  • The last day of Google PageSpeed Service

    The last day of Google PageSpeed Service

    Screen Shot 2015-07-13 at 11.21.21 PM
    Today is the last day of the Google hosted PageSpeed service. So if you’re using pagespeed.googlehosted.com as your CNAME, you better change it today, or else, your site won’t load anymore. It has been 4.5 years since Google PageSpeed service started, and it’s been an awesome ride! My site’s page load speed actually increased after using their hosted page speed service. But now, it’s time to move on. You can use Cloudflare, just like what I’m using right now, or have your own self hosted pagespeed service.

  • Add a domain or domain alias is no longer available for free G Apps accounts

    Yep, you’ve read it right. Add a domain or domain alias is no longer available for free G Apps accounts starting last year I think. Suddenly I just can’t add any more additional domains to my other Google Apps account. I think they found it to be a loop hole or something. Because when you have an old Google Apps account with 2000+ users, you can add additional domain without limit. So you don’t need to buy a Google Apps for Business account in order to enjoy all the features of Google Apps.

    A brand new Singlehop is coming soon!

    singlehop
    Singlehop.com is currently upgrading their website. Right now, everything seems to be inaccessible, including their support page, LEAP3.singlehop.com. In their maintenance page, they said that you can still file a ticket and login directly to https://leap3.singlehop.com, but it’s not working. If you’re in a hurry you can actually e-mail the [email protected]. It’s the only way to reach them right now, as support e-mail is not available in Singlehop. You can only reach support through LEAP, which is not available as of the moment.

  • OSX Yosemite WiFi doesn’t connect automatically

    OSX Yosemite WiFi doesn’t connect automatically

    If you encountered this problem wherein after upgrading from Mavericks (or any other OSX prior to Yosemite) to Yosemite, you can’t connect to your home WiFi automatically. Every time you turn on your laptop or wake it up from sleep, then you need to reconnect to your router again. The issue is that Yosemite doesn’t allow access to your router by default. After upgrading, it somewhat changed the preferences inside your Keychain Access. In order to make your Mac connect to the wifi automatically again, just follow these few easy steps.

    First, go to your Keychain Access. If you don’t know where it is, just press CMD + Space Bar, then search for Keychain Access, just like this:
