Reasons why I am blogging
2006-12-02 16:13:18
Now it is 3rd month since I start blogging in August. I created account on blogger in July, but confused and wondered about blogging. I was looking around in blogosphere, visiting friends? site and asking myself ?How? and ?Why? are they doing this. May be, at that time I am lame and too shy to do so, expressing myself, writing something online, making it public. So, I was editing my template and just playing with sidebar gadgets. Well now, I truely thanks to my good friend Minn Myat Soe who encouraged me to start whatever on this very own weblog. After awhile, I started writing about something caught up in my head, some interests, and some stories. But, still no particular goal and, sometime ask myself why I am doing this. Importantly, I was confused about meaning of blogging and searching what I'm standing for. Is it a daily diary? Web journal? Whatever, it seem like a log to me and surely it is as word "blog" is derived from Web Log. So, I wrote a log whatever I want to remember...

I am not, are you? I found this web site adfreeblog.org eventually while I was finding some tips about advertising on blog. It is from keri smith and jeff pitcher. So, if you are also saying no to coporate advertising, go there, grab logo, save and upload image on own web storage, copy link code and paste in your web page. As they says, by using that icon on your website you are stating... That you are opposed to the use of corporate advertising on blogs. That you feel the use of corporate advertising on blogs devalues the medium. That you do not accept money in return for advertising space on my blog.

File Synchronization
2006-12-02 16:13:18
Recently, I am facing trouble with file copies. I was moving working files and folders around with a USB drive between home and office PCs. Lately, I got confuse which copy is latest and fequently miscopy and overwrite the updated with old version. So, I try to find out how to use File Sync hronization like featured on PDA. So, I found and tried Allway Sync, a directory synchronization tool. It is free but with limitations and that program is branded under several names. Some of the aliases are Good Sync and Syncromat. However, it is with a simple user interface, and can synchronize multiple jobs at once. The folders can be on the local drive, network machine or removable drive, and the differences are shown before the synchronization takes place. You also have the option to exclude selected files or changes the default sync direction. Some reviews said that program analyzes file differences based on true algorithm rather than system clock. But for now, I am using Windows XP's Brie...

I love DotA
2006-12-02 16:13:18
Now it is v6.38 with Four New Recipe Items and One New Hero. DotA stands for "Defense of the Ancients", it's a free mod for Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne. The purpose of the game is to defend your Ancient and try to destroy the opponents Ancient. The ancients are located deep in both bases, which are located at the top right and bottom left corners of the map. There are over 70 heroes that differ greatly in play style. Each of these heroes have been carefully designed so they are both balanced and unique. The map is updated frequently, sometimes to add new heroes, fix bugs or to make a balance update. The strategies possible with DotA are pretty much endless, choosing the wrong item and hero combination can mean the difference between a win and a loss for your team. The gameplay in DotA Allstars can be classified as relatively fast because as the game progresses any small mistake you make can be fatal to the overall team.

Free wireless broadband access in Singapore
2006-12-02 16:13:18
I heard this news from my friend, and quoted from Channel News Asia's article "Free wireless broadband access in Singapore public areas for 2 years" From January 2007, it will be rolling out wireless broadband Internet in all public spaces, called Wireless @SG, for free, for the first two years. Premium and higher access speeds will also be immediately available - but this will come at a fee. Singaporeans will be able to surf all over downtown, major town centres, recreational areas like East Coast Park, and maybe even at libraries and fast food outlets. Three operators - iCELL network, QMax Communications and SingTel - have been appointed to do this. They will carve out the island into three areas, and complete their deployment by end-September next year. Filed Under: News, Singapore Technorati: Free Wireless Access, Singapore

Flashbag: Inflatable flash drive
2006-09-18 06:23:00
Flashbag currently is a design concept of an USB flash drive by Russian designer Dima Komissarov, inviting producing and production companies to take participation in his project. The size of the device changes depending on the amount of data it holds. When the device is about to blow up you will see the familiar error message on your screen: "There is not enough free space". When swithched off the flashbag remains pumped up, so you can estimate with the naked eye how much more pics, books and music albums can be transferred into it.
