Add Blogumus to Blogger

Blogumus is a flash based tag cloud which display all of your blog label in a nice flash animation. It is very simple to add it into your Blogger. If you're using the new Blogger template (not Dynamic template), then open your Blogger template and proceed to Edit HTML.

There, check the 'Expand Widget template' checkbox and search for something like this one:
<b:section-contents id="sidebar-right-1">
.
.
.
</b:section-contents>

If you've found it, there you'll found all of your sidebar widget. Just add this code so it'll become like this one:
<b:section-contents id="sidebar-right-1">
.
.
.
<b:widget id='Label99' locked='false' title='tag cloud' type='Label'>
  <b:includable id='main'>
    <b:if cond='data:title'>
      <h2><data:title/></h2>
    </b:if>
    <div class='widget-content'>
      <script src='http://sites.google.com/site/bloggerustemplatus/code/swfobject.js' type='text/javascript'/>
      <div id='flashcontent'>Blogumulus by <a href='http://www.roytanck.com/'>Roy Tanck</a> and <a href='http://www.bloggerbuster.com'>Amanda Fazani</a></div>
        <script type='text/javascript'>
        var so = new SWFObject(&quot;http://sites.google.com/site/bloggerustemplatus/code/tagcloud.swf&quot;, &quot;tagcloud&quot;, &quot;240&quot;, &quot;300&quot;, &quot;7&quot;, &quot;#ffffff&quot;);
        // uncomment next line to enable transparency
        so.addParam(&quot;wmode&quot;, &quot;transparent&quot;);
        so.addVariable(&quot;tcolor&quot;, &quot;0x333333&quot;);
        so.addVariable(&quot;mode&quot;, &quot;tags&quot;);
        so.addVariable(&quot;distr&quot;, &quot;true&quot;);
        so.addVariable(&quot;tspeed&quot;, &quot;100&quot;);
        so.addVariable(&quot;tagcloud&quot;, &quot;<tags><b:loop values='data:labels' var='label'><a expr:href='data:label.url' style='12'><data:label.name/></a></b:loop></tags>&quot;);
        so.addParam(&quot;allowScriptAccess&quot;, &quot;always&quot;);
        so.write(&quot;flashcontent&quot;);
      </script>
    <b:include name='quickedit'/>
    </div>
  </b:includable>
</b:widget>
</b:section-contents>

Get back "save tabs & quit" in Firefox 4

[Tested on Firefox 4,5,6,7] This is a short trick to bring back save tabs and quit when you close your Firefox. In Firefox 3, when you have 2 tabs or more and you want to close your Firefox, you'll see notification about saving your tabs. How to enable it in Firefox 4?

1. Open your Firefox and type about:config in Firefox address bar and of course I'll be careful, I promise!

2. Go to the filter box and type quitwarning and it'll show something like this
browser.showQuitWarning

3. Right click on this item and choose toggle. Set the value from false to true.

That's all guys. Try it now :)

Configure Thunderbird and Live@Edu email

I began to set up everything when I arrived in Linux Mint. Some interface changed and some application changed too. Because I'm a student of Ma Chung University, and I have an student email (Live@Edu) so I think I must configure an email client to help me maintain my student email. I found Thunderbird inside Linux Mint, and how to set my student email on it?

The procedure is very-very easy, because every email client will help you to do that. All you need to know is configuration setting for POP or IMAP for incoming messages and SMTP for outgoing messages, especially for student email. Let's solve this configuration now. For incoming server configuration, you can choose POP or IMAP, but IMAP is the suggested option.
