Continuity Plans or Systems

A friend asked myself why we(AdvGen) always recommend all of our clients have some Continuity Plans or Systems if their IT system is essential for their business. She said if all go well, there should be not any problems. I asked her what if something goes wrong, they may lose money or clients. We cannot assume the things go well. This is not a prefect world, if anything can go wrong, there is possible to go wrong. Thus, we have to assume the worst situation can happen, how we can deal with that.

The reasons to have many blogs

A lot of people asked me why I have a number of blogs. Firstly, some of them are more professional. I did a proof read and someone did a proof read too! I even shows them to my clients. Some of them are very personal blogs. I do not bother there are some typo and grammar mistakes. That is for myself only.
Another reason is more technical. Blogs are separated into a number of servers and hosting providers. It will separate out work load. Moreover, no single point of failure! This is very important!

Very Tired

Today is the first day back to office. I am very tired. I got married on sat, and I spent two days in gold coast with my relative and my wife. Moreover, there are so many pending tasks need to be finished. I am exhausted.

May not able to do it better.

That is very easy to make some comments about other people work and make some suggestions to them.
In the most situations, we have considered those situations beforehand. In the majority of cases, we had not time or budget to take those suggestions. Also, in some situations , we are lack of experiences to carry out the tasks. My friends, we always try our best. However , that is the real world, nothing can be perfect .

Backup Plans are activated

The wedding is an important moment. However, that is a big project. I treated that as a project too. Thus, I have some backup plans in places to deal with the situations. For example, I found my own suits are not fitted for me anymore. I hired a suit.

The problem is all backup plans required extra budget. Actually, that is the reason, I treated those options as a backup before!

I love  .Net User Group Brisbane meeting. We need to have this kind of meeting to stay updated as .Net developer. Also, we can have chances to do networking with other developers.

Half day EKKA Holiday

Today is EKKA Show Holiday for Brisbane people.  At the morning, I was still getting some work done. 
However, I was still a bit bust at the morning. I got off around mid-night. We went to Gold coast.
1st stop is Hinze Dam. We spent about an hour walking around near the dam.
Then we were continue our journey to Natural Bridge. Our destination is the Glow worms cave. We arrived there around 5pm and waiting for sunset, so that, the sky was completely dark. At that period, worms would start to emit the light. 

We saw glow worms, but there were not many of them. Around 6.30pm, we started to go back.

Then we were at the last stop , Surfers Paradise. We had Sushi and Sashimi in Yamasakura

That was a enjoy day, that sounds we have been a lot of places in just half day!

Luckily, I got a full tank for my car

:Last night, I saw a 7-11 petrol station rise in pinelands raised the price to 156.9 cents per litre. Then I guess there will be petrol price is going to rocket high again. Then I got a full tank for my car for 146.9 per litre. This morning, I went out from home, I saw the most of stations list the price at 159.9 cents per litre. That is more than 10 cents different!

157.9 cents per litre in 7-11 at pinelands road

Around 10.30 pm, I drove passed  7-11 petrol station at pinelands road. I saw that was 157.9 cents per litre. But after that, I was still driving along the road, I saw Woolworth and BP were selling 146.9 cents per litre. I am worrying about the others petrol stations will follow 7-11 to rise the price. I got my car fuel up for 146.9.

I got a cheaper fuel in Gold Coast

Yesterday, I got a full tank of fuel in Gold Coast, that was only 147.9 cents per litre, while Brisbane was selling 152.9 cents per litre. I think that is still cheaper in Gold Coast. There are some websites have the fuel per suburb, may be you can do a online research for suburbs nearly. There may be some suburbs have cheaper fuel price!

First Night without coffee

Recently, I am so so busy and tired. After my dinner, I still need to work and learn iOS programming. So, I used to have a cup of coffee with my dinner to keep myself awake. But tonight, I had a coffee-free dinner, that sounds a bit healthier. But I am so sleepy and I went out for dropping my friend back to home too! Moreover, Mains Road had two roadworks. That was a long and painful joinery.
