Booze Queen and I bought the Sony Ericsson T707 just now. BQ got the pink one and I went for the blue one. The phone’s ok so far… the OS being a little slower than my N82 (which is surprising ‘cos I thought the lag on N82’s symbian OS would be worse) but that’s not […]
Can’t decide if I should get either of the above phones. I like them ‘cos they’re flip designs though specs wise, they’re considered a down a downgrade from my Nokia N82. The T707 looks more stylish than the W508 but while the former has 3G capabilities, it doesn’t have full support for videos calls as […]
New Feature – Windows Live Photo Gallery
Published April 22nd, 2009 in Geek Speak and Rasa Sayang. 0 CommentsNoticed this new feature on the latest Windows Live Writer 2009 but didn’t test it till now.

Well, this isn’t my first blog post but it certainly is my first “hello†from my office laptop. Yeap. After 2.5 years of lobbying by my boss, I finally got a laptop thanks to Loudhailer (helps when the co-CEO of the Singapore office is also the product head for trade credit and PRI. Heh). It’s […]
Not sure how many people still remember but there used to be this really cute e-mail software called Postpet where you can get your virtual pet to deliver your e-mails for you. If the recipient of your e-mail has the Postpet software too, he will actually see your pet arrive at this inbox (which looks […]
Sigh. Not sure what exactly is the matter but MSN doesn’t seem to be accepting web connections via the https port. Managed to get on MSN via imo.im this morning… but after I accidentally disconnected from it, I couldn’t log back on the whole day. https://meebo.com couldn’t work either… till now. Anyway, I wanted to […]
