How to create a simple quiz website without web programming knowledge?


Sometimes, you probably need to make an online quiz. Whether it's for survey or for something online test, making one with programming knowledge is not easy. You probably need the knowledge of Javascript or the knowledge of Flash. Javascript seems to be used in simple type quiz and Flash tends to be used in quiz that need animation cause it's an animation program.

Both are still difficult to use. You need time to learn to use it. But there's still an easier way, that is: using "Quiz Maker" or sometimes people call "Quiz Generator". Such program is already made for that purpose. You just need to enter the questions and answers. No coding/programming skill is needed.

It helps you to create multiple choice quiz and then generate a quiz which is saved into HTML file. You can then use the file within your website as a survey site or if you are a teacher, you can use it to test your student as an online quiz. Click here to download.

Want to watch 2012 doomsday movie?

Someone asked me where could we watch 2012 doomsday movie. Well, if you have ever read my previous post about watching online streaming video, you won't ask this question.

You can visit Youtube and search for it. Of course you will find the movie, but maybe it's the trailer you get. If someone have uploaded it, you will get the whole movie, too. But the whole movie will also be separated into many parts (cause Youtube only allows 10 minutes duration of playing time). What about Tudou or Youku or 56?

Watching 2012 Doomsday at Tudou or Youku seems to be better because the movie will be played in full without being separated in several parts. Moreover, you can use Tudou video accellerator which make the video running faster and smoothly. So, now you know where to watch 2012 Doomsday, don't you?

My network computer couldn't surf the internet

Have you ever got furious just because of network troubleshooting? Well, this morning the network at my workplace didn't work. The internet connection from a client computer didn't work. Just that computer. And guess what? I tried looking at the setting of IP Addresses. Then testing the server with "ping". Scanning for viruses and checking firewall. All won't work.

Then I stopped a while and thought that perhaps I could change the network hub cause I still had another hub. But it still didn't work. I tried changing another network cable that connects the computer and the hub. And it still didn't work. At that time, there's only one computer connected to the hub. I also thought of using my laptop to test the hub, but I forgot to bring it.

After a while, I started thinking about the cable that connected directly to the hub. I plugged it directly to the computer and it still didn't work. I thought perhaps the cable was the problem. Then I cut off the connector and re-crimp the cable and the connector. Hmm... this time when plugged it into the network card, it worked.

Everything went wrong just because of a cable. I suddenly remembered that the word "BUG" in programming came from the history of  "printer error caused by a real BUG". At that time, many computer experts were asked to solve that computer problem. But all of the didn't pay notice on the tiny bug that hid inside the printer. Go searching about this if you are interested. I knew this from a C language programming language long ago.

Well, in troubleshooting a network problem, we should pay notice even on the simplest step.

Which video streaming website do you prefer?

Most of us want to watch online movies because it's very convenient. When I was young, I watch videos from video tapes. Then video tapes became outdated and replaced by VCDs, then DVDs. In this digital era, we have online videos, from movies till tutorial videos.


Most people know about Youtube, the most famous videos website, where people share videos. Some upload and some download the videos. After the birth of Youtube in this internet digital era, other websites of video streaming also appear. Some of them even use "tube" as the default name of video streaming websites, like "Teachertube".

How to test the speed of your internet connection?

Probably you have ever wondered how fast your internet connection. Of course by just using it and compared to another computer, you will know the speed, fast or slow. But rating the speed by feeling is not accurate. We still need to use number as the test result.

There's a site where we can test our internet connection speed. The test result will tell you:
  • the download time of mp3, video and movie
  • the upload time of e-mail attachment, photo gallery and video clip.
