The Star Two Rage section is more for the youth, twenty-something who likes to blog. Some of their featured Malaysian bloggers including the super blogger like Kenny Sia and several others. Ok, intriguing. So where do I stand as far as all this bloggers go?

Blogging may be all the rage these days especially in the Malaysian scene. Granted when I pop into blogging a few years back, blogging was still in its infancy (a few years is like millennia, considering the fast pace of online app development!). Back then I started a website about travel, it was a niche topic, doing pretty darn well I should say. But I have more things to say than just happy travelling. So I got myself a blog and started to write about technological stuffs which I like (ok, apart from travel which I also liked, and there are many more things which I like too.) (more…)

It happened to me once a long time ago, and my colleagues, and now my brother-in-law’s Microsoft Office Outlook also hang or having extremely slow startup. This is what happens when you don’t archive or backup your email correspondence and let your main outlook.pst file burgeon into one big fat file! (more…)

All this while I have been using Six Apart Vox for mobile blogging from my Palm Centro. The interface is good but I would very much prefer to blog directly to my Wordpress blog from my Palm Centro.

The current method to post from Palm Centro to a Wordpress blog would be by email. This method requires that you set up a secret email account where your Wordpress blog will check the mail server for any post that you have done lately. It didn’t seem to work for me when I tried it. Don’t know what when wrong. However I wasn’t so keen on this method so I didn’t bother to figure out how to fix it.

However I thought perhaps some bright programmer might have come up with something useful and sure enough I found two ways where you could post from your Palm Centro or Treo mobile phone to a Wordpress blog. (more…)

Cellspin test posting. this palm app can do with some improvement. Wish it has a draft save as well a list of post that was done. Vox pretty in that however cellspin is used not only to post into its own site but to do crossposting to othersites as well. (more…)

having my lunch here at sushi tei tropicana city. they still consider this whole week as chinese new year and thus no set lunch. I guess many people still on leave.

there’s lots of people here for lunch. sushi tei japanese restaurant is pretty popular as their portion are more than most japanese restaurants provide.

and of course they do taste good. I could also find my usual dish oyako don, steam chicken with egg on rice which many japanese restaurant seldom want to serve. I wonder why.

for today raw salmon was not available, how unfortunate. I was looking forward for some sashimi. I guess either it was very popular or their supply was limited due to chinese new year.

oh well. ordered my cha soba and waiting for it. while my wife and father-in-law have their teriyaki don. uh uh here comes my cha soba.

itada kimase!
ciao.

this u*blog may be dated and may not be the best way to blog from a palm mobile device to wordpress posting. the alternative is to use cellspin which is of course more advance than u*blog. however there is trade off, yes their app is free of charge but there is cost to your blog in which they will place a link in your post. small price to pay I suppose.

but if u prefer not to edit out the link from each of your moblie blog post then u*blog posting is the way to go.

this is another u*blog test post from my palm centro to my wordpress website personal blogs about website. u*blog is rather dated (24.4.2005) n there is no new updates since then. it is rather unstable n I couldn’t get the attachment to work. I don’t know what settings I messed it with and it kept crashing everytime I tried to post. in the end I deleted the u*blog prc program and reinstall it. (more…)

this is a u*blog test post. checking out alternate method of posting to my blog.

This is fun, BookCrossing. Who would have thought that leaving your books in out in the wild and let somebody else pick it up, read it, and hopefully they would leave a little note behind in your BookCrossing account. It started out way back in 2001 when Ron and his wife Kaori were admiring PhotoTag.org site where disposable cameras were let go in the wild and was tracked based on the serial number. So they came up with the idea of leaving books around either at specific BookCrossing designated areas or random points of place. (more…)
