IT vs security

Facebook: wall, Yesterday at 6:14pm
iMAP, FriendFeed, Yammer, survey, PC-Requests ...
Debica> Yammer?
Vipas> Yammer.com, company social networking: http://ff.im/7QroE
Arjin> P'Vipas, I've closed my account for long, since I receive email from security about confidential information related :)
Vipas> IMHO, it depends on how we use and manage. If we always looked for absolute security, we threw off cloud computing and never went to any information technology nowadays; then accepted staying suffered every morning for anti-malware updating or even allowed yield dropping to install scanning shield to guarantee best(?) protection.
Arjin> haha....like it :)

Would we walk on left or right?

เราควรเดินชิดข้างไหนบนทางเดินสาธารณะ?

Left
  1. ตามการเขียนหนังสือ -- ถ้ามีป้ายหรือประกาศข้างทาง จะอ่านได้สะดวก
  2. ตามระบบจราจร

Right
  1. เวลาอยู่บนทางเท้าข้างถนนจะเห็นรถสวนง่ายกว่า

Otherwise
  1. ควรใช้มือไหนจับราว(บันได)?

My own tonal marking for Thai names in English

  • ' (single quote) = ไม้เอก
  • ~ (tilde) = ไม้โท
  • ^ (caret) = ไม้ตรี
  • + (plus) = ไม้จัตวา
