当Google不喜欢google时

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 17, 2006 – 11:06 pm -

Google的奇迹之一就是把自己的brand动词名词形容词化。例如一个人要讲一样东西,他们就会讲,“go and google it”。

What has Google upset is people who use phrases like “I’m going to google it” or “I just googled his name on the Internet and found what I was looking for.” “We think it’s important to make the distinction between using the word ‘Google’ to describe using Google to search the Internet and using the word ‘google’ to generally describe searching the Internet. It has some serious trademark issues,” said a representative for Google.

就像你讲无聊小站很无聊,可是事实上你没什么去读,你没资格讲我无聊一样。

Google has announced to offer free Internet access to everyone in its Silicon Valley hometown. The new wireless network is believed to establish Mountain View, California as the largest U.S. city with free Internet access available throughout the entire community.

—— SDA India Magazine – Google Provide Free Internet service

虽然很多年以前,马来西亚的MSC(Multimedia Super Corridor)立志要追上美国的Silicon Valley,不过到今时今地,由于行政人员的马虎,还有种种申请license的关卡,导致很多外国公司止步来马来西亚。而Tmnet这个monopolized大马网络市场的呢,他们提供的streamyx三天两头就down,你说奇怪不奇怪?

对了,其实把一个字verblize, adjectivelize和nounlize不只是google罢了,“学运”也是。

学运:“我是学运,我搞学运的,我在学运做工,我做的事很学运。”

好的正义定于人

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 17, 2006 – 10:50 pm -

如果你觉得一样东西好,不管它再怎么不好,它还是好的。

There are two types of people who will tell tou that you cannot make a difference in this world: Those who are afraid to try and those who are afraid you will succeed. —— Ray Goforth

有时候,我觉得这些勉励的话还真的只为了勉励而勉励,有些人也误解了它。这句话你要知道,你做的东西真地会很轰动(可是大多人都是在做白日梦),还有,看那个告诉你做不到的人是谁。

我不是在泼冷水,只是讲出你不想听的话,就是所谓的忠言逆耳。如果你真地对了,你可以小我,我没什么的,不过如果你错了,我一定会笑你。正义和好与不好的东西,都是定于人,没个准则的。

测谎

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 16, 2006 – 5:00 pm -

话说不会说话的人最能够观察得出谁在说谎。这道理和我最近那个教life-saving的教练一样,叫人游泳自己永远不下水。

虽然有很多方式和肢体语言能够让你发觉一个人在说谎,可是很常时候,这些肢体语言也能够误导你。有些人更会故意做这些动作来让你以为他在说谎(例如闪缩的眼神)。

我们需要钱旅行

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 15, 2006 – 10:56 pm -

旅游部长东姑安南说话了: “我已指示研究與改造組進行調查,以發掘更多地方讓國內外旅客觀光。

另外一个blogger也说话了:

Those who travel abroad often are either wealthy or funded by employers or sponsors and are not likely to heed the minister’s call. However those who do travel domestically are right now suffering from the effects of the fuel hike, electricity tariff rate increase and the subsequent rise in prices of almost all essentials. In this situation how do you expect them to travel, when even making ends meet is becoming a tough enough task?

是啊,我要钱。

什么DVD来的?

smoothriver看到翻译对法的东西,想也不想就挑战看看。结果越翻译越不对劲。

所以这是不健康内容,这是一个错误。

既然这个文章是一个错误,为什么我还是贴出来呢?那是因为我都已经翻译超过一半了,半途而废有点可惜。

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 14, 2006 – 9:09 pm -

原来画猪也可以测试你的性格的。这是我画得猪。

目前有1,153,785个人画了猪,每几分钟就有新的人来测试。

你画猪的功力有多深呢?

今天不知道为什么一直把下巴讲成额头。
