			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I tried Adobe Contribute CS5 for writing blog and posted one entry <a title="http://www.nirjhar.com/2010/05/first-blog-post-with-adobe-contribute-cs5/" href="http://www.nirjhar.com/2010/05/first-blog-post-with-adobe-contribute-cs5/"><a title="http://bit.ly/a8SXuk" href="http://bit.ly/a8SXuk">http://bit.ly/a8SXuk</a></a> &lt;&lt;here. Found lots of problem and bugs. First of all it didn’t integrate my tags in WordPress. The insertion of object is really difficult here.</p>
<p>The best thing in Contribute is: After using it I just tuning up my Windows Live Writer with some use plug ins. Now I am quite OK with it. Thank you Microsoft for the greatest tool for blogging!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Capture.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="Capture" border="0" alt="Capture" src="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Capture_thumb.jpg" width="391" height="299" /></a></p>
<p>Now can anyone tell me why I’ll not use windows? Man can afford a mac. Because mac doesn’t have a similar tool like Live Writer.&#160;&#160; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/halo-wordpress.jpg"><img title="halo_wordpress" style="display:inline;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;border-width:0;" height="192" alt="halo_wordpress" src="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/halo-wordpress-thumb.jpg" width="246" align="left" border="0" /></a> This blog, <a href="http://www.nirjhar.com">www.nirjhar.com</a> is on WordPress Engine. From this you can imagine I am a great fan of WordPress though I am not a regular blogger but reader indeed! I am a regular reader of TechCrunch (<a href="http://www.techcrunch.com">www.techcrunch.com</a> actually my favorite site in this world <img src='http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> ) and it is also a blog. The Great blog.</p>
<p>Few days back I started observing my native blog platforms very closely. While watching Somewherein Blog (<a href="http://www.somewhereinblog.net">www.somewhereinblog.net</a>), Amar Blog (<a href="http://www.amarblog.com">www.amarblog.com</a>) and some individual bloggers (which are also in wordpress. Example Shahidul Alam’s blog <a href="http://shahidul.wordpress.com">http://shahidul.wordpress.com</a>) for my test cases and after while Nations’ largest newspaper The Daily Prothom Alo launched their own blogging site (<a href="http://www.prothom-aloblog.com">www.prothom-aloblog.com</a>). That was also a positive step for this country, Bangladesh. The largest print media is shacking hand with web based media. For me it is a milestone.</p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Origin of Blog (From Wikipedia)</strong></p>
<p>Before blogging became popular, digital communities took many forms, including <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet">Usenet</a>, commercial online services such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEnie">GEnie</a>, BiX and the early <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CompuServe">CompuServe</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_mailing_list">e-mail lists</a><sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-55">[56]</a></sup> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulletin_Board_System">Bulletin Board Systems</a> (BBS). In the 1990s, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum">Internet forum</a> software, such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebEx">WebEx</a>, created running conversations with &quot;threads.&quot; Threads are topical connections between messages on a metaphorical &quot;corkboard.&quot;</p>
<p>The modern blog evolved from the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_diary">online diary</a>, where people would keep a running account of their personal lives. Most such writers called themselves diarists, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journalist">journalists</a>, or journalers. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Hall">Justin Hall</a>, who began personal blogging in 1994 while a student at<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swarthmore_College">Swarthmore College</a>, is generally recognized as one of the earliest bloggers,<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-56">[57]</a></sup> as is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Pournelle">Jerry Pournelle</a>.<sup>[<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed">citation needed</a></i>]</sup> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Winer">Dave Winer&#8217;s</a> Scripting News is also credited with being one of the oldest and longest running weblogs.<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-57">[58]</a></sup><sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-58">[59]</a></sup> Another early blog was Wearable Wireless Webcam, an online shared diary of a person&#8217;s personal life combining text, video, and pictures transmitted live from a wearable computer and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EyeTap">EyeTap</a> device to a web site in 1994. This practice of semi-automated blogging with live video together with text was referred to as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sousveillance">sousveillance</a>, and such journals were also used as evidence in legal matters.</p>
<p>In 1993, Dr. Glen Barry started publishing the first political blog &#8212; the &quot;Forest Protection Blog&quot; (originally entitled &quot;Gaia&#8217;s Forest Conservation Archives&quot;) at <a href="http://forests.org/blog/">http://forests.org/blog/</a> &#8212; both to campaign for forest protection and as his Ph.D. project<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-59">[60]</a></sup>. This political blog initially used the gopher protocol, and has been on the web <a href="http://forests.org/archived_site/today/recent95.html">continuously since Jan. 1995</a>, making it the web&#8217;s first and longest continuously running political blog. The work has since evolved into the world&#8217;s <a href="http://www.ecoearth.info">largest environmental portals</a>.</p>
<p>Early blogs were simply manually updated components of common <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Website">Web sites</a>. However, the evolution of tools to facilitate the production and maintenance of Web articles posted in reverse chronological order made the publishing process feasible to a much larger, less technical, population. Ultimately, this resulted in the distinct class of online publishing that produces blogs we recognize today. For instance, the use of some sort of browser-based software is now a typical aspect of &quot;blogging&quot;. Blogs can be hosted by dedicated <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog_hosting_service">blog hosting services</a>, or they can be run using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog_software">blog software</a>, such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordPress">WordPress</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movable_Type">Movable Type</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blogger_(service)">Blogger</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiveJournal">LiveJournal</a>, or on regular <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_hosting_service">web hosting services</a>.</p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Blogging and Bangla:</strong></p>
<p>Apart from the blogging history a new era was brought in Bangladesh on 16th December, 2005 on the day of Nations “Victory Day”. On that day <a href="http://www.somewherein.net" target="_blank">somewherein net</a> launched the first Bangla (Bengali, bn) blogging platform with full support of Unicode (UTF-8) with phonetic Bangla keyboard input. Before that Bangla bloggers were using Blogger to write their Bangla blog with external unicode keyboard like Avro, Ekushey, Bijoy. But blogger wasn’t in Bangla. My favorite Developer <a href="http://hasin.wordpress.com" target="_blank">Hasin Hayder</a> was the developer of this blog. And again in 2008 hasin created the new Bangla blogging platform Prothom-aloblog. Congratulations Hasin.</p>
<p>And now, blogging in Bangla is really easy for the easy typing method and easy Unicdoe conversion tools. And creating local blogging community is a trend now in Bangladesh. Each day I am getting question from people “How can I start a blog platform?” and My answer is always <a href="http://www.wordpress.org" target="_blank">WordPress</a>. And then they asked what wordpress? Is it WP or WPMU (WordPress Multi User)? Then I have to answer them with care. </p>
<p><strong>Here is some facts.</strong> </p>

<p><strong>Moderated Media in Bangladesh:</strong></p>
<p>In Bangladesh every media is moderated. If you think of a printed media they’ve huge moderation due to the limitation of space. So few of lucky person can write their (The Editors and Journalists are lucky, they’ve some space their <img src='http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> ). When Bangla blogging started with the slogan “Badh Bhangar Awaj” as it implies the sound of breaking off the dam to unlock the free expression of motions, emotions, interactions in Bangla blogs the writers (bloggers) were happy. At least they’ve a place where they can write whatever they like. After while the blog community was polluted due to slang and personal attack. Then the blog company started to moderate the posts. Then again the moderated media is reborn.</p>
<p>For this reason many bloggers started their own personal blog. Because they believe blog is still their their Web Log.</p>

From this you can imagine I am a great fan of WordPress though I am not a regular blogger but reader indeed! I am a regular reader of TechCrunch (<a href="http://www.techcrunch.com">www.techcrunch.com</a> actually my favorite site in this world <img src='http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> ) and it is also a blog. The Great blog.</p>
<p>Few days back I started observing my native blog platforms very closely. While watching Somewherein Blog (<a href="http://www.somewhereinblog.net">www.somewhereinblog.net</a>), Amar Blog (<a href="http://www.amarblog.com">www.amarblog.com</a>) and some individual bloggers (which are also in wordpress. Example Shahidul Alam’s blog <a href="http://shahidul.wordpress.com">http://shahidul.wordpress.com</a>) for my test cases and after while Nations’ largest newspaper The Daily Prothom Alo launched their own blogging site (<a href="http://www.prothom-aloblog.com">www.prothom-aloblog.com</a>). That was also a positive step for this country, Bangladesh. The largest print media is shacking hand with web based media. For me it is a milestone.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Origin of Blog (From Wikipedia)</strong></p>
<p>Before blogging became popular, digital communities took many forms, including <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet">Usenet</a>, commercial online services such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GEnie">GEnie</a>, BiX and the early <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CompuServe">CompuServe</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_mailing_list">e-mail lists</a><sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-55">[56]</a></sup> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulletin_Board_System">Bulletin Board Systems</a> (BBS). In the 1990s, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum">Internet forum</a> software, such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebEx">WebEx</a>, created running conversations with &#8220;threads.&#8221; Threads are topical connections between messages on a metaphorical &#8220;corkboard.&#8221;</p>
<p>The modern blog evolved from the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_diary">online diary</a>, where people would keep a running account of their personal lives. Most such writers called themselves diarists, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journalist">journalists</a>, or journalers. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Hall">Justin Hall</a>, who began personal blogging in 1994 while a student at<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swarthmore_College">Swarthmore College</a>, is generally recognized as one of the earliest bloggers,<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-56">[57]</a></sup> as is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Pournelle">Jerry Pournelle</a>.<sup>[<em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed">citation needed</a></em>]</sup> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Winer">Dave Winer&#8217;s</a> Scripting News is also credited with being one of the oldest and longest running weblogs.<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-57">[58]</a></sup><sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-58">[59]</a></sup> Another early blog was Wearable Wireless Webcam, an online shared diary of a person&#8217;s personal life combining text, video, and pictures transmitted live from a wearable computer and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EyeTap">EyeTap</a> device to a web site in 1994. This practice of semi-automated blogging with live video together with text was referred to as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sousveillance">sousveillance</a>, and such journals were also used as evidence in legal matters.</p>
<p>In 1993, Dr. Glen Barry started publishing the first political blog &#8212; the &#8220;Forest Protection Blog&#8221; (originally entitled &#8220;Gaia&#8217;s Forest Conservation Archives&#8221;) at <a href="http://forests.org/blog/">http://forests.org/blog/</a> &#8212; both to campaign for forest protection and as his Ph.D. project<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/#cite_note-59">[60]</a></sup>. This political blog initially used the gopher protocol, and has been on the web <a href="http://forests.org/archived_site/today/recent95.html">continuously since Jan. 1995</a>, making it the web&#8217;s first and longest continuously running political blog. The work has since evolved into the world&#8217;s <a href="http://www.ecoearth.info">largest environmental portals</a>.</p>
<p>Early blogs were simply manually updated components of common <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Website">Web sites</a>. However, the evolution of tools to facilitate the production and maintenance of Web articles posted in reverse chronological order made the publishing process feasible to a much larger, less technical, population. Ultimately, this resulted in the distinct class of online publishing that produces blogs we recognize today. For instance, the use of some sort of browser-based software is now a typical aspect of &#8220;blogging&#8221;. Blogs can be hosted by dedicated <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog_hosting_service">blog hosting services</a>, or they can be run using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog_software">blog software</a>, such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordPress">WordPress</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movable_Type">Movable Type</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blogger_(service)">Blogger</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiveJournal">LiveJournal</a>, or on regular <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_hosting_service">web hosting services</a>.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Blogging and Bangla:</strong></p>
<p>Apart from the blogging history a new era was brought in Bangladesh on 16th December, 2005 on the day of Nations “Victory Day”. On that day <a href="http://www.somewherein.net" target="_blank">somewherein net</a> launched the first Bangla (Bengali, bn) blogging platform with full support of Unicode (UTF-8) with phonetic Bangla keyboard input. Before that Bangla bloggers were using Blogger to write their Bangla blog with external unicode keyboard like Avro, Ekushey, Bijoy. But blogger wasn’t in Bangla. My favorite Developer <a href="http://hasin.wordpress.com" target="_blank">Hasin Hayder</a> was the developer of this blog. And again in 2008 hasin created the new Bangla blogging platform Prothom-aloblog. Congratulations Hasin.</p>
<p>And now, blogging in Bangla is really easy for the easy typing method and easy Unicdoe conversion tools. And creating local blogging community is a trend now in Bangladesh. Each day I am getting question from people “How can I start a blog platform?” and My answer is always <a href="http://www.wordpress.org" target="_blank">WordPress</a>. And then they asked what wordpress? Is it WP or WPMU (WordPress Multi User)? Then I have to answer them with care.</p>
<p><strong>Here is some facts.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you know my laptop is broken. That was a Dell XPS M1330 with 2.6Hz Core 2 Duo Processor (6MB), 4GB RAM and nvidia 9400GS AGP. Unlikely the AGP is broken. As that was purchased from USA so I have to send it back to USA to claim my warranty. I have 3years of warranty with accidental care. After this disaster I had purchased a Low-End Desktop (celeron) and that was bad choice. So again I have to change it. I love to work with my photos and videos so a high-end computer was required. To meet my tech-hunger I have purchased this machine. Here is the summary:</p>
<p><font size="2">System Board: </font><a href="http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/motherboards/DG45ID/DG45ID-overview.htm" target="_blank"><font size="2">Intel® Desktop Board DG45ID</font></a></p>
<p><font size="2">Processor: Intel Core2 Quad Q6600: 2.4GHz with 8MB Cache Memory</font></p>
<p><font size="2">RAM: 8GB, Transend 800MHz FSB</font></p>
<p><font size="2">HDD: 320GB, Hitachi 7200RPM with 3Gbps data transfer.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Optical Drive: BenQ Super Wrier DVD3</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Monitor: BenQ T221W, 22inch WideScreen</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Case: Delux Black Macpro Tower, I have modified the power supply. I simply integrated a Server power system 700W in it with extra Two Fans.</font></p>
<p>Here goes the details:</p>
<p>As I live in Bangladesh, high-end accessories are not available here. The main problem here is a good casing with good power supply. So first I chose a case which armor is heavy and good looking then I simply changed the built-in power supply with a 700W Server power system. I can’t trust other power supplies. Then I integrate my system board. Here is the feature of my board:</p>

<h4>The G45 Express and GMA X4500 HD</h4>
<p>The G45 Express chipset is a step up from older Intel-based budget chipsets. It supports front-side bus speeds up to 1333 MHz, PCIe 2.0, DDR2 800 or DDR3 1066, and a whole mess of SATA ports through the ICH10 controller hub. The DG45ID in particular is a DDR2 motherboard, so that somewhat limits our memory bandwidth. It&#8217;s pretty small as MicroATX boards go.</p>
<p>There are six SATA ports and <i>no</i> IDE ports at all, so you&#8217;ll need to make sure you use a SATA optical drive. There is one PCIe x16 graphics slot, two x1 PCIe expansion slots, and a single PCI slot. Note that this motherboard does not support the really high-wattage Intel processors; the fastest supported chips are the quad-core Q9550 or the dual-core E8500.</p>
<p>Looking at the back plane, we see a whopping six USB ports, firewire, eSATA, five analog audio jacks, a TOSLINK optical audio output, and gigabit Ethernet. There are two digital video outputs—dual-link DVI and HDMI. 7.1 audio is supported through the IDT 92HD73E audio codec.</p>
<p>The GMA X4500 HD graphics in the G45 chipset is a relatively minor upgrade to the old GMA 3100/3500 in previous boards. It&#8217;s a very similar part, only with 10 unified shader processors instead of 8, running at a higher clock speed. Intel says it&#8217;s 2–3 times as fast as the GMA 3100 and as much as 70% faster than the GMA 3500 found on G35-based motherboards.</p>
<p>The X4500 HD is built on a 65nm manufacturing process, as opposed to the 90nm technology used to build the GMA 3xxx. The process shrink is what enabled the extra shader processors and higher clock speed.</p>
<p>Intel claims that the GMA X4500 HD supports DirectX 10, as the GMA 3500 did (with the right driver update). We tried it and it only &quot;sort of&quot; works. It&#8217;s far too slow to be usable even in the most forgiving of DX10 titles, and even with all the details turned way down. It&#8217;s also a little buggy—the Parallax Occlusion Map test in 3DMark Vantage crashes the system, and we saw little white dots all over the place when running <i>Crysis</i> in DX10 mode (at low settings).</p>
<p><a href="http://www.extremetech.com/"><img style="display: inline; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px" height="206" alt="Crysis Rendering Bug" src="http://common.ziffdavisinternet.com/util_get_image/21/0,1425,i=216281,00.jpg" width="328" align="left" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.extremetech.com/">click on image for full view</a></p>
<p>So while DX10 may be a &quot;bullet point&quot; for Intel here, you might as well ignore the fact that it exists. No DX10 title runs well enough to even enable DX10 mode, even if they all ran perfectly (which they don&#8217;t).</p>
</ul>
<ul>****************************************</ul>
<ul>The IEE-1394a port is an advantage for me. I can work with my HDCAM h<br />
ere directly. And also the eSATA port is fine. I love it.In Bangladesh all general users use the SATA controller as IDE bridge. They don’t know about the AHCI. The Intel Matrix Storage Device driver can solve this problem on OS Loading time. I did it.As I am using 8GB of RAM so 32bit OS can’t use it all so I am using Windows Vista Ultimate 64Bit.I am enjoying the built-in sound card. It is fantastic. Here is a screen shot!</ul>
<p><a href="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/clip-image001.png"><img title="clip_image001" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="402" alt="clip_image001" src="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/clip-image001-thumb.png" width="603" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Screen clipping taken: 10/17/2008, 2:14 PM</p>
<p>I am still not connected any Extra AGP or SoundCard. I am more than happy with the Built-In things.</p>
<p>And the view, My 22inch Wide Screen LCD Monitor. I can see two A4 size paper at same time on it. And I am really enjoying Adobe Photoshop and Camera RAW 4.5 with it. I calibrated it. Thanks goes to intel Gamma.</p>
<p>But there is some problem, intel should add more technical description in the bios setup area. So that user can customize the system comfortably.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/image.png"><img title="image" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="452" alt="image" src="http://www.nirjhar.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/image-thumb.png" width="605" border="0" /></a> </p>
<p>Can anyone suggest me how can I build a machine which rating will be 7+? I am still curious on that. Dear Microsoft can you please tell me what is the standard of a 10rated machine? Please don’t suggest I have to purchase a Latest Super Computer.</p>
