I was surprised to see an article about a developing search engine in Korea called Rebi. It’s interesting because the Korean newspapers claim that Rebi’s concept is so groundbreaking that it plans to overtake Google’s share in the world market. What surprised me most was that the article completely misunderstands and bashes Google. It’s nothing […]

I interviewed my younger brother Gunhee Park about the common user experience with Korean search engines. Gunhee is a good candidate for this interview because a) he is part of the “net generation” or whatever the pundits like to call people who grew up with the internet and b) he’s been immersed heavily in both […]

It’s no wonder that Pepperjam is growing at its current rate. New employees and interns are springing out of thin air every other day and brand new desks and PC’s manage to snuggle their way into the current office layout. Pepperjam and Inc. 500 have become nearly synonymous to me, because everywhere that I look […]

Even though I’ve been interning at Pepperjam for a week now, my intern orientation is the following Monday. So I don’t know anything about the company policies except for the common sense basics, and I’m going to stay on the safe side and avoid disclosing any specific Pepperjam clients.

Like always, I am learning something new over at SEOmoz, like the fact that Rebecca is a Korean. Rebecca, in her “Roundup Thursday,” links to an article about Google heeding to the web censorship request of the South Korean government. Now Korean netizens must type in their names and social security numbers before being able […]

Pepperjam has been a totally awesome company to work for so far. I know… it’s only been 3 days since the start of my internship, so I can’t say too much yet. But you know for sure that I am loving it when I tell you that I would drop out of Penn State University […]

What an awesome feeling, strolling to Pepperjam on a beautiful, sunny Monday morning in Wilkes-Barre. To start work at my first desk job, doing what I love most: messing around with the internet.
Fresh company. New building. Young people. Beautiful women. What more can I ask for? And I can’t forget to mention the free energy […]

Some Chinese foreign exchange students at Wilkes University introduced me to an amazing P2P TV-watching program called PPStream. The name “PPStream” stands for peer-to-peer streaming video. Combine BitTorrent with Youtube, and then you have a fully functional multimedia pwnage software like PPStream.
It took me a while to understand how this program works, and I still […]

Many web designers out there are just as artistically retarded as I am, and I can say this with confidence because many websites look horrible solely based on the fact that their color theme is a bit off.
So the perfect solution is a website like EasyRGB, which accepts a color input and generates a range […]

I still do not have an internet connection at my new apartment in Wilkes-Barre. I am still pondering whether it is worth it to shell out the $40.00 per month for cable internet. And I proved myself correct for waiting by finding all this free internet in the area.
Right now, I am in the lobby […]
