Whew~!
I just upgraded my old (don’t even know what the old version was) Wordpress to the latest 2.5.1 because somebody hacked into my site and added bunch of hyper links in my latest post. And it was very clever that the hyperlinks are not shown in the browser since the position of the div is out of screen. But probably search engines will see the links and increase the pagerank or simliar action could have been done I guess.
Anyway, the migration was very easy except that I had to redefine the tag keywords from the old UTW (Ultimate Tag Warrior 3) to the Wordpress.
I guess my blog was attacked by this admin-ajax.php vulnerability. They say that a hacker can run the SQL query through admin-ajax.php.
Here are some of the blogs explaining the vulnerability.
So time is really fast and already a month has passed since I started using Track Ball at work.
So what do I think about trackball?
It’s great and I love it. It took me about a week to get used with this thumb track ball. I do not have any pain in the wrist and the shoulder since I do not move my wrist and arm at all. But sometimes, I still have a little of pain on the index finger knuckle at the end of day. I guess I usually click too much and fast.
However, the regular mouse is maybe a little bit better in terms of pointing accuracy.
I also tried Kensington Expert mouse, but I do not recommend it because its ball is bigger and you will need to use index or middle finger to control the ball. I experienced pain in the wrist again so I returned it right away. I did try to use my thumb to control it but it was too awkward and difficult. According to some website review, they loved the Expert mouse, but it wasn’t for me. It was way too much expensive ($90) than the logitech mouse anyway.
There are other options out there if you looking for ergonomic mouse. But I think thumb track ball is the best if you suffer both wrist and shoulder pain.
Since this spring, I started to feel minor pain in my right hand wrist and shoulder. It may be a beginning stage symtoms of Capal Tunnel Syndrom. (http://arthritis.about.com/od/carpal/ss/carpalstepby.htm)
I know that I use too many softwares at work so I have to move the mouse a lot. To prevent the worse development of the pain, I decided to use Trackball mouse.
In fact there are lots of orgonomic mouse , but they are much expensive than regular mouse! But, Logitech’s Trackball is reasonable $30 (including shipping from online store)
This is the first time that I am using Trackball. So it feels kinda awkward yet.
But I really hope that this one helps me to relieve the pain.
I still somehow look for a better alternative since it feels strange for now.
There was a bright clear rainbow after quick shower when I got my home. Taken with my cell phone. It was very beautiful.
