			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>well, what a feeling now hmm.. just a deep breath and a bit relax with ice mocha at a cafe in the crowding mall, something has remind me of what I was doing last few years on blogging workshop tour, cloggers, and what I should be doing next. feeling like ashame that I was always walking away from the path where I should be heading hikhik..it&#8217;s kinda hard to keep ourself along huh? </p>
<p>maybe it&#8217;s just too many thing in the heAd <img src='http://khmerak.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  been keeping myself so busy getting into a new thing that I never really doing it before of Linux hacking. from a creative UI designer and front end enginneer to a really hardcore programmer and Linux sysadmin it&#8217;s really a lot of things n fun and to be really a hackaholic uhoh! but there&#8217;s still long way to go. </p>
<p>actually m not really a sysadmin, howevere, to answer to most people of what I am really doing, I am doing web stuff! and enjoy moving around.  but almost forgetting that lately since so many things to be done. hmm&#8230; </p>
<p>almost keep this blog dead hikhik.. maybe I just can&#8217;t really focus on the topic or probably m de worst story teller <img src='http://khmerak.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  however there&#8217;s some changes now to the tittle now to &#8221; around Cambodia &#038; technology&#8221; cos feeel like it&#8217;s what I can tell better about, and hopefully I&#8217;ll be around in de next few months. </p>
<p>so yeah, there&#8217;s a lot more thing to talk about, travelling And hacking. so will continue in de next kafe time. </p>
<p>now gotta signoff to get some stuff done!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This might be good to try while if you are looking for a tool to manage your blog (wordpress) or reblogging since I feel it is also a motivated way, from iPhone or iPod touch. Automatic, company that made wordpress, has also just made the version 2.0 of their wordpress iPhone app which what I am trying to tell and using to write this now. It is a nice free app to manage the wordpress blog even the self hosted one or at wordprss.com.</p>
<p>Making a new post, replying to new comments, and managing old posts are quite easy and look really motivated with the iPhone os interface. I can feel it&#8217;s quite comfortable to work with and love as the gmail app that I&#8217;ve using. But the little problem might be it&#8217;s a bit difficult to type with iPhone os keyboard. </p>
<p>Anyway this is just a first test post to see if it&#8217;s really cool new thing to spend time with and start writing more this and that, because normally I am bad/lazy to write long paragraph since it requires to really focus and normally it would not take that short. So that is why Twitter and facebook commenting sharing is the two big thig people having fun with. 140 characters is easy/fun to write while many paragraph would make people bore to write as they&#8217;re not writer. Well this just mean I enjoy tweeting than writting this post.</p>
<p>However, I am finding it&#8217;s fun again to do with this wordpress app on iPhone os. Let&#8217;s see hopefully my blog will then again alive <img src='http://khmerak.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  </p>
<p>Cheers!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve always got confuse (4get neng na) when mostly starting a new rails app and have it configured to work with git. So here&#8217; s a quick note to remember:</p>
<p>new rails app:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><table><tr><td class="line_numbers"><pre>1
</pre></td><td class="code"><pre class="language" style="font-family:monospace;">$&gt; sudo rails my_new_app</pre></td></tr></table></div>

<p>Then add a git to it:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><table><tr><td class="line_numbers"><pre>1
2
</pre></td><td class="code"><pre class="language" style="font-family:monospace;">$&gt; cd my_new_app
$&gt; sudo git init</pre></td></tr></table></div>

<p>Then just tell git who were are:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><table><tr><td class="line_numbers"><pre>1
</pre></td><td class="code"><pre class="language" style="font-family:monospace;">$&gt;git config --global user.name &quot;Your Name&quot;; git config --global user.email &quot;your@email.com&quot;</pre></td></tr></table></div>

<p>Tell git to ignore some files and folders<br />
at application root create .gitignore file containing:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><table><tr><td class="line_numbers"><pre>1
2
</pre></td><td class="code"><pre class="language" style="font-family:monospace;">$&gt; sudo touch .gitignore
$&gt; sudo vim .gitignore</pre></td></tr></table></div>

<p>and you may add the following to .gitignore</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><table><tr><td class="line_numbers"><pre>1
2
3
4
5
</pre></td><td class="code"><pre class="language" style="font-family:monospace;">log/*.log
tmp/**/*
.DS_Store
doc/api
doc/app</pre></td></tr></table></div>

<p>Create some more .gitignore files so the empty directories get tracked:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><table><tr><td class="line_numbers"><pre>1
2
</pre></td><td class="code"><pre class="language" style="font-family:monospace;">$&gt; touch log/.gitignore
$&gt; touch tmp/.gitignore</pre></td></tr></table></div>

<p>and commit:</p>

<div class="wp_syntax"><table><tr><td class="line_numbers"><pre>1
2
</pre></td><td class="code"><pre class="language" style="font-family:monospace;">$ git add .
$ git commit -m &quot;initial Rails app&quot;</pre></td></tr></table></div>

<p>That&#8217;s it!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last Saturday, was another day that we&#8217;ve metup, barcampers, to talk more about how the Barcamp Phnom Penh 2 would be. There was Jinja and Tharum also joining the discussion with four members from previous meeting, @chriscambo, @DarrenJenson, @Paul, and me.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve been still fighting for the best venue to host, which some of the most important the venue should have are : Big Main Hall, Few Extra rooms around, and Some space outside. It&#8217;s kinda hard to find. Some have suggested to look again at CJCC, previous one the barcampphnompenh were hosted. But it&#8217;s not work as we do not want to host it at same same place.</p>
<p>Anyways, we&#8217;ve took sometime to share our discussion and planning here : http://barcamp.org/BarCampPhnomPenh<br />and more soon, we&#8217;d update the barcampphnompenh.org site for more information toward the next event.</p>
<p>You can also join by editing the page at http://barcamp.org/BarCampPhnomPenh</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It was last Saturday 07 of March, 3pm at T&#038;C World Paster (Street 51) we had our first meeting about our next Barcamp Phnom Penh.</p>
<p>As there was thread started in the Barcamp Phnom Penh list about the Next Barcamp, there&#8217;s quite some people are interested in joining to make the event happen while the rest i think might also ready to join. Our first meeting was running quite well, 3 hours talk &#8212; kinda long, among 4 people me, @chris, @darren, and @paul from ECCC, few others cant come as they&#8217;re busy. We&#8217;ve talked around things that was happened at previous Barcamp (So many thing actually, but we sum mostly) and what&#8217;s the next one should be. </p>
<p>We were actually trying to figure out the date of the Event, but cannot decide as we seem finding a bit difficult to find the right venue. Some have suggested to use the previous one, CJCC, but it just doesnt work well; we prefer a new place, and some possible on the list maybe:</p>
<p>1. Somewhere behind Phnom Penh Center<br />
2. ITC University<br />
3. RUPP</p>
<p>There are what we can think of. Maybe you can suggest us more the better one for this kind of techie event/gathering?</p>
<p>There was also many stuffs that we have done at the first one. Mostly it&#8217;s done, so it&#8217;s much more easier for this second one to be organized.</p>
<p>So when will the Next Barcamp be? no answer yet! we&#8217;ll figure out on our next meeting. So for those volunteers who interested in making this event happen much better/bigger, please come to join us @t our next meeting, same time same place <strong>Saturday T&#038;CWold Paster 3pm!</strong></p>
<p>I might miss some point :-/ no time to review, cos off now! Comment for your ideas.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been half year now since the fist ever Barcamp come to Phnom Penh on September 20, 2008. Over 300 tech enthusiasts has been together in one day unconference style event to share and learn from each other. I am sure most of you now know what is Barcamp, not a place for dance or drink/girls (sipek srey ngi oun bong) like many bars in the city that everyone have thought when they first have heard. Until the day our first Barcamp Phnom Penh happenned, we&#8217;re all have clearly known that it is a great place/time to learn and share all things about technologies to social fun. I remeber some have told me that, Barcamp was great, especially everything is FREE! heheh&#8230;</p>
<p>Some of you that might still not clear about what it is, probably you missed the event, you can learn more at the global barcamp site, barcamp.org. You will notice that Barcamp is happening everywhere around the world! And if you zoom a little bit to see in South East Asian countries, you&#8217;ll see

</ul>
<p>And there&#8217;s maybe many more will happen to every cities where Geeks live.</p>
<p>So, some of you might ask, <b>Will we have our next Barcamp Phnom Penh?</b> and i would say, the answer is Yes or No according to the community of you yourself, Barcampers. Because Barcamp is not own by anyone, it&#8217;s own by everyone in the community of tech enthusiasts, so if the community want the next one they&#8217;ll have it, if not, then the Barcamp will disappear. This mean that to make the barcamp happen, we need a lot of supports, a lot of volunteers, a lot of help from everyone. We have to share a lot of our busy time to participate, to join/share so that it could heppen.</p>
<p>But, what&#8217;s the benefits for you to join making it happen? It might be nothing, if you do nothing and someting if you do something. Because it&#8217;s a Free event, everything is free, the benefits is everywhere, you can get it as much as you want. However, it&#8217;s kinda volunteering work for the community if you like it you do, if you do not, you dont. (Ponte, mok luy pek men kirt te. Think to make it for fun <img src='http://khmerak.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
