Shopping spree in raub

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

What to do in raub, pahang? Well for one, the missus end up on a shopping spree for everyday things saying that it is cheaper here. Of course the main thing was a chance to travel away from KL and visit her aunt who is residing in Raub. And for small town (well it is not that small in some ways as it was rather spead out) the usual thing is eat n shop. Not much other activites unless u plan for eco adventure. With so many seniors around, social mingling with the relatives n catch up with recent happenings is the norm.
Hmm… Hakka dialect seems to be the nrom here too.

BookCrossing

Friday, January 29th, 2010

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…)

Remove and Get Rid of Feedproxy in Feedburner

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I noticed that some of my RSS feeds from Feedburner have the feedproxy.google.com domain and a long squiggly URL. I would like to remove and get rid of the feedproxy in my feedburner feeds and would much prefer to have the URL with my own domain and the webpage URL link. I also noticed that not all my RSS from my various blogs has this issue. So very likely there was some sort of setting at fault. (more…)

Exabytes Webhosting HELM control panel alias bug

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

When choosing a webhosting solution like Exabytes, IPserveron, Bluehost or Bravenet, when you build your website, the control panel of the webhost that you choose will determine the usability. Of course the simpler your website that you make, there will be less impact if the control panel is buggy. However if you need to do something more you might find yourself struggling and perhaps hobbled by what buggy control panel that your domain is hosted in. (more…)

traffic jam at the rothman circle

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Them the breaks. I rushed out the office in the nick of time to get to my car n avoided getting wet. But the rain now brought a new set of problem. Gridlock! Traffic circles were never meant for rush hour n since no one wants to give way there is no chance the vehicles will be able to move. So that's that! Sitting in the car until some kind soul clears the way. I'm pretty much stuck in the traffic!

Dell Inspiron Mini 10v Netbook Review

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

Recently I just got the Dell Inspiron Mini 10v and some of my friends asked how it was. I have been thinking about getting a netbook for awhile. Sure I got my laptop, the Dell Inspiron 1501 about 2-1/2 years ago. With its big 15.4″ screen it was quite a dead weight to carry around. Although I wanted portability, I also wanted a generous work space on the screen. And of course usually laptops that are bigger are generally cheaper despite the fact that LCD screen space is more. There was a time that bigger screen was more expensive; however in order to cramp more hardware component into smaller spaces meant that notebooks would be more expensive than laptops. (more…)
