My Twitter usage has been down to practically zero since I started using Plurk. It’s a good thing because the way Plurk actually works is like a community, so I’m getting much more referrals via Plurk than I ever did via Twitter. I have to admit, though, that it’s a bad thing as well because ...

Last week I was looking through my feeds on Google Reader (an act that is becoming less and less frequent with work piling up), and saw one of del.icio.us’s “hotlist” saying “200 Nipples“. How could I resist clicking?Turns out it is a t-shirt selling website that runs batches of t-shirts in exactly 100. Hence they ...

I was at the Future Generation (aka student) track of ad:tech yesterday and I was really disappointed (almost disgusted) by the lack of professionalism in the crowd. About 140 students from the universities and polytechnics, and no one knows how to state their name and affiliation before asking a question?I actually asked a question and ...

Since I’m heading away to Canada for at least four months in August, I thought it’d be best to neaten up my room a little bit before I go. Remember the post awhile back about me having a hard time finding stuff? Well, I took everything that was loose (ie on the floor, on the ...
