Weekend Mountain Retreat

I’ve followed my parents to retreat to the mountains this Chinese New Year weekend. It’s a good idea to getaway from all the hustle bustle and (I don’t believe I’m saying this) the computer for awhile. But I know stepping away from the keyboard and my 22″ widescreen has been a great way for me to compile myself again. In preparation to whatever else may become of this year. Especially for my Malaysia website design company; Simpleet Solutions.

Well, I hope to see everyone again – soon. Now to pack all the life-support I’ll need without the computer like; DVDs, music, Macbook (you didn’t see this) and books. Yes, I do read books besides the Internet. Jia-ne!

There was a phrase I heard watching Discovery Science this Chinese New Year. It goes something like, “technology is the key to the future but what is the key to technology”.

Social bookmarking is a method for Internet users to store, organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web pages on the Internet with the help of metadata.

Will Netbooks Change The Internet Experience?

Netbooks are like the next generation of consumer mobile computers or notebooks right now. What’s even more surprising is this comes not late after the super low-cost laptops for poverty stricken countries. But there’s nothing to complain, because more laptops means a more Internet connected community.

Sure, we’ll have more Internet addicts and black hat hackers on the prowl but at least netbooks are making technology advancements quicker. It’s become an instant hit even Wikipedia has an article about it already.

A netbook is a light-weight, low-cost, energy-efficient, highly portable laptop that achieves these parameters by offering fewer features, less processing power and reduced ability to run resource-intensive operating systems.
