I grow up in a city in southern China. Before I came to United States, I spent seven years in Beijing and really enjoyed my life there. Now I miss my friends in Beijing very much (well, some of them are no longer in Beijing now).

What do I do for fun?

• • I play two hours basketball every Sunday morning in the park close to my place, with lots of friends.

  • My blog about programming and Linux: I have a few posts there and will make more when I have time, and passion of course.

  • Tai Chi: I am practicing Tai Chi Ch'uan short form and long form, Yang style. The Tai Chi family tree traces my lineage back to Master Sim Pooh Ho, Wu Tu Nan, and Wu Jian Quan.

  • Bay Area Hiker: I started to become a fan of hiking since the spring of 2009. So far we have accomplished 6 trails in bay area.

  • Web comic strips: Piled Higher and Deeper, Spiked Math, and Dilbert are my favorite.

  • Funny apps:

    • • Think about a real or fictional character, Akintor will guess who it is via 20 yes or no questions.

      • SCIgen: An automatic computer science paper generator, just in case that you need one (or more) to graduate.

      • My homepage traffic analyzer: Maybe it's not a fun link to you but I use it to see where you are from, :)

      • Virus free exes: A Christmas Tree, A poor guy working with computers

Sites developed/maintained by my friends and me

• • UC Davis Chinese Students and Scholars Fellowship: I served as its executive committee member and web site administrator from 2006 to 2008.

  • Official FTP site of Tsinghua Univ.: I was one of its administrators.

  • CANS(Chinese-American Networking Symposium): I was one of its developers.

  • APNG(Asia Pacific Networking Group): I was its mailing list administrator.

  • NGN LAB: My lab in Tsinghua Univ.

  • The Bulletin Board System of Dept. EE, Tsinghua Univ: I identified some bugs and contributed several lines of source code.

  • Openconf Chinese version: A conference management system I localized for the 2005 Chinese search engine and web mining conference.
