In 1998, when most of my friends were still using paper and envelope to send their mails, I made my first Hotmail email address. For more than 4 months, there are no emails other than junk mails there. Oh yes, plus one email I forced my friend to send me, titled “test” with content “okay, okay, here is an email for you”.
Later in the same year, I learnt HTML and made my first web page. I was so excited to have a simple HTML page with my scanned photo on it, my name with different colors each character, then a big font of “Welcome to My Homepage”. The next day, I went to university’s computer lab to create a Geocities account to upload my homepage. From all people that I know, I was the first to have a personal homepage on the net, even though it was just a single lame page.

Being a very interesting anime, Angel Beats! surely become one of my favorite this season.
1. It’s the only anime that started with all characters already dead. It’s kinda unique concept.
2. While some people related Yurippe with Haruhi, I personally thinks they are far different. And this show turned out to be reasonably different from Haruhi, except for the shadows that look like Koizumi’s monsters.

Wait, it’s not chapter 3, but part 3, what happened? Calm down, this release is the one you expected. Apparently the length of each chapter in Kira-kira Kaoru can be greatly different. Some chapters only has 20-30 pages while some others can have hundreds of pages. Therefore I changed the release system. One volume will [...]

Having purchased the manga, I tried to look for the English translation from the Internet. After searching for few weeks, I could not find anything other than a nice RAW scan from VNSharing.
So I decided to try starting this scanlation project.
This is a one person project, so speed is obviously out of concern.
I will finish this great manga, especially when I receive enough feedback from all of you, readers.
You are free to download and re-distribute the release, but please do not remove or edit any page, including the credit page. Please use the original zip file for redistribution.

Just like other kids, I love to watch cartoon when I was little. No specific word of anime that time. I basically watch everything, from The Flistones to Donald Duck, from Superman to Voltus. As far as I can remember, Voltus is probably the first anime I have ever watched. I liked it, but it did not make me love Japanese anime as a specific type of art, different from other cartoons.

Imagine you have worked on a project for 6 months. Tomorrow is your final presentation, the big day that will decide the success or fail of all your hard work. You’ve been working all night to finish your presentation. In the morning when you wake up, your hard disk crashed. All data lost. How will you feel?

This review will compare some of the basic features of Personal Computer running Windows XP and Windows 7 (I hate Windows Vista) with Mac computers running OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. While this review might indicate that one system is better than the other (for some aspects), the original intention was to help new learners to understand the differences, as well as strengths and weaknesses of the two systems.
