Anime-goers and Japanese enthusiasts that are learning Japanese should not miss this great extension for Google Chrome. Rikaikun, a dictionary extension for Google Chrome which is a conversion/counterpart from the popular FireFox extension Rikaichan. Similar to Rikaichan’s functions, when enabled hovering the mouse on Japanese text would pop out a tooltip which has the translation and hiragana pronunciation of the text. By hitting the shift/enter button, more information of the Kanji will be presented.
More details about Rikaikun on the developer’s website, and you can read more about Rikaichan here.
Danny Choo from DannyChoo.com tells us his experience about the new Fiber Optic/Optic Fiber/Optic Fibre Connection he recently bought.
Some of his reasons are:
-Can physically keep our private home network separate from an externally facing server – rather not have our private stuff on the same network.
-Want to have the freedom of disconnecting our private optic fiber modem for various reasons – cleaning up, moving things around etc – cant really disconnect the line for a live server all the time.
-Save 12,000 USD per year that some of the dedicated hosting costs.
-The most important reason is so that I can learn the process of how to do all the settings involved in setting up a server at home from scratch.
Surprising (at least for me) is that the optic connection he got is at 100Mbps! A Hikari line from NTT which costs a measly 1,022 yen per month for the first year and goes up to 6,720 yen for the second year. It’s a Flets Home Type promotion that he found on kakaku.com. With that promotion, he doesn’t pay the setup fees and modem rent. Nice… Compared here in my region, 768kbps with 1.2mbpsSpeed-on-Demand costs 899 php which is about 1700 yen and installation fee is 1999 php. A 2 mbps would be a luxury here…
