Living in an Abusive World
As we progress, the world is getting expensive for us to live. In the past 5 years, a hundred ringgit note can buy us lots of things. At least, that amount can get you quite a bargain. Nowadays, all you can get from RM100 is a pack of diapers and a tin of powder milk. Quite shocking, isn't it?
So how do you survive this madness? How do you sustain your life in this abusive world? We can't beg for extra salary as our employer won't give a shit on us, aren't they? [+ read more]
Blog for Non-Techie Webmasters
To-date, there are at least 13 blog platforms well-known to the public and each one of them comes in different language. If you are 'web-geek', it won't be a problem but what if you don't have the technical knowledge, like me? No doubt, it will cause you pain in the neck.
Without undestanding blog platform, you still can become a blogger. All you need are some basic html and css knowledge... [+ read more]
Let Us BlogUpp! And Boost Our Readers
Not too long ago, I was searching methods on promoting this blog. I believe most of you already placed some widgets on your blog. Most popular widgets seemed to be BlogRush, MyBlogLog, EntreCard and/or Spottt to name a few.
Later, I found BlogUpp in Daniel Socco's blog. What is this? Another traffic exchange program? I visited their site... [+ read more]
My Domain, My World, My Raves & Rants
I enjoy writing stuffs. I love to know peoples read it. Even if no one reads it, I still love to write. I used to write articles in the past but due to time constraint, I had to let it go. But the world is getting advance--and so does the technology.
The last time I incorporate myself with the Internet, all I know was to characterize myself via some html stuffs. Everything was so typical and rigid. Yes, time has change dramatically. Instead of content that was for the most part static, I am starting to see the ability to remix content in different ways, to suit people’s needs.
Now is the era of blogs. With time, I find blogging is much more convenient to express my personal thoughts. But here goes the trouble. I’m not accustomed to blogs platform. Just name it a few; Wordpress, Blogger, TypePad, MovableType, Expression Engine, Text Pattern, Drupal, LiveJournal, Mambo--damn! Where was I just now?
See? Which one is the best? Honestly, I don’t know. Nevertheless, I’m trying very hard to understand WordPress technology. Yes, I have my interest on WordPress though. I believe every one of us at least, familiar with these platforms.
I know… I know… Some of you will suggest me this and that but it depends upon your technical abilities and web savvy but in my case, to move into stand alone platforms the complexity of set up tends to sweat me.
Correct me if I’m wrong. I don’t think in order to blog, I need to squeeze every piece of my brain cells to understand blog technologies. All I need is a place where I can write and publish it. Isn’t life too short to be wasted?
But, do I really need to blog? Unlike some of you who purposely blog for money, I personally love to share my thoughts, my experiences, love to hear about how my raves and rants helped someone in their daily life.
With my determination grows stronger, here comes the fear. Will anyone read it? Or will the robots are the one that ‘habitually’ pay me the visit? I don’t know. However, I accustomed into one theory. Practically nobody will read my blog--unless it's good. Even then, it'll be a very long time before lots of people have read it.
Rest assured. If I put in the effort, and write honestly, people (like you) will eventually find your way here.
Special Section: A Journey into the Web
Sure. Everyone loves to dedicate their time and effort into something within their interest. It can be anything. Car modifications, politics, businesses, daily job, internet, blogs, opportunities, and the list goes on and on.
I am very fortunate. I love what I do. And this section describes everything involves in creating this weblog. You, the reader might just have created your first blog, or you might be a veteran - either way what separates us is the magnitude of our experience: the number of blogs we have created!
As mentioned previously, I love to share my thoughts, experiences, love to hear about how my raves and rants helped someone in their daily life. This section dedicated to that, particularly my experience in getting my weblog into the Web. It's a lot of works but wishfully, my experiences may help you dive into the Web world; at least for beginners like me. Let the journey begins!
