Noticed that quite a number of my friends are involved in organizing quite a number of interesting events this coming month. If you’re into entrepreneurship and technology, you should consider attending some of these. Friday, 4th April 2008: Entrepreneurship in Asia & EuropeEurope has a long history in developing advance technologies, particularly in green energy ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Hey guys! Sorry I haven’t been updating much. Before I know it, its been almost a whole month since I wrote anything. Yup, I’ve been busy with school work, particularly with my assignments for this module I’m taking at NUS called CS3216: Software Development on Evolving Platforms. To spare you the jargon, its a module ...
Few days ago I was having a casual conversation with a friend over breakfast in the Hall canteen. It was like any other conversation friends would usually have, discussing various issues, celebrity gossips like the sad lost of Heath Ledger, amusing incidences that happened around hall and university, etc. Then we came to the part where my friend mentioned his long-time dream …
Hey guys! Sorry for not writing for a super duper looong time. I was away on holiday in Shanghai and didn't have much time to blog on the trip. I'll be writing about my Shanghai trip soon once I get my school stuff settled and my 700+ pictures sorted out(hopefully I get down to doing it asap, I procrastinate too much). All in all, Shanghai was a REALLY great place. Its a …
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 ...
Hey Ping'sters!There is a clan war coming up this week but the Ping Pirates will not be participating because there is also a *SPECIAL* event happening this weekend which is an increase in resource discovery. Hence, we believe that time would be better spent this week exploring for those RARE resources which we can use to buy those high-leveled equipment we've been saving up …
Most of us have thought about how the grass is always greener on the other side, making comparisons between various aspects of foreign countries and our own; living conditions, career prospects, government administration, education opportunities and etc. Remember the guy who created the controversial movie Farenheit 9/11? A few months ago Michael Moore released his ...
Highlighting an interesting event by a friend. ^_^Pictures are a snapshot of moments in our lives, memories which we would like engraved in the stones of our heads as long as we live, to remind us of the few important words among the 1,000 a picture is worth. However, more often than not we fail ...

Recently, the geniuses at Sugano Laboratory of Waseda University unveiled their latest creation, Twendy One, a household robot that can understand instructions and help with household chores. What household chores? Almost anything like getting a bottle from the fridge, using thongs to lift bread from toaster onto plate and carrying a tray of food from ...
This has got to be the best and most realistic videogame review I've ever seen. Usually when you have a videogame review the non-gamers will go "Uh.. o_O??". This one however appeals to both non-gamers and gamers. The guys at Up All Night really did a good job with this review, definitely looking forward to their future game reviews. Here below is a video review of the …
Got a request to check out the new “Nokia NSeries 14 Days” campaign. Its this new initiative where Nokia will show viewers some out-of-box things they can do with the Nokia N95, with a new trick introduced every 14 days. Their first trick is already online showing how you can create your own “Fast & ...
Was browsing YouTube videos today (come on, I need to chill out in between my exams k! :P).. And came across this treasure from Korea! Its an MV of Pachabel Canon in D with a mix of some traditional Korean instrument, beat boxing and DJ disc spinning. I love it everytime they fuse modern West with traditional Zen. Wish I knew who made the video, according to the comments 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! ^_~
It is really interesting everytime you have a very traditional, old school organization filled with middle-aged executives trying to be “hip” and cool to show they have caught up with the times. The equation somehow never fails to go wrong.One such organization which attempted this recently is the Media Development Authority (MDA) of Singapore. To ...
