Actually I don’t want to plug this contest. Because if more people knows about it, that means the chances of me winning will be lesser. But since the folks at Nokia and Text100 fed me well during their event and let me play with their flagship N97 a few weeks before the official launch, I [...]

TwtBizCard – Business card, the Twitter way
We really lost count on the number of ways people use Twitter. Couple of weeks ago, I wrote a blog entry on some of the ways that you can use twitter. But that was just the tip of the ice berg.
Recently, I saw this new application for twitter call TwtBizCard. Its a cool way [...]
Memorial Day
Interesting to find out that America is celebrating Memorial Day now. (Last Monday of May) Memorial Day is a day to commemorates US men and women who died while in the military service. Its nice that a country actually have a public holiday to honour those who lost their life while serving the country, although [...]
Our 3 local Telco’s Data Roaming charges are daylight robbery
I might be going Malaysia for 2 days soon. Knowing that I’ll die of internet withdrawal syndrome if I go without internet connection for too long, I went to check the Data Roaming charges to Malaysia. And I think I almost die with white foaming at mouth when I saw the charges by our 3 [...]
I did not ask my friend to be a social escort
Few days back, my friend email me a page from the Women’s Weekly (June 09, page 200) saying that I’m on the magazine. Wow, another 5 seconds of fame. But how the heck did I appear on Women’s Weekly? The article is about a girl who works as a social escort but kept the secret [...]

Nokia N97 Blogger preview
I was given the chance to touch/play/molest the new Nokia N97 for a short while. The N97 isn’t released in the market yet, and not many people outside Nokia have touched it before. We were one of the selected lucky few who get the first hand experience on it.
Let’s talk about the hardware first. I [...]

Will #followfriday on Twitter work?
It’s Friday again. And you know what will happen in Twitter on Friday? #followfriday on twitter. I don’t know where or when this #followfriday trend started. But honestly, I don’t find it useful to me at all.
Sorry, but whenever someone post a #followfriday tweet, all I see is a long list of twitter-ers whom the [...]
Even shopping malls are using Twitter
I was kinda curious when a userid @tampines1 followed me on twitter. At first I thought its just some fan of the new shopping mall Tampines 1. But as I was reading the past tweet, I start to suspect that the twitter account might be managed by the mall management or their PR company.
Its [...]
