Browser choice of the month - Opera

Although I am not 100% sure and dare not claim strongly, I pretty much can say that more than 80% of Singapore Internet user uses IE, good for you, Microsoft.
There are also some in Singapore who is using FireFox, etc.
But, I think not much have heard of Opera, cliam to be the faster Browser on Earth.

Other that the High speed that it claim, 2 features that will certainly make me download and test it out:

1. Integrated Search
2. Opera is also the First Web browser to natively support Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)

Internet is moving so fast, faster than I can say "lets Opera!"

USB massager that was designed to look like tortoise

This is a massager, not a virbrator, that has a tortoise design, power by merely a USB plug-in.
I saw this in one of the PC magazine, but could not find it any where on the web or any PC store I came across in Singapore, If anyone see this please kindly tip me, or drop a message here.

I heard although it is quite small, but it is powerful enough to do the job well. The Mag told me.

The relentless ideas on the internet

Now, I do not entirely support the ideas of pirates, but....
to stop people from downloading content from the internet is like a dream, that, can never come true, is like stopping human urge to multiply, would essentially stop all human from creating at all.

Now, before it go on big screen, you can download, who would ever want to crack their head and go through all the works anymore? Wait! wait! soon you can download this....

Submersible thumb drive BenQ DP213

Do you often drop you USB drive into water? ever dream of carrying a thumb with you while diving, like James Bond?
I guess not, but having a USB thumb drive that can take up a substantial water pressure is surely nice.

Tha water resistent ability of the product not only credit to its special glue externally, but its also apply a technology name "ultra wave seal" internally, unlike others thumb only have a glue outside. This technological application is still at a very expensive stage, which only BenQ is doing it now.

The downside of this gadget is, its maximum capacity is only 256MB.

Why don't you do it yourself! D U D E

Night comes, end of season one on my TNG.
I freekin hate this and miss my former philippino housekeeper.

Rss Forwarder as a dual function web application

Here is a very useful web application I am currently using, The RSS Forwarder.
Tired of hopping from blog to blog, site to site, news to news, just key in the URL of the site that have RSS feed and, you email address. Viola! you now can read the full content in your inbox, the feed will update every 6-12 hours.

I also use this to backup my blog content, same thing, instead, I enter my own email address.

But WAIT! you think thats all? No! this can also become a double edge sword if you like. Imagine an undesirable, disgusting web URL, or blog, and then the email of some one you don't like......you got it, you spam me, I'll too double spammed you! but you dunno who I am! RSS FWD will do the job for me.

Haha! vengence is sweet, revenge is mine.

Relevant read on the web : What is RSS?

Spread the blood of the lamb on your front door

Remembered I have rant about the spread and effect of the avian H5N1 Bird flu in Singapore, well, that post seem like is for fun, but it was not, because now it is like the a dark wave sweeping through many country, Western and Eastern, soon it is going to be very real to us.
2 days ago there was also a news talking about this possible pandemic from CNN, scare, like the black death that wipe out one third of European population in the 14th century, only this time we are more well inform and prepare, or are we?

This also remind me about the Bible 'myth' when Pharaoh refuse to let the Israel people leave Egypt, a wave of black death sweep across the country and all first born was take away, only those that has painted the blood of the lamb of the front door is spare.

Singapore population are living very close to each other, every day we see, touch and use the same equipment, HDB, buses, MRT, wet market and even the public toilet.

If the virus go air bond,(likely possible) and come here, I think we may have serious problem, probably worst than SARS.

Update: Now I really hope this post will not become a H5N1 Avian flu watch, but seem like it is getting nearer to Singapore:
Malaysia says 40 chickens died of H5N1 bird flu virus
Lets hope it will not get out of hand

Update 2: This is going nowhere, I feel like myself becoming H5N1 watcher, but if I dun say, I feel a bit 良心不安。
WHO: Changes in H5N1 virus may promote spread in birds
India Kills 223,000 Birds; Virus Spreads in Europe (Update2)
Yesterday I went to clinic and found out that the flu vaccine is out of stock, maybe worldwide, apparently many people in fear of the Avian flu, rush to their nearest GP and jab on to any flu vaccine that is available. Let me enlighten some Singaporean here, there is currently no vaccine that would effective against the H5N1 Avian bird Flu virus, if you kena, pray very hard to whatever God that you believe, because there ain't any cure or remedy ready to help.

You would need a miracle.

Update 3: This will be the last update, it seem like it will become un-trackable
HK bird flu virus linked to S.Korea 2004 strain
It will continue to get worst, I fear, this is unavoidable, we should get prepare that it can come from all direction.

豆与萁，本同根

Yesterday, Raynor and I went to see the GP together, for his long due DPT vaccine injection.
He was rather resistent initially, and started to imagine how painful it will be for a sharp metal to penetrate his arm, I can't find a word to console him.

Just before we leave our house, William, upon learning about his elder going for that kind of dreadful stuff, immidately handed one of his favourite thingy - The Power Ranger toy to his brother, we find it too troublesome to carry it to the clinic and gently reject, but he insisted:

"Give, Koko, Give!"
"Koko, take! take!"
We cannot refuse his kindness, and guess that he believes the little idol will somehow give his elder the courage and protection. Sure enough, Raynor never shear a single tears throughout the injection. After we are home, William admire his brother tiny wound with plaster on it, as if he is the hero of the family.

"Koko, pain? pain?"
"Koko no pain! like mozzie bite like that."
I cannot take this event off my mind, and I believe it will stay with me for many years to come.

William is only 2 and a half now, turning to three this coming May.

I envy you, Raynor.
And I wish I could become a brother like you have now.
