Bored of the usual white and light blue layout of Gmail? The one that is starting to look a bit too simple and plain? The guys at Global Designs Inc share our hunger for something spicier and came up with a Gmail Redesigned, a simple Firefox CSS Plug-In that, well makes your Gmail a LOT ...
A quick introductionLast night I was invited to attend the HP TouchSmart PC Blogger’s Event at the mod and cozy Brotzeit Bar in VivoCity. It was a really great event for me as apart from pressing, poking and hacking the gadget till my heart’s content I had a lot of fun putting faces bloggers whom ...
Just when I was starting to get used to the Command-Line Interface of Linux, my prof sent me a link to this pretty cool “2D Star Wars Animation”. Seriously, I think 2D is an understatement as it is made up PURELY from text characters in the command line. I don’t want to imagine how much ...
Last week E27 and the Singapore PHP User Group organized the 2nd Facebook Developer’s Garage in Singapore. As a fresh Facebook developer, I was ecstatic when my teams and I were invited to present 2 of our applications there: AntRush and Prosperity Garden. I have not written about AntRush before because the application is still ...

Exams have just come to an end for me today! (Woohoo! FINALLY!). It has definitely been an interesting semester with me being in the pioneer group of 2 subjects, one of which is the famous Facebook module. Reflecting on all that’s happened in the past 5 months, I thought some of you might be interested ...

Friday, 4th April 2008: Entrepreneurship in Asia & EuropeEurope has a long history in developing advance technologies, particularly in green energy ...
Honestly having owned a Dopod 818 Pro for 2 years, there isn’t that many ways you get to woo your friends with your PDA other than everyone going “COOL phone”(from its physical appearance) or “Wow! You have Windows on your phone”. Sadly, it all ends there. It isn’t enough to convince them that owning a ...
I’ve been back in Malaysia for about 3 days and after catching up with all the good food and shopping, I decided to spend some time at home writing. I was wondering what would be interesting, went through my drafts and saw this! I’ve been wanting to blog about this since last year but never ...
Everytime a documentary runs on National Geographic saying “Humans evolved from apes”, I switch the channel as it is usually a repetition of the same facts proposed over and over by many researchers. E.g: Pictures of hunched humans, bone structure comparisons and capability comparisons. Today however, Wayne told me about this TED video which proposes ...
My friend Chris sent me a really cute video today from Neatorama of a dog using a machine (similar to the Tennis ball shooter) to play fetch on its own! Check it out. Judging from the “dog-o-meter” and height of the machine, the owner might have modified it specially for the dog’s use. Creative and ...
Woohoo! Ain't I glad that there's no exam tomorrow. To those of you who are having exams, take a break! Here's the link. Enjoy! ^_~
After attending half a week of lectures, I’m beginning to have reservations about some modules I’ll be studying this semester. Not because of the students, not because of the syllabus but because of the lecturers. Don’t get me wrong, the lecturers are very familiar with the materials they’ll be imparting to the students. They ...

It was held about 3 days before the official launch in Singapore at the usual geek hangout (Geek Terminal). Good Point #1: Long battery lifeWhen I arrived at the event, the ...
After BumpTop’s appearance at TED with the 3D Desktop where you can bump things around, I became skeptical of applications that attempt to turn traditionally 2D interfaces 3D with fancy animations, special effects and features at the expense of usability. When I came across SpaceTime on Mixx, I was adverse to trying it out but ...
Hey guys! Sorry for not writing for so long. I’ve been traveling quite frequently during the holidays and couldn’t find the time to write until now. Where did I go? Well that’s a story I shall keep for my other blog (if I ever get down to writing about my travels). In the meantime! Here’s ...
