Eleven years back, I started blogging at Blogger.com as a hobby, using our slow dial-up Internet connection. Facebook was so young at that time, and the latest emerging trend was called "Blogging". The new unfamiliar English word 'blogging' created so much desire to experiment with the new thing. My little write-ups didn't attract much, so I closed the blog in ...

In my last blog post I insisted that everyone should learn how to code. If you are a JIRA administrator who would like to do some advanced sort of stuff, keep reading, you'll find out how a little bit of coding can help marvellously. I have a limited OOP background, in fact I've never been a Java programmer, so I ...

I'm just writing my own way that I followed in the situation.This happened during ...

This is going to be quite a short blog post. I bought an Android device. Well this is no big thing because it's been almost five years since the first release of Android. But I'm new to it. Still grabbing bits and pieces on how to use it. I've been using several mobile devices time to time over the past ...

Recently I saw some videos spreading on Facebook. 'Spreading', in the sense that people watch and share. What so special with these videos was, their thumbnails had that "Youtube feel", but seemed bit different. Also, most of these had eye-catching titles (in Sinhala), and eye-catching thumbnails (For example, a girl changing her dress... ;-) ). I actually clicked on one ...

Recently, I was assigned for a project that required one-way synchronization of data, from MS Access to MySQL. This was required to be fully automated to make the task executed once a day. It has already been implemented by someone else before, using PHP as the programming language, and SOAP protocol as the underlying technology. The implementation had several issues, ...

First of all, let me tell you why I'm afrer Vice City this much. I like the story, I' enthusiastic about the 80's style, I like the music, and many more reasons. I have played many other games, and I have played other releases of GTA as well but none of them were able to keep me addicted. Are you ...

I'm using a Sony Ericsson K770i for more than 1½ years. Since I'm a novice and hobbist photographer my choice was that cameraphone. Recently, the camera seemed to malfunction. When I open the lens cover, the screen switches between camera viewport and home screen repeatively. Sometimes it looked OK until I capture the scene. This behaviour made things more annoying. ...

If you've read my last post you'll find that I had a trip to Jaffna. Yes, it was last month, but I had nothing to do other than waiting for my internet connection to be restored. Sad. :( Early in the last month, our ADSL router seemed not working properly. So we handed it over to claim warranty. This caused ...
