Facebook

OK...I need to declare that I am not making any profit from Facebook by putting their name on the title of this posting :P

Anyway.....I am quite amazed by Facebook. When they launch....people is saying that they are only copying Friendster.com becoz friendster come 1st. Actually both are using the "6 degrees of separation" priciple in building the application. Basically it means friends meet friends and the the network expend from there.

What friendster did best, facebook expend it further. It encorporates advertisements, business opportunities, fun applications (I love Superpoke) and many many more. Also its build using Ajax...which enhances its GUI and user friendliness.

When I sign up, I am a bit sceptical that it will out-perform friendster. Well....little that I know, now it seems to be more succesful that friendster. I also begin to log into facebook more often than friendster now. Friendster try to introduce applications now, but I doubt it will be able to catch up anymore unless they come out with something new that is radical, interactive and fun.

Lastly....wanna say good job to Facebook.com for the good application. Also...for those who wanna add me ah, can search by my name (Kum Weng) lor :)

Updates

Well.....in my previous posting, I found out that I have not been blogging for a long time d. Now....I realize its more than 2 months since my last posting....which is even long.

Not sure whether those who frequent my blog still do so, but my best guess is that they do not since I no longer update this blog. Anyway....guess have to start blogging n promoting my blog ones again now.

Well....some updates:

Passion
I started to climb mountains again....being Gunung Nuang is the most I frequent. The fact that its bout 40kms away from my home and its very challenging, makes it a good place for me to workout n train my stamina. I can't hide the fact that I have a passion for the mountains (its still my No 1 passion) and being busy with work makes it hard to organise long trips. So a day trip to Gunung Nuang is just perfect. I am trying to make it a monthly daytrip event....try to go at least ones a month.

Work
Normal lor....still busy lor. Being in an SI company doin projects has its benefits and disadvantages also. The no 1 best benefit is that it is never boring as u change boss (client lor) very often based on ewhat project you do. You get to see a lot on many industry such as manufacturing, financial...etc etc.
Main disadvantage is that ur time is seldom predictable. Its especially hard if u wanna plan long holidays. Sometimes due to project commitment, we have to sacrifice some of our personal engagement.

DM Course
One word sums it all "dunno-lah". I cannot see the conclusion to this as I am busy with work and instructor busy with something else. So.....dunno-lah.

Love
Getting stronger by the day :D

Friends
Hmmm....think got make some new friends....hope din make any new enemy. Anyway....most of my friends are those who share the same passion aas me, so if I don organise more activities that relate to our passion...I think our friendship is fading slowly.

Oklah...that's bout all this time. More to come in the future :)
