Starting today, you can go to Google Book Search and download full copies of out-of-copyright books to read at your own pace. You're free to choose from a diverse collection of public domain titles — from well-known classics to obscure gems.

Blog不單造就了人可以容易表達及抒發自己的感受（作者），因blog隨之而來的RSS格式更讓讀Blogs的人（讀者）能不用到個別的網頁亦可以讀到他們的朋友、機構或是其他類別的消息。

例如，只要你有一個Bloglines戶口（免費），就可以將你所常讀的blogs通通subscribed。於是，若你所subcribed的blogs那個有新post，在同一個介面就可以一目了然。

下面是我的Bloglines戶口的screenshot（click to enlarge）： 

如此，你可以在同一個page，看見誰有新的post或更新。有需要的話，才進入他們的blogs，係唔係好正？

唔係的話，咁鬼多blogs，邊個有時間日日逐個click？！

至於如何subscribe或create一個bloglines戶口，這裡有很清楚的說明（附圖）。

Becoming的RSS及所有Comments的RSS，可以在右邊的sidebar最低的部份看到。

Things are more or less back to normal. Well, I guess “normal” as in “working”. There are still a few things in the backend that needs to be ironed out, but as for all readers, you should be able to read and comment with no problem.

Having said that, please pay attention to a few changes….

The new rss subscription is:
http://edmund.becoming.ca/?feed=rss2

Whereas the comments rss is now:
http://edmund.becoming.ca/?feed=comments-rss2

The “pretty permalink” is not working with the new host. All permalinks are now in the format of :
http://edmund.becoming.ca/?p=x

Where x is the post ID.

The site has been moved. However, it will take a while to cleanup all the bugs and settings errors. Thanks for your patence.

Okay. Powweb can’t transfer my website automatically to their new platform and I am really fed-up with the process of manually checking everything myself.

In light of this (plus other factors), I decided to move my domain and website to a Canadian web hosting service early next week. That means my blog will be down for a while. Sorry for the inconvenience.

This also means that I will not update my blog until I successfully moved the site.

So, if there is anything you would like to download, please do so before Sunday (unless you don’t mind to wait for a few weeks of tuning and fine-tuning).

For those of you designers, webmasters & bloggers, here are 1,000 icons created by Mark James of UK– all for free!

Another Amazon’s joke/bug/prophecy:

How can the book Jesus And the Eyewitnesses be No.2 in the Bestselling list of Bauckham when it is not even out?
