About nangka.org
In summary:
Nangka.org was originally registered to provide a slightly more personal email domain, but since it included some webhosting service, why not use it for other stuff as well.
Over time, I started to put my short travels on the site. Mostly pictures that are scaled to fit onto the small columns that this site allows, since I find it easier than using the gallery page. And with the added bonus of being able to include some short essay as well.
In a typical short trip, I’ll travel with a medium pack of camera gear, GPS, and my Nokia E61 phone. The E61 makes it easier to type out blog entries as it happens. At the end of the trip, I’ll send the email to my site and it gets parsed automatically into a blog entry. This might be a little crude since I have not figured out how to solve the line break display issue once published, but no problems there since I will still need to get home, load and sort all the pictures and edit them for upload to the site. Call this post processing. So don’t be surprised if you see a raw post with no photos, and then refinements a week later.
I guess I should do a summary page here to list out the URLs of the locations I have been to, which is easier than you having to scroll thru the category!
Notes:- Posts are categorized according to their high level subject. I try to include subjects and categories that are very high level so that I can combine my previous multiple blogs in Movable Type into just 1 blog in the current system. This simplifies the website a lot.
Emailing me:
- I have been thinking about putting my email address on this website, but knowing how spam crawlers are trolling the web for email addresses, I’m sure once I do this my main mailbox will start to be filled up with pen*s enlargement and stock recommendation mails. So, not planning to include my email at all.
- Here’s a trick. Post a comment, and I’ll see it when its being moderated, in effect its like emailing me! Maybe I’ll contact you by email and that way you have my email address. Simple init?
