About The Blog

terra-novae-blogspot-logo
The logo's not that "flat". But meh, I want a change for once.
Founded since 2010, Terra Novae Blogspot has since become the author's way to continue expanding his knowledge in writing in English, his second language. Even though the author's primary language is Indonesian, the author has been fond of English ever since he was little. Combined with the author's passion with technology, the author keeps feeding Terra Novae with quality articles about technology such as reviews, tips and tricks, and notable news in general.

The Favicon.
Just the smaller version of the logo.
In case you haven't known already, the blog's tagline is "Be Inspired and Write". This reflects the author's earliest aspiration during the first days of the blog: write whatever and whenever you can. The aim of Terra-Novae Blog is to share the topics which are not commonly discussed in other tech news. One example: this article tells the readers how to turn off the "press home to wake" feature on their iOS10 devices, something which is searched by people, but often overlooked. Another article explains the solution on USB3 ports suffering connecting-disconnecting issues. Our main goal is to share tips like these, that are often overlooked by other tech sites, hoping that they can be useful to our readers.

About The Ads

google-adsense-logo
Google AdSense is our primary advertising partner.
As you read through the blog, you might notice that there are ad blocks shown both in the post and in the sidebar. Advertisements are used as a mean for the author to get some extra income. Believe it or not, the author himself is not a fan of advertisements. However, he understands that income has to be made, and by himself, deliberately turns off adblockers on legit sites with a reasonable amount of ads. The writer himself vows to never flood the blog with ads. Because the author knows that it does not only disturbs the user's experience, but also prevents users to coming back ever again.

BOLT! 4G Mobile Wi-Fi Review

Image
If you're a guy who always follows how technologies advance, then you must know 4G. Yes, the next generation of GSM network (and also CDMA) promises clearer voice quality and significantly faster data transfer. Though that sounds fantastic, the availability of such network is currently limited to a handful of countries. Heck, even the next generation 4G (like LTE-A and 5G) is currently being deployed and developed respectively as we speak. BOLT! is the first operator to offer 4G network in Indonesia One of the countries that is currently preparing for 4G network is Indonesia. No offense, but I'm kind of pessimistic, since the 3G networks here suck pretty bad. But it's not that all bad. While telco operators are testing 4G networks in various locations, there's already one new kid on the block offering the sweetness of 4G network. Well, Folks, let me introduce you to BOLT!, a new operator which focuses on delivering 4G data. Unfortunately, it's currently av

Which WinRAR Compression Do You Need? [GUIDE]

Okay, this is finally the time when I write a serious (and perhaps useful) post. The last time I wrote a post was about the first anniversary for Steve Jobs' passing. You can read it below this post. He was one of great people that mankind will miss. Anyway, the post before the anniversary was already weeks ago. Thanks to the busy routines and tons of assignments in my lecture, I almost abandoned by beloved blog. Today, though... marks the day for my return. Hit the break if you're interested about the meaning behind 'Store', 'Fast', 'Best', etc. :D

Logitech mk240 Mouse Combo Review

Image
What do you do when you have a Windows tablet that doesn't include a keyboard dock? No, you neither throw it into the trash can or merely play games with it. You'll buy a set of wireless mouse and keyboard and of course, a USB OTG cable and put them together. That way, you'll have yourself a complete 'hybrid' notebook, albeit cheap. Now, I'm pretty certain that you're thinking that there's no such set that has the right size for your tablet. It'd make you look very ridiculous, and you'll be ashamed to bring it with you, even to your favorite café. Fortunately, I have a solution that I recently found. The Logitech mk240 Keyboard + Mouse Combo. It's not the best solution, but at least it can save you some cash and a little bit of embarrassment. Logitech mk240 Mouse Combo Official Shot (White) With the width almost equal to a widescreen 10" tablet, this might be the closest-to-perfection keyboard to pair with yo
