This party goes on 2005/11/11, 12, and 13. Some cool bands and singers will perform their work licensed by Creative Commons Licenses, and some mainstream BSP(Blog Services Provider)s will announce their CC licensing support. Many bloggers may come and blog. The whole party is totally free, so please feel cool to join us.
Be sure to check out CC Party info page and do not forget our CC party Blog. We'll blog on-the-fly during this party.
]]>Here is an animation shows how I look like now.
]]>Our session in APNG is to talk about blog in Taiwan and Korea. I prepared my slides last night. (Kim said that she did, too!) Lacking of rehearsal, I think that my presentation is just O.K. I use the idea of "Hybrid" to go through whole speech. I introduced the hybrid nature of Taiwanese culture and Internet activities. Also, I demonstraed Taiwan's remix -- "Kuso" -- creativities. I believed that it's that kind of hybrid (remix) affect how blog and BSP changing in Taiwan.
Then I briefly introduced how lawyers (in fact, law) may interfere these creativities. I said that both Code (in Cyberspace) and Law (in Realworld) must be improved to make life easier and make blog richer, and this is what Creative Commons Taiwan working on.
If you are interested in my presentation, you can check my slides.
]]>It did affect the reputation of MT and my blog. Suddenly, I lost. I know that my readers will no longer read my blog as easy and comfortable as before.
This thing was mentioned all the time in my presentation about blog. I explained how important role does trust play in blog. Further more, I made two decisions: first I added a category , archived all things shouldn't be taken serious; and I stop play April Fool in next several years.
No, I don't drop my humor. But I now understood that real humor won't hurt people's trust to you.
]]>I believe that "trust" is the core value of Blog. Bloggers presented themselves via their Blog. Only if readers do trust those context in Blogs, Bloggers does exist. As to archives, links, comments, TrackBacks, Feeds, they are just tools to achieve trust.
Some great people such as Mark Pligrim abandoned Movable Type and switched to WordPress. That's because Six Apart change their lincese on using Movable Type. In deed Six Apart improved their technology and joined standard aggressive, and made Movable Type better then ever. But their change challenge user's trust. So began WordPress rising up and willing to replace Movable Type.
However, there are scandals about WordPress recently. People indicate that Matt Mullenweg the author of WordPress abusing trust of him/WordPress from others and earning secret. And this may make WordPress fail.
In spite of how technology, spec, reputation, ability, or standing is, anyone may fail without trust. And this is what Blog is. You are with responsibility for yourself and gathering trust with others.
]]>Just before this BoF, in 3/26 and 3/27, there was an YAPC::Taipei::2005.
As BoF in 03/29, I stream audio out by Skype to mjhsieh living in US, then we together broadcast this to US, UK, et al. Here is a brief of that day:
In the begining, Joi Ito described Internet from a very interesting view of point -- "Connection." In fact, most of his presentation is about Creative Commons. I think that because he is one of Creative Commons members. In his presentation, I again find that the most important spirit of Blog may be connecting creative around the world, and this is extactly what Internet trying to do. In order to do this, Creative Commons will be a key point. (You can read more in his slides.)
After Ito, Heewon Kim the goddess of Korean Blog started talking about Korean Blog Culture. She is a very hard-working girl and I picked many intresting point from her presentation. For example, how Korean developed their own Blog system(and naming it! Haha!) and how they grow their blogsphere up (syndication, MetaBlog, Award, etc). Again, you can read more in her slides.)
After these two great people is Xuite's show time. (Xuite should be pronounced as /sweet/
.) She is a sweet girl as her name. In her presentation, I saw HiNet (the company behind Xuite) not only spent many mony (take a look at server room. Hay, there is more then 96T storage and more and more!) but also learn much from their competitor -- they give up group Blog by traditional taxology but by abstract feeling or space! No one should underestimate them. I mean that.
And then wretch talked about what he think about Blog. But if his company can be competitor of Xuite? Let's wait and see.
In the end of this BoF, there were short speech which should be free panel in original schedule. Great Joi Ito recorded my part with his mobile phone and uploaded it just-in-time. You can use QuickTime opening this jedi.3gp. I'm first introducing Liang-Bin Hsueh (a.k.a. hlb) who really do many things about Blog in Taiwan. He is currently serve in the army so can't be with us this time. Then I talk about my feeling about Blog in Taiwan these years. I say people now blog/express easily and comfortable so I feel what I did is quite worth.
At the end, I say it's time that major power start involving in. So our ISPs join blog business, and we have such a BoF inviting great people from different countries. We now have grass-root media and will go into international. I thank all bloggers there. "It's you make our blog-life such beautiful," I said.
So, now, it's just after the Bof. Chiao asked, "what to do next?" In my humble opinion, there are lots of things we don't have time to talk during the BoF, it's time that we should start to talk; there are many important or interesting people, it's time to report them; there are many bloggers and media reporters, it's time to syndicate them all. If we do so, in the end of 2005, we may publish (physical or on-line) an annual review to let more people know, these important things do happen.

After that, I start modifying templates. First I deleted these unused templates:
There are some templates unused cannot be deleted. I cleared them for security issue:
Now I can work with templates. I modified my Category Archive template to become this: (You can also download it as zipped plain text file, [Archive_Template]_Category.UTF-8.txt.zip )

Now we still have to modify Main Index template. Otherwise we will get a error message during site rebuild! Here is what I have done: (Yes, you can download it as a zipped plain text file, [Index_Template]_Main_Index.UTF-8.txt.zip)

In order to save time for further MT site to function this, I use the approach I mentioned before to make this file, default-templates.pl.zip. You should backup your original mt/lib/MT/default-templates.pl
, unpack this zip file, and then put default-templates.pl
into mt/lib/MT/
replacing the old one. After this step, all your new Blog will apply these templates as default. But you still have to config blog configuration manually.
We almost done! The last thing you should treat with is to upload files used by S5. Please get this ui.zip, unpack it, upload the whole ui
folder into your Local Archive Path. You have done! Now let's see how it works.

]]>With my wife, there is brand new life waiting for me. I'm also updating templates for this site. So if you like, you can comment this entry to let me know "hey, I'm still with you!"
]]>You can watch this Google Search Result to find out this thing.
Shame on him! Blame him! How ugly he is!
]]>All those detail are skipped. When you're waiting something high, the film ended suddenly. Describe things happened during those years only with few words and scenes. You don't see anything growing, and I can't get even a little echo.
]]>In "Supplement," Zanussi started with "how people face (other's) death," answering "how people face (one's own) life." Now he fellowed this context, looked himself and asked, "how people face (one's own) death." His now introspect rather then discover. He stop analyzing the truth with science like in his "Illumination." He just calm down and look at himself.
You should note that Zanussi shows some humor in this film. He said by actors's mouth:
"You must be hypersensitive. So you are playing in this film talking about death."How about take a look at the thief? When he first time facing the death, what he can do is only surviving. He tried to escape but failed from hurt. But when he later accept death, knowing it's just a gate to forever (with priest's view of point), the death doesn't coerce him anymore.
"I don't know what does this film for."
"I don't know either."
This is also what Dr. Berg experenced in his last life. When you can understand your exist, believe what you believed (belief, or faith), you can prove how to stay with death.
He don't argue about euthanasia, neither agree nor against. But he said, you have to save yourself. Life as a fatal sexually transmitted disease, can't be save by other's touch.
The final awakeness is only available in your own heart.
]]>Tsai sais, he wanna film something real, which may full with gray and question without any answer. But you do not treat this film as kind of documentary. This film is never real. It surrender the viscousness of weep.
Let's begins with my first sight of Tsai. I don't watch much of his film in fact. My first sight of Tsai came from his "Talking with God" in last Golden Horse Film Festival. In this short film, you can watch he filming subway without people, dying fishes, etc. He isn't showing what God's looking at. He is talking to God. The short film itself basically is a sacrifice.
You can see the same scene in "Bu san." The woman hard to walk walking all the time; the Japanese always be annoyed when watching movie and be denied when asking love. You can also notice that in some segment the time seems be prolonged interminate. The slowness of slowing step itself retarded then. Just like the punk jelling in the air, calling the true name of "Silence" in the language you can't understand, and lighting the face of "Darkness." He is not only showing how time watching chenging world but also wanting you talking to his God (in fact himself) when gazing the empty scene. "Visit my movies as they were temple or church," Tsai said.
The only 11 dialouge (not 10) in this film start and end suddenly. They are not Paternoster. They are candle of temple admiring the "Dragon Inn" you treat as background.
In my opinion, this is what Tsai is talking and listening.
]]>By the way, I have got books of the histories of the Middle-Earth. here are photos.
