I had to transfer 2 WordPress blogs to another hosting provider last night, as the free one is going to expire today. It should be as easy as:

Transfer the database
Change DNS servers in registry to the new DNS servers

If you’re one of the SysAdmins working for Maxis, and you celebrated the recent System Administrator’s Appreciation day, you should really think about your future. SysAdmins are supposed to make people life’s easier, not the other way round.
Maxis has been implementing transparent proxy for some time now, I think to save on bandwidth usage as [...]

I was instructed by my financial advisor to apply for the Al-Aiman credit card because of the low cash advance fee, to execute in a financial program, so I did and I got approved.
However I received 2 cards (both Visa and MasterCard) although I only applied for a Visa card. Something fishy is going on, [...]

I had to go through quite a significant number of resumes the other day, and here are some tips for fresh graduates out there.

Technology is great, indeed but human interaction is also important.
We are sushi lovers, yes. Our favorite sushi outlet in Malaysia is Sushi King.
Passing by Sakae Sushi for many times and looking at the rows of computer screens, we decided to try it out on Mother’s Day at The Curve. While other eateries provide promotions for [...]

I have no plans to change this blog to an insect blog or anything like that. I am just disappointed with people who are acting like Weaver Ants. The disappointment is greater since most of them are friends.

More than a year ago, I became an Amway agent just because I needed to buy some recommended products from them. This was done by contacting an agent in the forums, in the Internet. When explained that I needed [...]

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.
The [...]

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.

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 [...]

I spent 6.5 hours from 9.00AM to 3.30PM at Puchong Naza Kia service center, wasting time because I didn’t realize they have free wifi.
As planned, we rushed to the Big Bad Wolf book sales at Amcorp Mall. The traffic was moderate, but Amcorp Mall was packed with people. Arriving at the outdoor parking space we [...]
