another try for picasa

 Another approach is using the open DNS. 

Set the default and secondary DNS with 208.67.222.222  and 208.67.220.220.

Well, this time I managed to logon but the web page is still mess up. The browser does not want to display any photos. It's still useless. I think some parts of script didn't be download by my browser. 

But this really does some good for the www.google.com. Won't receive any access error for the www.google.com anymore.

My personal signature is  'Fuck GFW!'  from now.    

I just wish this won't last so long.   What can we do?  There is nothing we can change, anyway!

Wait ... in patient.....

Cannot access to picasa.google.com

This time it's the google picasa. Looks like it was since June 24th.  What's it for? 

The DNS returns a error IP address for the google picasa. Fuck GFW! 

It has been told add below IP addresses in  the hosts file can solve this problem.

203.208.39.104 picadaweb.google.com
203.208.39.104 lh1.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh2.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh3.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh4.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh5.ggpht.com
203.208.39.104 lh6.ggpht.com

Unfortunately, it does not work for me. I even can not access to that ip address via ping. 

BTW. I found for some people the GFW really does not effect too much to their life. They even can not sense it existing. Those people only play QQ web games.  

The eeepc supports official QQ client now

Just surprisingly found the official QQ client is listed in the ' software install / update'  program. It  really took quite a while for downloading files and configurating the environment. Maybe the most of time is used for the updating of  the glibc4. Anyway, the best thing is it works and what I did is just clicking one installation button. ;-)  Now, enjoy the official QQ client with the cute eeepc. But I still like pidgin.  :P

what is complexity

Fools ignore complexity. Pragmatists suffer it. Some can avoid it. Geniuses remove it.   --  Alan Perlis
