Back to school

In Misc on August 1st, 2010

After rest of four years, finally I am going back to school.  But this didn’t came easily:

  • Started from not accepting – in 2006, I did not accepted Brain Korea Fund offered by a Korean university for Master of Engineering.
  • After then, I keep applying for Erasmus Mundus fund and they keep on rejecting my application.
  • In search of alternative universities, I exchange 200+ emails  corresponding. But still didn’t find best fit.
  • Evaluating MCA/MBA offering in some finest engineering colleges from Bangalore and changed mind not to go India.

The best thing is that, I learnt so many things that no universities can teach in this period of four years – working with people from different background, culture, country and being pain in ass on the problem which I know no right solution.

Finally checking option in Nepalese colleges, Ace become my choice:

  • Executive MBA, designed to best fit to working managers like me.
  • Evening shifts class, that still allow me work and earn a million box (haa).
  • Ranked best in country.

And, I hope it will enhance managerial skill and help to acheive entrepreneurial desire.

WordPress 3.0 and DISQUS

In Misc on July 19th, 2010

Till date, I am still using WordPress 2.9. Today just got thought to upgrade to WordPress 3.0. It really surprise me that upgrade process amazingly easy, it just happened in one click and nothing is broken (Goto WordPress Admin -> Click on update link -> Select auto-update). There’s no doubt that WordPress 3.0 way better then earlier version. Among lot of newly introduced features, I like:

  1. Menu Management
  2. Multi-site
  3. Taxnomy
  4. Custom type post

See complete guide http://bit.ly/9Glcuh (Although none of above are really use of mine so far)

I always used to think way to aggregate comments (of post) which spread throughout different social network. Later, I found some nice tools like DISQUS, Echo, IntenseDebate and Livefyre. Two of them are realtime and not free, two of them are free (possibly not realtime). I just registered and integrate with DISQUS (is not realtime, ops sorry, Ro Gupta say it’s real time but for VIP only). I am gonna see some days, how it goes. If it doesn’t go as I expect, I’ll write my own.
