When using social websites like Facebook, Twitter, etc, usually we try not to divulge too much information. After all there are unscrupulous shenanigans out to phish information that you publicly display. Identity theft is pretty dangerous for you. You may try to protect yourself by limiting the number of information available, but now researchers have come out a way to infer about information that you have left out by using an algorithm to search your friends profile and infer information that you have left out.

So you thought that by leaving information out would afford you some privacy and perhaps only let people know about 20% about you, but with this technique they can infer information up to 80% accuracy about your other attributes. (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…)

Durian Malaysia, the king of fruits. Everybody loves them and many are repulsed by the offensive smell. But once they overcome the strong aroma and get the courage to try it, mmm…, that’s it, they are hooked!

The various variety of Durians in Malaysia

There are so many varieties of durian in Malaysia. So many that I’m not sure which is which. Sometimes the names are in Chinese, sometimes in Malay, sometimes in code, and sometimes it is from the place that it was grown plus the grade that grow there. It is like trying to decipher French connoisseur wines. It is as though a particular durian variety grown in a specific region will yield a different subtlety to it, just like wines. (more…)
