5. YouTube.com – 4 percent

As an event blogger, I attend many events and functions, especially over the weekend. My photos are of high resolution and I am finding it difficult to send out photos to my friends, when I share with them. At the same time, my hard disk is running out of space again.
A friend told me that I should reduce the size of my photos so that I could email them out without taking so much time but that would mean reducing the quality of my photos as well. Some friends may want to print the photos out, you see. Besides, it’s a lot of time wasted to edit my photos too!
I discovered a Free File Hosting service just last night and tried to upload a few photos. I like the service because it is very straight forward. The maximum file size for unregistered use is 50 megabytes. That’s huge! Better still, for those who would like to register for a free account, the maximum file size is 101 megabytes.
What I like most is that I could tag my photos, which means that as time goes by and I have more photos in my account, I could still easily search for particular photos by just searching for tags.

The first of the .xxx top level domain has gone live, even as anti-smut groups are against the use of this new suffix, claiming that it will be easier for children to find.
On the other hand, domains that end with .xxx are closely monitored for hidden malicious viruses and Trojans so I personally think it is good that smut online is so easily identifiable.
Whether one is for or against it, porn will be here to stay, and as the saying goes, one man’s meat is another man’s poison. So even if porn was something good, it may not be suitable for everyone, or liked by everyone.
I met a girl over the weekend, and she told me that she is not the studious type. She said she just wants to get a certificate and get a job, not someone who would work hard, or do research on her subjects. Although I am not someone like that as well, I believe learning is a lifelong process. Thus, I really like the concept of online learning system, which allows us to learn at our own pace.
Although there are quite a few learning networks, CoursePark ranks ahead of its competitors because we can easily access thousands of courses from the world’s top publishers and industry experts under one portal. Seriously, one would have quite a hard time making the decision on which online courses to sign up for!
CourseParks caters to the independent learner; as long as one is willing to continue learning, CourseParks will have that course for you!
Indian IT entrepreneur, Sabeer Bhatia, the founder of Hotmail, free email service, 15 years ago, has just launched a free mobile texting service, which he claims will revolutionize the service much like how Hotmail did to emailing.
Although there are currently mobile phone applications that allow free texting, those are restricted to people who have downloaded the same applications. According to Sabeer Bhatia, his JaxtrSMS is open to all mobile phones around the world, even when the recipient does not have the JaxtrSMS application on his/her mobile phone.
This sounds like an interesting application to try. I wonder when it will be available here in Malaysia.
I have been reading a lot about side-effects caused by actos. One of the worst is bladder cancer. It is said to also increase the risk of heart failure or heart disease.
If you know of anyone who is suffering from bladder cancer and yet, is a none smoker and had been prescribed Actos, medication for diabetes, he or she should contact actos cancer lawyers.
There are a few lawyers who are handling such cases but make sure that the lawyer engaged is experienced in actos cancer, and has a strong track record, for the best chance of winning the case and being compensated fairly.
A global survey conducted by Regus shows that Malaysians in general work longer hours and worse, take home their work, to well, work. According to the survey, 47% of Malaysians take tasks home to finish at the end of a work day, for more than three times a week. This is compared to a global 43%.
15% of Malaysians work for more than 11 hours a day, compared with 10% globally. Yours truly already clocked 12 hours of work today and I am still working. Working such long hours has many negative effects but what to do when we need to put food on the table?
