Who was hot? Who was cool? Things are different now. We live in the future, and there's a new ruling class.
There's never been a better time to be a geek. After decades, if not centuries of persecution, ridicule and never, ever getting the girl, geeks are hot. They are scientists, programmers, artists, musicians, actors, videogamers, skateboarders and architects. They have risen above unimaginative educational systems, hostile social environments, and conventional employers to develop the most liberating, global, inventive and democratic culture on the planet. They are geeks and their time has come. Geek Chic begins by tracing the rise of Geek culture particularly in movies, television, music and media and goes on to present an extensive timeline of geek history over the millennia with short biographical sketches of O.G.’s (original geeks), such as Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Spike Jonze.

Voice over IP communication network
VoIP allows you to make voice communications(like phone call) using a computer network, over a data network like the Internet. VoIP converts the voice signal from your telephone into a digital signal that travels over the internet then converts it back at the other end so you can speak to anyone with a regular phone number.

Blog universe!!!
部落格(BLOG)網路日誌
部落格在本質上和個人網站、新聞台一樣,部落格(Blog)的行為有點像是交換日記,共享經驗,不同以往的是這樣的日記, 包含著文字、影像、音樂、等多媒體的格式,也有著不同以往的功能性與便利性,就我的觀點而言,以往的個人網站、個人電子報、新聞台、BBS上的個版,討論區和留言版,雖然有其相當的地位卻都有其未竟完善的一面。
