New Blog Name and Domain

Today is quite a day for me and my blog. I decided to change my blog name from a programmer's thought into a computer geek's blog. The reason is because the old name is not so relevant with the content of my blog. Thus, instead of focusing in programming-related post, I can freely put anything as long as it has something to do with computer *wink*.
The domain is also changed. I used to use a subdomain from blogger habsq.blogspot.com, but then a friend of mine (yes, even a computer geek has friends) told me that it is better to use a domain of my own. Finding the right name for my blog is quite painful experience. Most of the name I thought has already been registered, especially because I prefer to have a .com or .net extension which sounds much cooler than those with .us or .info for example ;) Ultimately I decided to use the name www.geekyblogger.com which doesn't sound too bad, don't you think so? I used NameCheap to register and it's quite cheap since I used a promotion code “ROSEMONTH” (thanks to Qiqinofa). So, please be nice to me and update your bookmark will you?

I will keep my hosting in blogger until I decide that I really need my own hosting for this blog. For now, enjoy my blog!

Is It Legal To Be This Good?

Yupe, that's one of the comments targeted to macpulenta, a user in YouTube.

Check this out:


This guy is really awesome, not to mention that it's not his only work published at YouTube. I guess it is worthed as the first video in my blog. Nice work... I mean amazing!!

Btw, who's the guy he painted anyway? Not really that important though.

For those of you who's expecting something that's programming-related, sorry to disappoint you this time...

Programmer Personality Type

You can find the test here

Anyway, this is my result (though I couldn't say that I agree with this):

Your programmer personality type is:

PLSB

You're a Planner.
You may be slow, but you'll usually find the best solution. If something's worth doing, it's worth doing right.


You like coding at a Low level.
You're from the old school of programming and believe that you should have an intimate relationship with the computer. You don't mind juggling registers around and spending hours getting a 5% performance increase in an algorithm.


You work best in a Solo situation.
The best way to program is by yourself. There's no communication problems, you know every part of the code allowing you to write the best programs possible.


You are a liBeral programmer.
Programming is a complex task and you should use white space and comments as freely as possible to help simplify the task. We're not writing on paper anymore so we can take up as much room as we need.

The Reason Behind this Blog

It's quite surprising -even for myself- that I actually working on a blog. While writing is not one of my favourite thing to do, writing in English is even worse! Let's go back a little to see why I'm doing this.

Several weeks ago, I was applying an admission to study in Netherlands. One of its requirements is make a essay about my motivation, what I interested in, etc. It's been a real hardship for me to finish the essay. I need two weeks to finish my first page while at I had to write at least 7 pages! OMG... And -just between me and you-... It still hasn't finished... The reason why I was spending so much time to write is because my vocabs are very limited! (While the grammar make another bonus to difficulty level). By doing thins blogging thing I hope that my writing skill will be slightly increased. Hooray!!

Never hesitate to say: "your writing is a mess!" or "I don't understand what you are trying to write", etc. After all, I should make some mistakes before correcting it...
