I was checking out Rogers’ data plan for my phone yesterday.
With a data plan, 1kb of data costs $5/5000 kb = $0.001/kb
Without a data plan, 1kb of data costs $0.05/kb
Um.. you mean Rogers is charging 50 times more for each kb if I don’t subscribe to their data plan?
To me, it feels like I am being penalized for accessing data without a data plan.
I did some quick and dirty coding to allow readers on this blog to select their language preferences in here. Basically, when you visit the site, you can select between displaying Chinese entries, English entries, or both Chinese and English entries. This is done by a simple cookie and by categorizing all entries into two categories, obviously, named “Chinese” and “English”.
On top of that, I also created two (category) RSS feeds to allow readers to subscribe to entries in different languages.
