Google

It's just awesome how Google's cloud computing services are free, and only supported by ads. Now with Android, they earn through the Market, like Apple does.Studies shown that Apple App Store has about 20% of free apps, whereas Google Android Market has about 60% of free apps. I can't deny the fact, even Angry Birds is free for its first final build for Android.

Angry Birds. Now on Android. Just so awesome.

Oh I'm back to Mac OS X again. Might be temporary. And there's Mac OS X 10.7 coming out, possibly the Lion.

Mac OS 10.7 codename Lion?

Just read The Power. Great book. Strangest time is that I read the book when I sleep with this thing.

It's just a piece of clear plastic with light coming out from the side. Simple yet effective.

Gabby had been learning a lot. Now she wants to be carried in the sitting position like so :

I can't really carry her in this way yet.

A little news on the Acer Liquid E. Running on a custom ROM on Android 2.1 Eclair. Super stable, higher sensitivity and also battery conserving. It's good IMO.
Waiting for Android 2.2 FroYo, either official with the Acer Stream UI or just Cyanogen Mod with their awesome tweaks and features =D. Overclocking is also made possible with custom ROMs with custom kernels.

Launcher Pro on 2nd page. 3rd page is my main =P

Custom ROMs are awesome, they have a sorts of tweaks, music mod that enabled gesture controls, faster and much more longer battery life. Cyanogen Mod is the far most impressive one. I used it for a while, downgraded due to stability issues with the camera and GPS, has an option for menu button for unlock, music controls on lock screen, compcache personalization, options if you wanna have your home always in your RAM or not, and much more.

Cyanogen Mod is the far most awesome ROM of all times on Android. A thumbs up, and something worth the recognition.

Review of the phone is coming out real soon =D. I'm really happy that Android has integrated so many functions on Android. Syncing is a breeze, it synced with Facebook, Twitter and also Gmail. By syncing contacts, you can have your display pictures of contacts from Facebook, email and Facebook account information and Twitter name on the particular contact itself, and synced on Gmail. Losing your contacts is not a problem not =D.

Well that's all for now, I might be showing off and promoting Android/Google a lot, but I think that Android is more for my use though. Sorry Apple iPhone. Sorry Windows Phone 7 that doesn't have copy and paste feature and launching apps that takes few minutes each.

O my niece

After wasting my time reinstalling Windows Live Writer that is a shame in uninstalling, I finally did it and downgraded to a stable version thanks to Handy Uninstaller!

Well a short update here, my niece got shaved bald lol.

My mom and the baldie lol.

She’s sleepy actually.

She slept in like about 5 minutes after lol.

She head is really clear!

Phones, phone, phones. They come and go everyday, even the one you’re using (yes iPhones and Androids too). Whatever that is, there’s always one phone that has the biggest bang for your bucks based on your own personal choice.

I found mine and got it.

Acer Liquid E.

I actually wanted to do a full review on this, but my allocated time was consumed just to fix this Live Writer. Anyway I’ll try to go through more with the phone first before reviewing. Till now, I love it!

By the way, Windows Phone 7 does not support Internet tethering, clipboard and true multitasking.

Seriously? Both Android and iPhone had it long ago.

What’s this?

Holidays are coming to an end. Should I be grateful? Maybe, I’m already losing part of myself just sitting around. Got a few tasks to do after the holidays back at school for homeboys.

As always, I’m quite lazy to post updates these days. Feels so demotivated.

Got a flash drive for my aunt. It looks stylish and awesome!

Jailbroken my cousin brother’s iPhone 3G S. It’s a second hand phone, using iOS 4.0.2 which only fixed the PDF exploit back at iOS 4.0.1.

Downgraded, jailbroken, patched the exploit and used it for few hours. Still, my heart isn’t for the iPhone.

Yet…

It fits!

Then I cleaned my rig. Finally, after 9 months!

Dust smiled at me

Sunbeam Core-Contact Freezer. So much clogging that it chokes.

One swipe over each fin and this is what I get.

Went KL for a day on Tuesday. Didn’t really enjoy it much though.

Had a good meal at Subway in Sunway Pyramid.

On the next day, friends came over. I was so tired that I barely remembered what happened. Like I was on drugs.

Yung Wei gets high on Coke – noted!

Then there are forbidden pictures that I can’t upload and a lot of pictures taken on Yung Wei’s. Check out Facebook for a few uploaded ones!

Got to play with Seng Foo’s Optimus Prime helmet. Comes with autotune =D

Took care of Gabby till 3 in the morning with her parents. That was tiring

Even my mom came and helped.

Not much update here. I hope to bring more joy in blogging again some time sooner.

Till next time then! Enjoy yourselves and don’t let anything hold you back.

Holidays~ Selamat Hari Raya!

Yes, Hari Raya is today actually. Well I bet some of you are bored. There’s quite a few updates recently.

Firstly, I got my driving license *at last!*. I’m still a coward . I don’t dare to drive out yet. Well, getting my license means I can wake up late on Sunday mornings again, don’t have to go round that 3 roads that I keep forgetting the way and my instructor’s complaints and words that he speaks so softly even his own tongue can’t hear (if it has ears).

What a day to have your driving test.

Then there’s my niece. The more I see her, the chubbier she gets. Seriously.

Pictures I took with my cousin’s D60 with macro and UV filter.

Large eyes

These were taken last week, this is today.

Her outfit doesn’t really fit her anymore

Went KL and back two weeks ago, here’s a picture of Rakuzen’s sushi . Full album on my Facebook .

Fried prawns, my favourite.

At the beginning of the month, Apple got a keynote on their music player/gadgets, namely the iPod family and iTunes.

Firstly I’d like to say R.I.P. to the Click Wheel, and I wonder how you want to scroll through songs on the new iPod Nano.

Now, I present the iTunes 10.

All with album art

The new iTunes 10 actually tops off with unexpected tidbits that I think is useful for most of us. Just click on the album art at the lower left side and you’ll get this.

What else would you get? The album art of course!

The album art itself is now a mini player instead of just the album art in iTunes 9.

Cool?

Size might be randomly unfavourable for most of us, so you can actually do this.

Why are you so great?

Well, before I end this post I would like to announce the death of the HTC Touch Elfin I’d been using for about 7 or 8 months now. The battery got pregnant and it’s nowhere to be found in retail shops, asked the official HTC group on Facebook without reply yet.

Next phone I’m getting will not be a Windows Mobile phone for sure. Totally the worse experience of phones is with WinMo. It lags very much, consumes battery like a great white shark.

I’m aiming on the Acer Liquid E actually. The phone is totally a kickass one with the price, but is still expensive for me. I’m using a Sony Ericsson w800 while waiting for the price of this babe to drop since it was only released on August.

The more I see, the more I love this phone.

Swing from the hip now!

I’m back! Not by swinging from my hip that is, my backbone is killing me these days. It’s from a song, 00 Gringo by Urban Delights. A funky song I must say.

SPM Trials just past for a day, and I’m like a free bird now. I never felt so care free.

First off, being an uncle now. Yes. My sister-in-law gave birth and is now a mother to a baby girl. Gabrieanne Yap Xin Yee.

If you ever see this picture of yourself in the future, please don’t sue me.

I can’t just leave this picture in my hard disk. =|

Next up is a lame one. My brother actually plays Starcraft II.

It’s so lame!

I actually went into a wine house with my mom. To my surprise, the place is cozy and I find it really pleasant.

Don’t really have a nice shot of the whole shop inside, too dark =|

For dead phones, we have first blood! Not really dead, it's the screen’s problem I suppose.

Notice the different colour of the buttons LOL.

Yeah It’s my mom’s Sony Ericsson W550i. Turns out it’s only a minor problem, but she got a Corby Wifi instead.

Kitchen had been leaking water due to external retention and caused a minor flood in the kitchen! *Gasp*

Happens only during heavy rains.

There’s this line of crack that enables all water to get in. This thing squeezes fillers out. It did the job magically.

A part got patched up. Just look at the cracks =\

Somehow my niece’s first full moon celebration arrived. That month was fast.

The family with someone extra there.

See the whole gallery only on Facebook! Link to my profile at the side >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

That leads me to today. Trials are over, being care free by celebrating my joy with a DSLR borrowed from my cousin brother. He got a UV filter and a +4 macro filter, both for about RM60, which I can’t believe! It’s so cheap! So I got around and objectwhoring. It’s a macro filter, who wouldn’t snap close-ups?

Yup, 5Hv2 got a new companion, the iPod Nano 2nd Gen.

This player might be old, but it still does its job pretty long lasting with a single charge.

Well I better go sleep now, it’s already 12.30a.m. and I have to jump out of the bed early to get to KL tomorrow! Should be posting again real soon!
