Blogger hacks

Since the time I started blogging, my blogs In a class by itself and Sweet and spicy life have evolved from one design to another, some of the screenshots I saved. Now I can say I know my way around basic html, but of course I had the guide from great blogging hackers who unselfishly share their knowledge and whose hacks I actually have been using in the past and this time. I am now into something new to me this time, learn some. I just think it is right for me to acknowledge them now.

E-ticket for Cebu Pacific

TRAVEL TIP: Travel on Tuesdays or Wednesdays for best availability of lowest ..

airplaneIt’s time everyone flies. We have tried to purchase my domestic e-tickets today for my incoming flight back to the Philippines from Manila to Davao next month. But how in the world, Cebu Pacific Air, which hubby chooses, does not allow visa payments from the United States! I just won’t dare imagine them if they handle payments online from other countries.

One thing from them though:

Batch File Uploads

After I set up my wordpress account on my web host of course I would have to upload wp files in the directory. Everything was new to me but it turned out bit easy for now. I uploaded files one by one and after doing it for few minutes, I got a bit impatient to do it manually, surely there is something that makes it automatic, at least. Less errors, time and effort. Then I found that an easier way to upload files to your webhost is to use an FTP client thing, finally met it face to face after hearing about it. FileZilla, is an open-source FTP-client and FTP-server developed for the Windows operating system by Tim Kosse (Germany) et al. It comes in both a Javascript and non-Javascript version. FileZilla may be used to manage your WordPress site by uploading and downloading files and images  to manage your WordPress powered blog hosted on the server;  is a free client that’s supposed to be really easy to use, the one I am utilizing now. It was so much easier and faster to transfer batch files. FTP clients really make uploading easier than working manually with the web based upload.

In WordPress..

We purchased a swamp plan in Hostgator for my web host. So far, I am contented with it, it’s superb, I really like it, this time. I am definitely new to this domain names and management and I just followed or do what I thought was right. I used Fantastico to install WordPress automatically few days ago, and this morning I got an email that I have to upgrade my installation to version 2.2.2, great. It was 2.2 when I installed it, and I see that there is new one coming, wordpress in beta. Guess will be so much better. Beginning to love it now.

Gray beach view

It was all gray. The weather was quiet peaceful despite the graying clouds. I love this shot through the hotel window. It was nice to see the part of sun’s light focusing on the part of the beach and the sea. Isn’t it romantic affairs of the elements?

Frontier info the day:

in total, there are 1,652 languages and dialects spoken in India.

People on the beach

The blurry and grayish shot like the weather of the beach below the hotel through the window. This was just a fraction of the people that would eventually pack the beach’s brown sand enjoying life, and me enjoying watching them when I had nothing else to do. After all, I was there on vacation, and as a tourist to learn about them.

Frontier trivia the day:

80.5% of Indians are Hindus, with 13.4% of the population Muslim, making India home to the third-largest Muslim population in the world after Indonesia and Pakistan.
