Twitter E-Books

Why e-books?

I have been asking this question since the beginning of wiki and search engine. I believe many of you are asking the same question. We can just do googling to search for any information. Chances we will land on a wiki page with our first search result. We all know that almost all information today are free. As free as the Internet. Again, why e-books and pay for the prices like the print books? I would rather buy a print book myself.

I will answer this question from the content point of view. The only reason that an e-book is better than print book is because there is no actual print book that you can find in any book store for the said e-book. Well, majority of e-books on the Internet fall into that category.

An e-book organizes its content just like a book. We read an e-book using a computer or an e-book reading device. We can print an e-book for off line reading but we have to bind it ourselves or get a printing and binding service to make it look like a print book. For us not going for e-book, information or content that we can search on the Internet may be "piece meals". We have to keep on searching for details. And we have to organize our search results which can be time consuming. The problem arise when we don't know what to search for because we do not know the subject matter.

A good e-book is complete with contents. When there is an e-book, we can save our time from searching around for knowledge. And we don't have to go through a hit and miss exercise to look for knowledge. Apparently, there is low barrier of entry for a writer to produce e-book compare to print book. People with good knowledge can easily become an e-book writer. There will definitely be more e-books on the Internet and the number will grow rapidly.

I will go for an e-book for a complete knowledge that the e-book offer and to save my time searching around for the knowledge.

Setting Up PyScripter for Quantum GIS

PyScripter is a general purpose Python Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Quantum GIS (QGIS) is a desktop GIS application that can be extended with Python plugins. Both are open source softwares. We intend to use PyScripter as an IDE to build QGIS Python plugin. We are using PyScripter 2.4.1.0 and QGIS 1.6.0 in Windows. PyScripter does not come with Python. On the other hand, QGIS is built in with Python. Thus, we will setup up PyScripter to use the build in Python in QGIS. We assume both PyScripter and QGIS are already installed. Preparing PyScripter batch file We assume that QGIS is installed in C:\OSGeo4W\ folder and PyScripter is installed in C:\Program Files\PyScripter\ . 1. Copy qgis.bat in C:\OSGeo4W\ bin to pyscripter.bat 2. Edit pyscripter.bat to remove the last line that read something like this start "Quantum GIS" /B "%OSGEO4W_ROOT%"\apps\qgis\bin\qgis.exe %* and replace it with this in one line Start "PyScripter" /B "C:\Progr...

Using React in Foundation for Sites

This post was the precursor to the Foundation-React Template . React and Foundation are two different web UI frameworks addressing different needs. They evolve differently. Both of them are powerful on their own accord. Fusing them together may create superpower. We will walk through the process of adding React into Foundation. We will start by installing both Foundation and React through command line interface (CLI). Then we will create a simple Todo web app. Along the way we will highlight the development process. But before all that, let us summarize React and Foundation. The details can be found at their respective websites. Both of them are well documented. React is a run-time UI rendering engine. It renders dynamic UI elements in its own fast virtual DOM, and only update necessary changes to the slow browser DOM. This behaves like a  double buffering DOM which makes any UI update feels fast. React wraps a UI rendering script in a component. A React component can ...

Debugging PHP using Apache Error Log

PHP runs on the server side and behaves like a function that return a value against the given arguments. A remote client may call this function and expect a specified return value and nothing else. So how do we debug this function ? It must not return debugging messages since the client is never designed to handle them. We must never burden any client to handle debugging messages. If we run PHP through Apache server then we can use the error log to keep our debugging messages. It may not be the best way to do it. But we only want to talk about this approach now. Error Logs The Apache error log files generally can be found in the following directory: var/log/apache2 We issue the following command from within the directory to read the latest error messages: # tail error.log The tail command reads the last few lines from the error.log file and prints them on the terminal. If we need to read a specific number of lines from the end of the file then we can specify the -n opti...
