
I found the cloud solution is essential for my business. That is so hard to keep our own infrastructure. The cost is not just for buying some hardware. The difficult part is requiring someone to maintenance them. Moreover, we need some applications to access from multiple locations. Either we have many laptops
or going to cloud ...
