Streamyx is slow again

TM’s streamyx service is getting bad again these past week. Looks like more kvetching about their lousy broadband service. With WIMAX looming to be launched, I wonder how’s their internet service in comparison with all the pretenders out there vying to get a piece of the internet service provider market. Read more »

Webdisk file storage system on webhosting provider

My current webhosting provider - Bluehost has a feature called webdisk file storage system. With its current feature of unlimited hosting space, it could actually be use as a cheap way of keeping your files online.

Streamyx is a lousy ISP. Very poor internet connection!

I don’t mean to be a kvetcher, but the local broadband internet service provider – Streamyx, provides very inconsistent internet service. Sure it may have first mover advantage over the other broadband service and sure as hell almost killed off Jaring. Its inconsistent internet connection leaves much to be desired. Read more »

Nuffnang vs Adsense

For blogger who wish to make a killing blogging, don’t get your hopes too high. Yes, you can get some pocket money out of it, but if you really want to live off the earnings from your blogs, sorry, tough luck. Am I being pessimistic? Not really. Yes, there are some bloggers who actually earn enough from blogging and survive from the income generated. In most majorities, the earnings are usually paltry in comparison. I’m not trying to let down your enthusiasm. By all means do it, but don’t put too much hope on it unless you know exactly what you are doing that will draw hoard of traffic and click-through falling short of trickeries and spamming.

File Synchronization and Online Storage with Backup Features

File Synchronization

I have been using the Briefcase folder provided by Windows for sometime. It was nothing to shout about as it was simple file synchronization tool which was available even way back when Windows 95 was first introduced. I didn’t really use it seriously till I needed to work on files on my portable USB flash device both at home and in the office. I wanted to have the same set of working files in my home PC, my office PC and my USB flash drive. Read more »

Making my own phpbb forum website

I’ve finally decided to start a forum bulletin board for my Cameron-Highland-Destination.com website. It’s been a long time coming. I may have the best content when compared against the other competing website of the same topic, only to lose out in the search engine ranking because of insufficient renewable content be it relevant or otherwise.

Of course I would have much preferred to build the phpbb bulletin board on the same domain itself, but unfortunately Site Build It!(SBI) does not offer the ability to host your own scripts. Don’t get me wrong. SBI is great with its many integrated tools like brainstorming tools to find the relevant SEO keywords related to your working knowledge of your website concept, Read more »

YouTube and making movies for your own website

Recently I have decided to give the YouTube video phenomena a try. After all, the other competing Cameron Highlands website has not done it and so made myself one up against their content. Besides, a lot of them have not been very original in their content and I have encountered some of them ripping my articles into their website despite the copyright warning against them. Some have tried to rewrite my articles but did so very badly, I don’t know whether to laugh at them for bungling the rewrite or fume at their audacity for plagiarizing my work without mentioning the original site where they got their source from.

Anyway, showing some movies about Cameron Highlands seems like a good idea, Read more »

Google website down?

Could such a thing be possible? I have not been able to access any Google website including my Gmail since Friday. I thought something was wrong with my Linksys LNE100TX LAN card, but I was very sure I installed the drivers correctly. So I tried other sites like Dogpile, Yahoo, MSN and the pages load up without a hitch. Read more »

Building up my homebiz website

Finally fixed my soho-home-business.com website. After a long while evaluating which CMS to use, I’ve decided to go with Joomla. It has its advantages and disadvantages. And one of them is the URL which is not so SEO friendly. But I have encountered several websites where the URL isn’t SEO friendly and worse, they use the gibberish version instead of SEF URL.
