Malaysia website design blog
Textpattern is one of the other famous publishing engines used by many around the world. The first time I heard about it, I got it mixed up with MovableType for some reason. I suppose it’s because it sounded close to TypePad. *shrug*
I’ve yet to try out Textpattern but have come across one blog that has a very in depth user experience of the publishing engine.
As a designer, it’s honest to say that I’m a perfectionist always trying to achieve that perfect web design. However, as much as I tweak and nudge the designs around in Photoshop, it sometimes leave me with either a messed up design or a design that I’m still not so happy over.
Design is a totally subjective manner because everyone who views it feels differently. When you stare at the Mona Lisa, an artist would label it as the artwork. If you asked an accountant, he/she might label it as a nice picture. If you asked a designer, they’ll admit it being the artwork because they were taught that way but in their mind and heart they know there’s room for improvement because they’re perfectionist.
Hey hey, aim those loaded buns somewhere more open. The GASS that I meant was Google Adsense Stats Syndrome like the one I was speaking about in my previous article; Path of The Problogger – Adsense. It hasn’t been considered an actual medical diagnosis but like I said, it takes self-realization and honesty to step forward.
As much as this started as a laughing matter, imagine if you were without an Internet connection for a week or more. The results or behaviour would initially be the same like a person who has a mobile phone but no line in a foreign country. Trust me, when I was without any telephone communication in Melbourne for a whole week, I felt like I was missing a huge part of my life.
There’s something about to happen tonight on Project Petaling Street at around 10PM. What? You never heard of it? It was going all around since this afternoon. Oh well, better late than never as I’d tell some people. Anyway, there’s going to be a big party over here later at 10PM. Yup. I’m going to … Read more
This is the follow up to the article, MALAYSIAN PIRATED BLOGGER which saw a new Malaysian blogger who launched the blog BloggerTips gaining early popularity for the wrong reasons. The wrong reason was looked at very severely when you’re taking an exam, in college, in university and now, on the Internet.
This new blogger in the local blogosphere recently announced that his mistake came from his ignorance of using live blog posts from other sources just to test his new blog. As much as I’d like to believe its truth and not hammer my own countryman, I find it very weird that a blogger or a person could just go ahead and utilize the tons of online content and not have a clue that credit should be given to the original authors.
Wow! It’s just great to be back. My website, blog, portfolio has taken a turn to be one of the best. I started this blog with categories like Life, Games, Computers, Anime and Web. All of it were interest close to my heart that I carried since high school through college. But since I started thinking about business, website designing as a very professional career, dreaming of providing a better working environment to hopefully my employees and share my knowledge with interested students and clients, I’ve matured and decided I needed to move forward.
That’s why I’ve made some significant changes to my blog. Focusing more on websites from the design point through to the business side and even latest news and articles. Not to mention I’ll be sharing my knowledge and views now tackling agendas having to do with the process of website development. So I hope everyone will welcome this change and if it does get too boring, I’ll create a seperate blog later on for all my ramblings and whatnots. :)
I just found out that it was released. Well, my bad that I didn’t constantly check back at the SixApart website. Anyway, I’m going to upgrade the blog tonight and most probably revert to default blog template in the meantime. I hope to figure out the new MT version soon so I can get the … Read more
We’ve heard of the great dilemma Claire of Minishorts faced when she discovered someone plagiarized her post directly, HERE. The perpetrator not only copied the images that were edited by Claire but also the article written by her. Now, as a blogger, that is truly sinking to an all time low.
I’m very sure everyone wants to make a quick buck and a name for themselves as fast as they can. Therefore I’d like to hereby announce the winner of the quickest, lowest, shadiest (if there’s a word) blogger or person in Malaysia. He is the owner of BloggerTips.
Like a caterpillar that hopes to one day become a beautiful butterfly, we carry on with our normal blogging life till we reach maturity. After that, we start pausing between blog posts and figured that our blogs need something different.
Hence came forth the need to find a niche for our blog. The niche is like the caterpillar trying to find a safe place for it to become the butterfly. However, unlike the caterpillar that rests inside its protective cage, we continue our blogging on the verge to become that beautiful object of desire.
Starting yet another hazy day, I launched my email client to check if there were any new emails. The feeling of receiving emails is always a happy thing because it feels comforting that someone out there cares or wonders about you.
As much as it pleases anybody to receive fan email or in my case, feedback of my blog or website, the emails sent to me were newsletters and invites. I got a newsletter from Thawte; company selling SSL certificates, and it’s weird because I don’t remember subscribing to them. The invites were interesting with one coming from Softnyx (Gunbound creators) asking if I’d like to BETA test their new fantasy game called, Raikon.
The second invite came from supposedly PayPal. Everything in the email down to the email address listed it as coming from PayPal themselves. However, one crucial mistake foiled this phishing scam.
The term phishing is used to described a scam by sending an email to an end-user with the representation that the email was send from a legitimate establishment, but the true intent is to gather personal information of the end-user with the intent to fraudulent use these information. ~ Symmetric Triangle
