Malaysian Dream Girl

1 Comment

Who do you think will be the Malaysian Dream Girl? If you like to support leng luis, this is the reality show for you. Personally, I don’t care one way or the other who wins or lose because I no longer have time for TV but I am surprised that a show like this could still pique the interest of people from various age groups. All right, maybe I am OLD already?

If you would like to know more about this new reality show to hit Malaysia, then check out their website, though I shall not publish it here. I am sure you can already see it heavily advertised across many of our blogs.

I’ll most probably do a post on the winner later on, when the winner is declared.

1000 EntreCard Credits

Leave a comment

A few days ago, I got news that I won a contest. I was so happy and excited but then I later found out that the prize I won was 1000 EntreCard Credits. Boohoohoo. How sad. This 1000 was the second prize and the first prize was US$100. How I can do with the cash but luck was not on my side. GGGrrrr

What can 1000 EntreCard Credits do? I myself have plenty of EntreCard Credits already with three accounts with them, though I have stopped dropping cads on purpose because I have no time to do so.

And because I no longer drop cards actively and since the directory has grew at such a fast pace, I am no longer getting quality traffic from them.

What I do now is just to allow people to advertise on my blog for 2 EntreCard Credits. LOL So low, huh? Don’t care lah!

Any Plans Buying Used Engines & Transmissions?

Leave a comment

If you are on the market or used engines and transmissions, I am sure you know how difficult it could be. Buying car parts, especially used car parts, we have to be extra careful and only buy from reputable companies.

If you check out the website of midwest auto recycling, you can see that they take good care of their inventory which comprises of used engines and used transmissions for a whole range of car makes and models.

I used to think that buying something like this, I’d rather buy from a local store but in fact the deciding factor should be which company can give us value for money. So if you have plans to change your engine or transmission, check out Midwest Auto Recycling.

“Let’s Set Up Websites and Blogs”

Leave a comment

Did you read the news report on the press conference of Dato’ Seri Dr. Lim Keng Yaik that he made on the day he cleared out his office? I found it so funny that he told his Gerakan people to start websites and blogs to criticize the new alternative government. HAHAHAHA

I wonder if I was the only one who found it damn funny. I think that he’s like a generation late because the internet revolves so fast setting up a blog now with the sole intention to criticize the Government, who will want to read? How many RPK can there be, right?

Can you imagine, now that he has retired from active politics and become the advisor to Gerakan, he has so much time on his hands that his learns how to blog, together with Zam, and then both of them start to criticize the Government with their new platform LOL

Now You See, Now Your Don’t

That’s what’s happening to our page rank. My friend sent me a text message this afternoon when I was taking a nap informing me that she has a PR2 now for her blog. This blog used to be a PR4 but was slapped by Goo a few months ago. How long ago was it, I can’t exactly remember but while the rest of us were eating eggs, she still had a PR4 for awhile. It then dropped to a 3 and later, 0.

Well, now she’s happy :) but I’m not :( I still have six eggs to eat not counting those that were slapped by association. Yes, some people say it has no relation but I think it does. Sue me lah!

A PR2 may seem low to some people but it makes a huge difference when it comes to blogging for money. I know because once my last PR2 fell to a zero, all my opps suddenly dried up. Oh well…. let’s hope for the best.

Invest In Rare Coin Collections

2 Comments

Some people collect stamps, some people collect coins. Do you know which collection is a better investment? I think it is the coin collection.

However, if you have a rare coin collection, it will be more valuable. There are people who purposely collect these rare coins because they know that their value will appreciate in time.

If you would like to expand your collection of rare coins, one of the reputable coin trading companies that I know of, Monaco Rare Coin, has the experience and expertise to help you find them at a fair market value.

When you are looking to grow your portfolio of rare coins, you will want to go through a company with years of good reputation behind them, besides the knowledge and experience.

Google Overcomes Block Attempt To Overtake DoubleClick For US$3.1 billion

Leave a comment

Woowzer… I’ve just got news today that Google has finally overcome the obstacle to overtake DoubleClick for US$3.1 billion. That’s a lot of money, dude!

I am eagerly waiting for this to happen to see what advertising opportunities will be open to us. We international publishers have been sidelined all along so hopefully with the mechanism of Google already in place, we will have more avenues to make money off our blogs.

This morning, I was pissed when I received an email from a marketplace letting me know that they have wrongly assigned me a task and they “do not expect me to keep my post up on my blog”.

Oh hey, where’s my US$20? I did the job and expect to be paid. Bloody pissed off. Really can’t put all our eggs in one basket, you know?
