A container for all my views with excerpts from technology, travel, films, books, kannada, friends and other interests. I am Thejesh GN, friends call me Thej.
When I am traveling, I avoid connecting to public wifi or guest wifi. So I am left with mobile Internet. I have 4G connections from all three providers (Airtel 4G, BSNL 4G, and Reliance Jio 4G). Even then, I don’t get enough bandwidth to download something large enough like the latest Ubuntu ISO during the day. The only option is download managers. So these are my choice.
I have my own pipeline for managing my ReadLater article river. It’s a simple setup using Mecury Feed Parser, CouchDB, and JSONFeed. Of course, it’s all brought together using serverless hot glue.
There was a small but dedicated set of users subscribed to this blog using FeedBurner feed. FeedBurner was working, but it’s virtually dead. So this week, I decided to move my feeds away from FeedBurner.
An RSS feed is a standardized format to get an update from a website or web service. There are a few feed formats (RSS, Atom, JSONFeed) of which RSS is the most popular one. I use RSS feed on daily basis to read blogs and as well to get updates from my own services. Here are the three FOSS Apps that I use.
I wanted a script that would convert the JSON to CSV in real-time, so I could use it at DataWrapper.
Over the years I have gathered a set of tools for effective documentation and communication. I use these tools to communicate on this blog, with my coworkers or anyone else that I want to share things with. Now that all of us are working remotely, they have become very important. I am listing my favorite ones here.
There are many ways to subscribe to this blog. Email is probably the best.
