Kita semua tahu Friendster, salah satu social networking pertama yang merajai dunia online saat itu. Semua orang berlomba-lomba untuk memiliki account supaya dapat berinteraksi dengan rekan-rekannya. Friendster merupakan salah satu pemicu hadirnya website social networking lainnya yang bahkan lebih canggih dengan feature-feature yang inovatif. Kita bisa lihat Facebook dan Twitter dengan jutaan pemakai di seluruh dunia yang meng-update status mereka setiap detik.
Hal ini tentu saja menjadi salah satu alasan yang mendorong pemakai tersebut memasuki dunia online. Bahkan beberapa orang tua yang saya kenal tidak pernah membayangkan internet sama sekali, sekarang memiliki account di Facebook dan belajar berinteraksi dengan keluarga dan teman-temannya. Betapa cepatnya informasi tentang diri kita yang dapat tersebar juga merupakan alasan utama ber-Facebook. Status yang kita update langsung dapat dibaca oleh rekan kita. (more…)

SEO has been a must-do-stuff for website owner. But many people still confused about this, especially how to do the optimization. 90% of clients and prospects we met has asked about this. Questions varied from what is SEO to how to do it effectively.

I was just updating to wordpress 2.6.2. It was running smoothly. After upgrading is completed, I logged in and checked if everything is okay, including plugin. When all done, I logged out, but realize I missed something. So, I went back to the login panel, but guess what, I can’t login. What the #@*&!
What happen is, when I filled in username and password and press enter, it was loading but keeps getting back to the login panel. I couldn’t go to wordpress dashboard. So, second attempt was clicked on ‘forget my password’ and try again. But no luck. Third attempt is to get in to phpmyadmin, changed the password and tried again, but still no luck. Forth attempt is trying it in several browsers, Opera, Google Chrome, Safari, IE7, but still.. still no bloody luck. I thought I really lost all my luck that day!

At first glance, as a designer I love the layout, very simple and being a little brave to go out from common white color that has been around for years. Google and Yahoo has white as background. So, Cuil.com (read cool.com) attracts my eyes a lot. Besides, it claimed to have the biggest search index. When I visited the site, it displayed “121,617,892,992 web pages”.
