The future →
techcrunch.com
I think to a certain extent we’re thinking about the future, 3, 5, 10 years out all of the time. I want to bring the future here as fast as possible, I’m impatient. Google is impatient. We want to figure out the problems. “What problems do you have today? How can we solve that problem?” are questions that we ask each other. We like giving people back their time.
With more time, they can spend that time with their kids or family and go to the park. We think about this all of the time. In product development, we try to make as much progress as we can quickly. Launch and iterate. We have to check in with the people who use it and we have a number of ways to do that on the design side. We do a design lab where we gather user feedback, which gives us longer-term perspective.
This change my perspective to Google. This day privacy is “not important”. I mean, all the people share to much on social media without thinking. Ton of information available without getting used. I hope their work to make our life easier must appreciate without abused our information.
Good job Google!
i'm quit stick to one platform
This happen to me. My Apple ID was blocked. Even i can resolve this issue, it changed my perspective to hanging with one platform. I thought it’ll easier if only stick to one platform, but disaster come. I can’t install anything, update, even my $6 disappear. I’m unhappy.
Now i don’t mind if changed my platform. App oriented not platform oriented seems the best choice for me. Goodbye “fans-ism”.
“The most important thing to Apple is to make the best products in the world that enrich customers’ lives. That’s our high order bit. That means that we aren’t interested in revenue for revenue’s sake. We can put the Apple brand on a lot of things and sell a lot more stuff, but that’s not what we’re here for. We want to make only the best products.”

Prestige or Need?
“wuih sekarang pake iPhone 5? keren dong”
“si itu baru beli SGS3 loh. keren layarnya. buka aplikasi cepet banget!”
“liat nih iPad mini gw. keren kan?”
“mantap nih Nexus 7 gw. dengan harga segini spek-nya keren!”
zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Gw gak habis pikir sama orang jaman sekarang. Mereka berlomba-lomba beli gadget yang terbaru. memang sih uang mereka. bukan urusan gw juga. tapi yang gw heran pola pikir orang jaman sekarang. Gw pikir mereka mengejar “prestige” dengan menggunakan gadget terbaru. Biar gak malu kalo dibawa “hangout” bareng temen-temen. Padahal fungsional gadget yang mereka beli tidak berguna seluruhnya. mubazir.
Trend gadget sekarang berubah dari alat bantu yang memudahkan aktifitas kita menjadi fashion & lifestyle.

Why tablet so hype?
So far, my personal computing are fine without a tablet. I do a lot of my computing activity on my desktop or Macbook like programming, office, etc. For reading RSS, i sync all of my device (thanks Readability). All my browser have Readability add-ons. So i can read news on all of my browser on my Desktop, Macbook or my iPhone. Gaming? i still can play on my iPhone or my Desktop.
If i on market now, i don’t even consider a tablet. i just want upgrade my macbook become macbook air because the problem of weight and performance (I use Macbook Aluminium MB466 2 Ghz @ 2008).
So tablet, why you become hype nowsaday? i confuse.

Jalan Terakhir
Kebiasaan itu susah diubah. Dunia adalah segalanya. Kekuasaan pemegang kendali. Itu darah daging. Kaum sadar banyak tapi tertimbun kekuasaan. Berlari seperti babi hutan. Idealisme semu. Lawan atau kawan yang penting dunia. Kawan diludahi tanpa rasa hina. Hancur, lebur.
Kaum kreatif memang tidak sempurna. Drugs, seks bebas, alkohol itu jiwa walaupun tidak semua. Tapi lihat hati mereka. Kreatifitas menggebu. Hati jernih. Bukan pecundang pencari dunia. Respect sesama. Titel hanya sebuah huruf di nama. Mereka harus maju.
Menit ke 90, injury time. Tertinggal. Keadaan masih bisa diperbaiki. Tidak ada yang tidak mungkin. Teruslah berlari. Wahai jiwa haus kreatifitas.

Science to Management
So, as a science student, i have some difficulty to adapt with my new major. It’s change my paradigm. Usually i only choose a formula, apply and adjust with problem, analyze the result, make a summarize, done. But now, it’s a little different.
It’s still inside a computer science, but focus on technology information. To attend this major i think we must have ability to make a decision, managing something, considerate everything aspect, etc. I still lack of it.
I must give more portion to adapt with all of this if i want still to keep up with my master degree :)
PS: i also must adapt with my new girlfriend now ^,^
A battle of 7 inch tablet
Ipad mini, nexus 7, and kindle fire hd. What will you choose? This is so hard. It depend on what you already using, what os you really comfort, what platform you like it. What ideology you love it, etc.
Ipad mini have a mature platform from the other. A ton of great application. Build quality and beautifull design are plus point.
Nexus 7 also great. It has a great hardware and affordable price. With Android OS and full support from google, it’s very good device.
Kindle fire hd also have a great platfrom. This is for you who love to read (but i’ll choose kindle paper white ^^). With android os inside of it, this is also a great product.
So, what will you choose? Or i miss something? Message me.
RIM, this is your last chance
My mom recently bought a new smartphone. A new Blackberry 9320 with OS 7 already installed. This is the first time i used OS 7. My first impression are smooth like my iPhone. Easy to use. The phone’s build quality also good. Keypad, body everything is well built. I like it.
Even RIM are in crisis now, i think they still have a chance to catch up with Apple and Google with they’re upcoming BB OS 10. But if OS10 fail, You’re out of the competition. Sorry RIM.
