When Opportunity Knocks

Recently, Zul from SkorCareer.com wrote an article on 5 Reasons Why You Need To Find Another Job. I think employers will have a difficult time retaining them if their employee read and take into considerations all the points on the article. I’ll summarize the points down below:

  1. You may own the profession but you don’t own the company.
  2. To find the life time opportunity, you need to look, and not wait for it.
  3. Expand your network
  4. Make more money
  5. Learn to give back to community

I find that all the points above is relevant and it should be practive whenever you get the chance. This year has been a very busy year for me. Earlier this year, I landed on a new job. I wrote a couple of blog posts during the journey at that time:

This month will be my 6th months on my new job and something had came up. One of the most difficult thing to do is to make decisions. In order to make that decision, questions need to be answered. It is tough but it needs to be done eventually. I guess something new will happen and I look forward to it when it finally comes and definitely will.

Paying For Google Storage?

My main e-mail has always been Gmail. Eventhough I already have my own domain, I just can’t find any other e-mail that has the functionality such as what Gmail offering. The best thing I think is the search function, it is so quick but you need to know the keyword first of course.

It seems like Google is now offering a paid version of their online storage. I personally never used Gmail as my main storage. Previously, I used my Yahoomail where I dumped all sort of stuff there an one day my Yahoo account got hacked by a script impersonating Yahoo Photos. Anyway, the other thing that bothers me is the internet connection. If lets say I wanted to upload or download something and the internet line keeps on turning off and on, it would be painfully annoying. Nevertheless, I don’t think I’ll ever finish using up all those online storage that I currently have right now. I never even finished up my own hard drive.

Oh well, it’s all a matter of preferences. Want to purchase more Google Storage?

KLCC PC Fair August 2007 Visit

Last Friday, right after work myself and my friend from New York head over to KLCC Convention Centre. It was a busy week last week so I was quite excited to visit PC Fair 2007. I don’t really have any budget to buy anything but I was eyeing on a printer or a wireless mouse to be used for my laptop. I also had a list of things Laadvamore asked me to buy for her female friends. Its been a couple of years already PC Fair is organized at KLCC Convention Centre. I really missed the PC Fair when it was held at The Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC). I think it is easier and more fun when it was at PWTC compared to KLCC Convention Centre.

After the entrance of the hall, you will see a map.

I just don’t think this map is useful because it made me confused after a while I’ve been there. Anyway, I founded the banquest hall first and it was full of speakers. It was blaring with sound and music, I couldn’t even stand being there for more than 5 minutes. I wonder how the sales guy inside that hall could have withstand the noise. I guess they must have had an ear plug or they’ll go deaf once PC Fair 2007 is over.

The not so good thing I find about PC Fair at KLCC Convention Centre is once you’ve passed by a place, you need to continue your journey through the maze and by then you’ll find your way out. Its typically design to make you go through all the route in order for you to see stuff that might bring out your wallet and buy. By the way, check out the Laptop Babes! ;-)

Eventhough it was Friday, the hall was packed with people looking for bargains. I guess it was a full house during Saturday and Sunday.

I can see that Maxis 3G Wireless Broadband was making a heavy marketing campaign. Every hall I went to have 2-3 booth that was asking people to sign up for the service. Even the TM Net guys seems so few compared to them. The internet connection is using the 3G network so it’s not really reliable but so far from how Laadvamore is using, it’s pretty much decent in Shah Alam. I even setup and attached a wireless router together with the Maxis modem sharing it with a couple of her other friends and it works fine so far. I’ll update on how the connection and the experience in a blog post soon.

The next day, I fell sick because of some strange reason and rested at home the entire weekend. I had plan to go back to KLCC on Saturday to look for more stuff but I went to the clinic instead. Oh well, my body need some rest I guest for working too hard. Oh well, there will be another PC Fair soon enough.

Not every 70-291 student but most of them have 646-204 as well as 70-649 and 70-620 to their credit and hence opting for a 642-901 or even a SY0-101 is not a big deal for these professionals whose ultimate goal is N10-003.

The Beauty Web Designer

I love watching Reality Shows. Yesterday night, I watched the second season of Beauty and The Geek and I am pretty sure every Tuesday night, I’ll be glued to the TV to watch the show. Nowadays, TV programs are refocusing their attention to different kind of people and matching them up with the good looking TV material type.

So earlier today, I was reading .net Practical Web Design magazine at my office and saw this picture:

Larissa Meek on Web Design Magazine

I was certain that I’ve seen her on TV somewhere but I couldn’t figure out who she was. So, I read the article and she was the lady who joined Average Joe Hawaii. I never missed that show when it was aired on TV. I would have never thought she is an accomplished web designer, at least that was what I found on Wikipedia. Pulling up Larissa Meek website, I was astounded by the awesome graphic design and best of all, she uses Wordpress.

A truly beauty, talented and gifted person the web have ever seen. I am now her big fan both for her design and good look :D
