Minor update in the Javascript service, and also nominated for public.
Also working on a Firefox 4 compatible version, hopefully can finish before its official launch .
我一向喜歡用英文介面, o岩o岩重灌了Maverick . 但我發覺 Default setting 的英文介面 有很多的中文字是不能打入的.
再試多幾次,便發覺只有輸入繁體字時才出問題.
Installed Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix on the 701, except the mic and sound are not working, all others seems fine.

今日去馬灣公園影相, 晚上回來用了 Windows Photo Gallery 來睇相, 發覺色調偏黃. 起初以為今日天陰, 所以自動白平衡出了問題, 所以諗住用 GIMP 修正一下.
但用 GIMP 一開, 給我的感覺是簡正好似在看兩張相不同的相一樣. 雖然色是有一點偏, 但並沒有用 Windows Photo Gallery 那麼嚴重.
Having used the origin Xandros Linux on my EeePC 701 for 10 months, I have to say goodbye to it finally.
On boot-up performance, Asus really did a good job on customizing the Xandros Linux. However, this also limited the power of it.
In searching the new OS for my EeePC, EeeUser should be a good place to start with. Among the customized EeePC distributions, three of them draw my attention, they are:
Type "about:internets" in the address bar to show this Easter Egg 
Besides the previous mentioned "about:memory" page, there are actuall much more "about:" pages within Google Chrome which could give many internal information of the browser.
It seems to me that there is some problem (or a bug) with Google Chrome's font rendering engine.
Today when I test it with the KangXi Radicals page of Alan Wood's Unicode Resources, horizontal stroke is missing in some of the characters.
When I enlarge the font size the problem still there, happening on different characters.
I keep on change the font size larger until no missing stroke, guess how large the fonts need to be...
It seems there is a bug on Google Chrome to display SVG graphics.
When I use it to display the "Timeline of web browsers" from Wikipedia, it does not show any scroll bar. Although you can use zoom-in/out, or drag the picture to display area out of the window, however it is not user-friendly.
I have reported it to Google, and see whether it will be fix in future release or not.
The Google Chrome just released today, so I installed it and have a try. The interface is quite simple, working fast and smoothly.
Among the new features, I like the Incognito mode the most. With Incognito mode, it will not leave any trace of websites you have visited. All cookies and browsing history will be deleted when the windows was closed. It would be useful for visit the online banking and shopping website, such that it would lower the chance for malware or other people to get your personal data.
