last.fm, Increased Limits, Feedback Request, and India Travels [09 Oct 2008|04:00pm] news [theljstaff] Last.fm in Journal Entries Are you a last.fm user? The updated Music field on the Post an Entry page can now automatically fill in what you're listening to when you write the post. To enable this feature, fill in your last.fm username in the field under Contact Info on the Edit Profile page. This also adds a link to your last.fm profile on your LiveJournal Profile page. Then download the scrobbler client from last.fm. When it's installed, just click the Detect button by the Music field on the Post an Entry page and the scrobbler automatically pulls through the track information of what you're listening to on your music player or music program. You can also use the feature without downloading the scrobbler client. If you're logged in and listening to last.fm over the Internet, click Detect to pull through the artist and title of the track playing. If the song changes while you're writing your entry, just click Detect again to update the Music field. And for more musical accompaniment, last.fm also has a widget you can embed in your profile or a journal entry that displays what you're listening to in real time. Increased Limits for Poll Results and Comments Back in August we promised an increase in limits for poll results and comments. And now they're here. You can now view more than 2000 votes in the detailed view of poll results, and the limit for comments allowed for a post has been raised to 10,000, up from 5000. After the first 5000 comments, every comment will require a CAPTCHA. Feedback Request on New Find Your Friends Feature We're working on an optional feature that will make it easier for you to find out if existing friends in your web-based email contacts are LJ users. Once you find them, you'll be able to quickly add their journals to your Friends page. We know your privacy is very important to you, so we're interested in getting your feedback about this new feature. A full description, including the proposed privacy settings, is available in feedback. Let us know what you think. India Travels Community Have you explored the subcontinent? From the heights of the Himalayas to the beaches of Kerala, India is so vast and varied that you'll discover something new wherever you go, no matter how many people have been there before. We've partnered with travel writer Ajay Jain of Kunzum to create a community where you can share your stories, anecdotes, and tips about traveling in India. What was the most amazing thing you saw? Where did you go that can't be found with a Google search? Where do you want to go next? Selected entries will be considered for publication (with full credit, and only if you give permission) in travel books about India. So whether you've been to India, want to go to India, or aspire to write about India, you should take a trip over to india_travels. And More There's lots of other stuff going on, too. See lj_releases to get all the details. 293 comments|post comment

[06 Oct 2008|08:05am] francison114 My furniture pieces were delivered today. I'm soooo exciiittteeeedd for the room! Anyway, had a major fight with my Dad today. AS IN MAJOR. Earlier this day i felt like the hatred I had would be enough for me to last forever without talking and avoiding ALL kinds of contact with him. Right now I still feel so angry. I still dont want to talk to him, i still dont want to see him, and just for this moment, I dont EVER want to have to do anything with him. I'm getting old. It's time to move out of the house. PUTEK just when I've started to really go serious on the interior design eh merong pa move out effect na kong kinoconsider. hayyyy. post comment

[05 Oct 2008|06:30am] francison114 Work Updates: 1 month came by and still no sale. Grabe, it's so hard. Sometimes you get to think that it's impossible to make a sale. But that of course, is wrong. It just takes a lot of time and effort to REALLY make one. I was talking to one girl who's been working at tagaytay highlands for quite some time now and i was ranting that it's my 2nd month and still I don't have a sale yet. She was like surprised to hear my ranting and told me not to worry cause that's normal. First sales occur usually on the 4th month. But then again, i still don't wanna be complacent. MAKING SALES IS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS. I'm considering looking for another job, one that really is FUN. I would love to work in a place where I really look forward to all the details of the job. And of course, I want a job with a higher pay. A friend of mine's offering me a job as a store manager in one of his upcoming restaurants. That's a very promising opportunity, pero ayokong mapahiya cause of course, I may know a lot about food and management, but I have no experience in store managing whatsoever. What I really want is a job in rustan's a brand management and brand marketing job. Grabe, working and earning on your own is such a novelty for me. Of course I earn my own money but then I also have to budget it and stuff. Something that's quite hard of course. With that kind of pay, EVERYTHING IS LIMITED. New Room Updates: Well i've been going around looking for furniture for my new room, I finalized the details of my room with the contractor and my room is like a mixture of zen, asian, and modern. I LOVE IT! I ordered this three piece hanging votive candle holder that looks like miniature asian cages.. I LOVE IT! Anyway I still need a tall coffee table that comes with tall chairs, a long table for the wall thing, a bed, and some more furniture. ETC. Updates: Because of my work, I can't seem to go back to my old businesses such as my baking and my catering. I am actually about to turn down 2 catering offers. JUST BECAUSE OF THIS JOB. hmmmmmmmm.. I seriously have to think about nursing though. I'm planning on taking up the board exams this june and from there i'd be fixing all of my stuff for employment abroad. ANYWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, We saw each other again last monday and wala lang.. Good times, good times. But then again, hirap pa rin umasa. I'm so dreading that feeling na, just when you think you're on top of the world, slowly, everything starts to fade. I just wanna be happy. Please let me be happy! post comment
