this is wha i write on my gadget page before, which is my “idealy” setup.

• using iMac at home doing development
• using N810 iphone/ipod touch as mobile device on the road
• using a netbook for going around

Yes , i own all these now, sold my macbook pro this year and change it to iMac , getting a refurbished ipod touch as birthday present and bought a netbook recently, for 2009 the only thing i would like to change will be my mobile phone. G1 ? or iPhone ? or maybe the rumor iPhone nano ?

For web application/web service 2008, these are my favourite 12 service

1. Gmail – being my main mail client, i like all the label, filtering and IMAP feature.
2. Coogle Calendar – my major calendar servie, that let me plan my schedule, sync with my ical.
3. Google Analytics – using it to keep track my blog stat.
   
4. Google Reader – my favourite rss feed reader , now it sync with my ipod touch through byline for my daily morning travel.
5. Del.icio.us – still my favourite bookmark manager, can’t find any replacement.
6. Facebook – my favourite social network service 2008, help me in sync with my friend and know what happen to them.
7. Twitter – i post most of my thinking on plurk, twitter more like for me to see what other is talking.
8. Plurk – micro blogging , if facebook is for me to in sync with my real life friend, the Plurk is more like for me to in sync with my virtual friend.
9. Netvibes – it’s my start page for some time already, allow me to keep track a lots of thing inlcude my email, my blog comments and some tech news.
10. Buxfer – i blog about this recently , it keep track my income and expenses.
11. Remember The Milk – my GTD tools , todo list that remind me what i need to do
12. Evernote – my notes apps, currently fill with a lots of notes that i need read

• You might heard about I love jack daniel before and after trademark issue , he is coming back as addedbytes , if you are a web developer, you can’t miss his blog,  you can find lots of cheatsheet and web application tips there.
• I been thinking one day if possible i would like to become a freelancer , thats why freelanceswitch is one of my favourite blog, lots of freelance tips has been share in the blog , they recommend some useful tools for web use too.
• Not every blog complete with words, i like The Bitter Stickgirl because the way she blog was drawing some simple line and connnect it , you get what she mean even there are no words.
• I don’t know how to describe the mighty zeus’s blog – Cowboy Caleb , but it’s highly recommend ( sometime there are some nice NSFW post ! )
• I think i recommend a taiwan blog durng 2005, this year the taiwan blog that i recommend will be 四小折 , not sure what to call it in english, but i like the comics he draw.

so these are the 5 blog i recommend , combine with different variety, different style of blog.

The post Resolutions 2008 appeared first on I'm Knight.

This blog without any post since 19th Dec , there are 2 random post on end of 2007 , until today 13th of Jan 2008 , it’s nearly one month break, i completed my new theme and kick start of my blog engine again.

There are quite a few thing that keep me busy , one of the reason is working on this theme and the other reason is i m busy playing World Of Warcraft again ,  yeah one of the hot MMORPG that i playing few year ago, until 30 min ago , i m 20% more experience to reach level 70, the max level of this game.

I think lots of post is pending in my mind, example like going through 2007 resolutions , prepare 2008 resolutions and some of the topic that i been keep in my todo list, lets just hope i m still have fresh memory on things that i would like to blog.

anyway l want to say one more time , lets hope 2008 rocks !
