Eclipse and NetBeans

Comparisons have been made over and over again, and here is one. I was kind of used to Eclipse + Eclipse plugin and too lazy to try out NetBeans. But actually, why not using both? I'll try out NetBeans' UML and GUI tool tomorrow. Heard lots of compliments to them :)

Free Internet Forum Software

Today I looked into free forum software, and found these two: NextBBS @ www.nextbbs.com, and AEF @ www.anelectron.com. In case building a forum, they seem worth trying. Here is another link of several others, and a comparison on Wikipedia which may help.

Chicken wing dinner

Headache whole day. Probably because just ate a bit tomato egg soup until 6 p.m.? So I made some chicken wings I bought today, accompanied with mushrooms and bamboos. The headache disappeared while I was cooking, but tragically it recurred after eating. What's wrong with my head? Food addicted?

Simple chicken wing recipe

1. Condiment: 1/3~1/2 spoon paprika, 1/2 spoon salt, 1/3 spoon basil and 2 spoon oil for 4 chicken wings.
2. Mix the condiments first, then with chicken wings. Marinate for at least 20 minutes.
3. Broil or fry (without extra oil) until golden brown.

Free SMS

I used some free web SMS services before, however so-called free is often just bait, or if a site once worked it became lousy after a while and I was never sure if the other side received it. As sending SMS from handy directly is anyway not expensive, I just switched to do so. Actually I call instead of SMS, because my Yesss call per minute is even cheaper than SMS.

Since ??? (don't remember... but loooong), I was vexed that Yesss is unable to send Chris SMS :-( International calls to D.R.Congo are €€€, so what can I do? This time !tonight! I surfed around web and finally found something cool. Post the links here maybe you will need. I hope my findings will keep working for a while.

• 50 free SMS after registration: www.smssend.org, ok for Germany and Austria, but not for D.R.Congo, the other countries I don't know... try it out.
• Free SMS to UK: www.cbfsms.com. Not difficult to find in google that there are SO many free SMS, handy logo and ringtone sites for UK.
  
• Here is the really cool thing I meant www.sms-lotse.de. Although many ads, it simply worked - I sent SMS to Congo... magnificent! You can also go to www.smsgott.de straightly.
  
  

Oh right, if you don't know German, here is howto.

1. type handy number under Empfänger box, and message in Nachricht box, then click Weiter
2. an ad box will appear, just wait for several seconds untill another page loads, a confirmation of what you've tpyed in will appear
3. now you can click the ad box which is above Bitte hier klicken, um Ihre SMS zu senden
4. another ad window will open, but doesn't matter, just return to the original tab where you were and wait for a few seconds. If you see a message Ihre SMS wurde erfolgreich verschickt, it means the SMS is sent.
