Sold A Twitter Account

Posted by Adi Wong On March - 13 - 2009

Yup, I actually sold a twitter account. I registered it earlier with some plans to use it to market my blog or forming a group tweet with it. This twitter account was an account with something got to do with making money and have about 100+ followers (which is not bad for a account that has less than 20 tweets). Since I did not have the time to utilize it, I sold it to Greg when he offered me $50 to buy that twitter account. It is not a large sum of money but it does addup to my monthly online income, so it is a good news.

Also, remember to follow me on my twitter.

Pownce No More

Posted by Adi Wong On December - 16 - 2008

Pownce is one of the pioneer in Microblogging together with Twitter and Jaiku. Unfortunately they are no longer in business. I am guessing because a lot of people actually uses twitter. I am one that is different because I have always prefer other interfaces such as Pownce and Jaiku, then comes Plurk. I somehow like plurk interface but I am not a big time microblogger.

It is sad to see one of my account going away because I had friends there. I guess it has to go because they are not profitting and I am also seeing more and more people registering an account and getting thousands of friends then link back to their spammy homepage.

If you go to Pownce, you will see this:-

Bye Bye Pownce!

If you are interested to help out a little on the latest development of Wordpress 2.7, take this official Wordpress survey to help them decide between three different navigation system.

It surely looks like the new wordpress navigation will be verticle and plugins like lighter menus are no longer useful.

This is a short survey, takes only like 3 minutes to complete it.

Wordpress have serve me quite a long time for my other website. I wrote a small blog post testimonial during the Unofficial Wordpress Day of July 1st. Anyhow, I truely like this piece of software and releasing their official logo would actually promotes their brand more.

They have include various format for print, web, phone and vector image to accomodate your designing needs. If you intend to print them, they also have penton code to make sure the color is right.

There is even Wordpress Wallpapers for your Desktop, iPhone and iPod.

Wireless Shah Alam

Posted by Adi Wong On August - 16 - 2008

It is now 9.05 am at SECC Mall in Shah Alam. I had to be here to drop my wife for some cooking lesson. The mall is closed but some shops are open. Fortunately, I am able to have wireless internet access because of this new Wireless Shah Alam project. This free Shah Alam Broadband will be available only until end of August, lucky me, after that some fee will be charged.

But the weird thing that I would ask is why Shah Alam, I would not have know about this if not because of the cooking class. I would actually choose places like Damansara, Kuala Lumpur or Sunway that have a lot of middle class and students in one small area. Each login is 30 minutes, therefore excessive ussage like games and downloads will not work.

More detail I digged up from TheStar here.
