53th Malaysia independence day - 31 August 2010

31 August 2010, Tuesday.

This is the 53th Malaysia Independence Day. I was 29th year old, still a virgin, still single at the day celebrating this big day in our country.

It is a public holiday for us here in malaysia. Kota Kinabalu city will roaming with tourists, local folks and younsters looking for some entertainment while a large crowd building up to celebrate the Independence Day.

I will be at Padang Merdeka in the morning to see Merdeka events held there. I've planned to watch 2 movies today. All alone.

God, hear my pray. Please, send me a caring husband.

USB 3.0 Spice Up Fast Data Storage And Make User PC Market Turns Hot

USB3.0 will arrive soon here in Malaysia and we think it will spice up user PC market, as an additional advantage to USB2.0. The invention of USB 3.0 makes small storage such as thumb drive or flash drive become faster, saves a lot of time and energy. What makes USB 3.0 so special is the speed factor, it delivers larger bandwidth - up to 5 Gbits/s full duplex (compared to 480 Mbits/s simplex for USB 2.0) according to Embedded.com. Transferring 1GB movie file from a host, say a laptop, into a USB3.0 flash drive in 3.3 is not impossible anymore, compared to just 33 seconds using USB2.0. Maybe in the coming months we will see many thumb drives, USB broadband modems and flash drives comes with USB3.0 technology, only price matters.

Sony Netbook - Sony Vaio W-Series

Sony announced their own netbook, the VAIO W-series, runs on Intel Atom processor N280, 1GB basic RAM, installed with Windows XP Home, in our opinion, targeted for average computer user consists of students, workers, journalist with not-so-heavy job task.

The netbook available in 3 attractive colors - white, pink and brown. Sony Vaio W-series netbook has 16:9 high resolution, 10.1 inch display screen. The netbook carrying case is also designed to be matched with color of the netbook, appealing to be stylish and elegant layout anywhere, anytime for you.

The source says this netbook was optimized for internet browsing, instant messaging and quick skimming on anything new in the internet. Maybe can be purchased from local Malaysian computer store around August or September in price range of RM1300-RM2500.

But, if you have small budget and limited spending, we suggest you to purchase Acer Aspire One or Hp Mini, which price range is between RM1100-RM1500. Those two give you the same capacity in Sony Vaio W-series, in different in style.

Open New Gmail And Keep It In HTML View For Faster Loading

If you have a slow internet connection and you have to forget about experiencing Gmail in is full feature, we sugggest you to choose HTML view instead. Using HTML view as a replacement of the standard view will only gives you the basic functions - inbox, compose, starred, drafts, sent mail and spam filter but no Google Talk chat box. You will miss the colour label and you have to attain a broadbanbd internet connection to use Gmail customization. One problem in HTML view, you can delete all emails in the inbox folder by clicking Delete button to erase them all at once. Here, you have to do that manually. Pretty painful, takes more time.

My Guest Blogger From Malaysia

Now i have a new guest blogger from Malaysia. He is so enthusiastic when talking about laptops, softwares, electronic gadgets, Google stuff (even he dreams to be come one of the Googlers), anti virus softwares, web applications, new invention and web technologies. Thank god i've found him!

Honestly, i saw his name from a discussion forum. The first thing i realized is, he gave me his real picture, not a faked one. That a sign he is truly honest guy. After some private message exchanging, i feel like i knew him for a couple a years, eventhough i've just knew his real name in two minutes.

Finally, talk directly in Yahoo Messenger and meet eye to eye in front of a web cam. He is cute, skinny, but his talent attracts me. He maintains a blog in Malaysian language, so i believe he had strong basic blogging skills.

From now on he is my love partner in updating you with the latest stories. We love the web and we dont care about the money. Well..that's true. I started this blog because my passion is about computers and software.

Passion is the important matter, most of all. He is swimmer too.

I Can Publish 40 Posts In 1 Day Thanks To Google Blogger

I was so passionate when talking about the internet, software, laptops, email, Google products and share my story about how we can make the most of it.

Honestly said, updating this blog every 3 hours was still not enough for me. By the end of the day, I've found myself unsatisfied with the number of posts i can write, eventough I can wrote 30-40 articles in a day and i feel i can put up blog updates 40 times in 1 day! I love doing that. Write something is my passion!

The most interesting subject i love to talk about is Google, its products and its services. I love explaining the basic and show them the advance tricks. Google really understands human nature.

We, me and you like to receive something free, useful and helpful. That is the Google understands well. So, Google aggressively gives out free stuff and buy useful stuff that internet already have, such as Blogger Blogs, YouTube or maybe next, the Twitter.

Thanks to Google Blogger (this Blogspotblogging platform i'm writing on), you guys give me something that i shine my passion on to.

Thanks Google!

Najib Blog

Najib blog (called as blognajib) is a blog written by fan of Najib Razak. He compiles latest blog entries from Najib Razak blog and post it on Najib blog.

The blogger says this in his about page, "This blog is only a compilation of selected news about Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and does not represent him".

Najib blog also compiles Najib Tun Razak automated short news feed from Malaysian online news, such as Malaysia Kini, Berita Harian Online, Bernama, Nst online, powered by Google News and Google Reader shared feed.

He named Najib image in about page as "Najib babi". Proof of "not so good" Malaysian.

Berita Harian Online

Berita Harian is a leading Malaysian newpaper in Malay language, alongside News Straits Times. Berita Harian has more than 2 million copies of daily circulation.

If you want to access latest Berita Harian news on the internet without buying the "bulky-but-small" newspaper, go to Berita Harian Online. This site is a online version of Berita Harian newspaper, packed only with half of the content of the printed newspaper for the day. Saves your time, effort and money.

However, if you want quick grab of the latest news in Berita Harian, stick to Berita Harian online. Its main highlight was updated regularly, mostly every hour depends on the situation.

The first things I wanna comment Berita Harian Online is their domain name. Why not choose another easy to remember name? Such as BeritaHarian.com? They website name is too long, not so cool for us to remember. What reason they choose Bharian.com.my as the domain name?

TV3.com.my Buletin Utama

Buletin Utama is a news bulletion programme on TV3, popular free tv channel in Malaysia.

I dont know why, but my friends from Malaysia told me Buletin Utama is the most watched news program during night premiere, especially during 8-9pm.

If compared to another new program in the same time line, Bulletin Utama from TV3 was being chosen as the top favorite, beating other news program such as Warta Perdana, Bernama Tv and Astro Awani.

To access Buletin Utama online content in TV3.com.my internet portal, you need to sign up as member of the site first. Member registration is open for free.

Najib Razak Blog Is Not Najib Blogspot

Najib Razak blog is not on Blogspot. But, Najib Razak sets up his own website, a personal portal that also contains his blog entries. Many people tought that Najib Razak set his blog using Blogspot. Thats a funny assumption, especially when you're not checking it first.

Najib Razak blog page is full with links to his latest blog updates. You can read his latest word on the main page of Najib Razak website. To read his full article, you need to click the "read more link". I think it is unappropriate for read more link to be pasted into a short article.

In my opinion, read more link should be put into a long article, in 7-15 paragraph. When a visitor click on read more link, he should found longer paragraph, not 1-2 paragraph only. It a time waste!

Watch Malaysia office scandal on YouTube.

Najib Razak Website

Najib Razak website is 1Malaysia.com.my. The word "1Malaysia" becomes his philosophy and leadership brand as the 7th Prime Minister of Malaysia.

Najib Razak becomes the offical 7th Prime Minister of Malaysia On April 3rd 2009 after being personally selected by Tun Abdullah Haji Ahmad Badawi, the 6th Prime Minister.

Najib Razak website comes with many feature, enables you catch him on his latest updates, activities, news, Flickr images, his videos on YouTube and his speeches.

I think Barack Obama should follow example of Najib Razak website, where as a well known leader of a nation, you should use internet technology to enhance communication with your people, people you lead and people that you protect.

Design of Najib Razak website is catchy and soft to human eyes, work desk look alike. You can see car key with its key chain in the 1Malaysia blue-yellow logo, CD-ROM, his notebook (or also his journal), a pool for his website visitor and his passport sized photograph.

You can learn about 1Malaysia idea, Najib Razak biography, read his quotes and read the mini budget summary.
