Web Hosting - some guidelines

Before committing to any web hosts, I would first go through a web hosting review, determine whichever web host that offers the best package for different operating system platforms, be it Linux or Windows.

Apart from that, the locality of the web hosting - Europe, North America, Asia, Africa or Australia, is essential in determining access speed and stability. Having a review site rating and recommending the best web hosts by giving out different best awards ranging from "best budget" to "best linux" web hosts is an added bonus.

Kuching nite shots...

dusk @ Kuching Waterfront, overlooking the North & South sides of the city, divided by the Sarawak River...

waterfront roadside night shot...

a bunch of Canon-ians setting up tripods at the roadside...

the intersection of Carpenter Street & Wayang Street from Medan Pelita, with the new DUN at the far end glowing...

Kuching's golden triangle, a mixture of new buildings & old structures...

7 months running & 2.5 months being my own boss...

the business partnership started approx. 7 months ago, and it as been 2.5 months since I last step foot into the workplace that I use to go to for the past 7+ years... to which I was glad, but regretted not leaving any earlier...

impulsive purchase/upgrade...

from January 2009 - December 2010, for approximately 2 years, I have been using 17 incher RSW chrome deep dish rims......

..................

...

.

and right before the 2011 Chinese New Year...

went window shopping for rims with a few friends... and ended up with this:

18 incher rep. Advan Racing RS... =_____='"

too good to ignore, and I succumbed...

DIGI's current iPhone 4 promotion for existing iPhone 3Gs package subscribers is a steal, ... and I ended up getting one... as a Christmas gift for myself... ... =____=||

something I don't really need... yet...

a portion of my credit card points is about to expire soon, so I used them up in exchange for a Pierre Cardin pen set...

this pen set come included with a leather pen pouch... nice huh??

one is a roller pen, one is a ball pen... heh... =)

random shots...

just so that this blog doesn't appear dead, here are two recent photos that I took when going on night street photography sessions with my Canon clan... =)

night shot of Kuching city center/waterfront from Kampung Gersik, across river...

what else??

the mega twin structures that single-handedly put Malaysia in the world map...

assorted food snaps VI

the Char Siew (叉烧) from Fang Yuan (芳圆茶室) is the ultimate fatty pork goodness...

was at this new restaurant in town - Delizze... ordered this, but forgotten the name of it...

one was filled with shrimp while the other was cheese... just nice for a light meal...

mix platter of chicken, char siew & BBQ pork...

the overhyped McDonald's GCB, tasted pretty good, but I'm never gonna pay close to RM10 for such a puny burger... totally not worth it... a RM5 roadside Ramli burger special is a way better deal... =)

now these are good stuff, especially the one on the left ---> bacon-flavoured crackers... *yums*... =p

note: bacon-flavoured means non-Halal ok... hehehe...

changing address made simpler

Address is not just the exact place of where we live, work, or do business, but it is how people look for us. As we grow older and move out from our parents' place, going into college, university and later on joining the workforce or opening up businesses, we are most likely to change our addresses along the way.

Then, problems would occur when government agencies, potential employees, universities, banks, tax office and other parties try to locate us, but fail because we have just moved to another location, maybe a bigger apartment, or change of work place, and due to being too busy or absent-minded, we did not update our addresses with all of them.

The change of address actually can be done with ease via Change of Address.org. Plus, the service provided is free from all pop-up ads and continuous marketing. All users need to do is to complete a Form 3575-USPS Change of Address Form. The site offers free change of address service for people that are moving into a new home or workplace anywhere in the U.S. only, including those agencies that require notification of an address change such as the IRS, Social Security Administration and the State Department of Motor Vehicles are also provided. A checklist for change of address will also be provided to ensure we do not forget to notify everyone.

Damai Puri getaway...

went up to Damai Puri over the Gawai weekend last month...

Emperor Club's Anniversary...+ Car Show & Model Search...

I was invited to attend Emperor Club's Anniversary about two months ago. Apart from the anniversary party, a steamboat dinner, a car show and a model search were also included in program... and it was a blast...

fleet of sports cars, ranging from Imprezas, Supras, 350Zs, MR-Ss, Evos to GT-Rs...

almost night time... partayy time... =)

I typically love this shot... notice the crescent moon with a star above it in the middle??

votes given by everyone at the party...

when there are models, photographers with big ass DSLRs are always within shooting distance... including yours truly that night... hehehe... =P

hiatus...

two things to blame...

1) my iPhone - it's too much fun till it's eating into my blogging time...

2) Facebook - notifications that kept on beeping/showing up drew my attention away from my PC... =____='''''

will try to resume blogging asap... so much happenings over the past months...
