Fixing My Own Dumb Mistake

I was trying to help out a friend who wanted to integrate bbPress into his blog. However, I ended up integrating my prototype with this blog’s database. So it’s screwed up my database tables. I’m in a panic state now and trying to get things back to normal.

Sorry about all this.

The causes of panic so far:

• Login always told me; You do not have permission to access this page.
• Resetting my account after managing to login as admin, got all my posts hiding inside the database.
• Manually backing up via phpmyadmin and restore the blog as it was originally.

New Blog Redesign Coming 2008

Farewell, Year 2006 – Hello, Year 2007

Happy New Year to everyone from us over here.

As usual the year had passed us quickly. The hours in the day seemed slow but each minute still made it through the day. Anyway, let’s not look back so much of what might have happened but what could happen in this year, 2007.

And there’s going to be something happening in 2007, on this website as well. An announcement of joint venture, maybe an update or even a change to this blog, new insight of the website industry in Malaysia and many more. So come back soon and hopefully it’ll all be revealed at the end of this month.
