Fearless Foodie’s Field Guide to Kapitolyo’s Best Restaurants updated!

I didn’t expect more foodies would be drawn to the infographic on restaurants in Kapitolyo. Like me, a lot of people are now excited for the launch of this app. How I wish I could view the app even if it’s in beta. I would love to share my thoughts on the iPhone app being an Apple fan girl. Hihi.

Looloo has updated the foodie guide as requested:

What is the Best Data Storage Solution for Home?

Husband and I are on the lookout for an external HD. I have a 250GB Western Digital I bought from Bangkok four years ago but it’s full already and it’s got some weird virus inside. I have made a back up of my most important files already so I won’t have to be depressed should it finally decide not to cooperate.

I have a few online storage accounts but I don’t like the fact that some of my files are “out there”.  These are private storage places but anything can happen and my stuff could be leaked and exposed to the whole  world (wide web).

We’ve decided to buy two. He needs a separate one because my files are not as important and are prone to  viruses (read: downloaded media files). But what I want next is to have it “networked”. I want a wireless external hard drive that I could access over WiFi from my computer, iPhone, and iPad. We’re planning on going all-digital at home for our future home media entertain system.

There are too many options out there! My cousin advised that we setup a NAS (network-attached storage) system since it’s what they have at home. Then there’s the option to use either Airport Express or Airport Extreme by Apple since it’s easier to set up and you can attach the printer and external hard drive to it.

And then there’s cloud storage to think about too. There are more websites offering online storage service but I’m leaning towards Google Drive for my husband and I to share.

How to Check Page Source on Mac

I sometimes check a website’s Page Source when I want to know how a certain image, video, or text has been placed within the design. This is how I learn HTML. My knowledge is basic and only improved a bit. I’m neither a web designer nor a developer but I can understand how, why, and where some codes are.

I recently discovered that you can not easily check the Page Source on Safari. I was about to check the code of Apple.com because I wanted to embed a Quicktime video for an article I’m working on.

It’s easy to do on Firefox:

Press RIGHT click and a drop down menu will show, choose View Page Source.
