My job—teaching, research, advising, students, colleagues, university, and everything else
Thanks to Google Voice and VoIP service with Gizmo Project, I’m officially without a landline phone service at my work. I’ll post more updates later, but for now, please forget my old number (920)465-2201, but use my new number (920)403-0326, which is my Google Voice number and will ring my analog telephone(s) in my office, [...]
This semester’s blogging starts with a post about Windows 7 Professional which is already available for download from our MSDN-AA site. Note that it’s neither a beta nor an RC (Release Candidate). The public release is still a few weeks away, so this is definitely a great perk for any COMP SCI course taker.
I installed [...]
Scary (at least to me) news delivered today through ACM TechNews:

I guess it’s at least partly true. For example, some people might prefer lecture recording to actual in-person lecture. And if lectures are recorded and available online, why not best ones, or suitable ones for individual students? I fear that most professions might be obsolete [...]
A dear friend of mine reminded me of this song this morning in his email. Looked up YouTube and there are plenty of this song’s recordings. I wanted to test how the video embedding works and also wanted visitors to enjoy this music for a while. It is “Moments in Love” by “The Art of [...]
What a great set of fall photos… I’d like to take some photos myself and upload some of them here. Stay tuned. In the meantime, enjoy these:

The previous title “Hosung’s Blog” seemed too generic, so I changed it to something strange: Goritaboon Sunsang? I’ll try to explain their meanings in detail later, but in short, “goritaboon” is a phonetic transcription, in English, of a Korean word, meaning (I choose among many) “stereotypical” or “old-fashioned”. “Sunsang” is a phonetic transacription of a [...]
Fourth Estate, the student-run newspaper of UWGB, reports an article about Bruce’s pass-away. There’s an online version at the following URL:
http://www.fourthestatenewspaper.com/news/2008/09/11/News/Students.Faculty.Mourn.Loss.Of.Instructor-3425405.shtml
I grabbed a copy of the newspaper. Didn’t know what to do with it (I couldn’t trash it away), so I posted the newspaper sheets on the Bruce’s office door. I hope it’s OK.
I also [...]
Bruce is gone. I’d like to remember him as an innovator, a life-lover, a family guy, a great teacher, mentor, colleague and friend. He long before inspired me to do things on our server with FOSS (Free Open Source Software). I was lazy and just deferring. Only after his pass-away, I try out what he [...]
I’ve never blogged. I tried here and there but only trial. Never got serious with blogging.
I was kind of forced to try out various PHP/MySQL stuff on our server. It was due to my unexpected and sudden takeover of our COMP SCI 370 Linux Systems Programming course, which was again due to a sad event [...]
