It was an interesting morning today, when a friend told me that his brother received a job offer in a Forex trading company in Shah Alam. It was great news that he was able to get something after searching for opportunities for quite a while. However since my niece experienced this more than once, I [...]

On the road, one should not only think about oneself but about others. If the road is made only for 2 parallel vehicles, don’t make it three. But then again people don’t care.
For example: Who is more despicable, queue jumper or new queue maker?. I like this post so much I am borrowing his images.

I received an email with no text but contained just an image as attachment, and the whole image is a hyperlink to a phishing site:
Notice the casual language and a spelling mistake (find out where!), plus the Copyright year is 2009. The email was sent to someone without the Internet banking facility, and a dormant [...]

You can consider this as an honest and sincere opinion from me, as a Malaysian and a heavy Internet user. Maybe, if Rais reads this it will be much fun.
It’s all because of this news article: Malaysians advised against being immersed in Facebook, Twitter.
In twitter, the tag #yorais has been spreading like mad. The tweets [...]

My better half told me yesterday that we can now add our local bank accounts in PayPal. It was too good to be true so I decided to check. I went to check my PayPal emails first just in case I missed an announcement. However, I don’t see any. It’s kinda weird that when a [...]

Terrorist: Sorry, I missed
And the Malay translation for the last line was…
Maaf, saya [...]

I don’t think so. Last week, I was on leave for the whole week and did some light browsing at home. To avoid contamination with other PCs in my house, I conducted this test while purely tethering on my BlackBerry device. WIFI was turned off.
