Creating your own Web 2.0 button

Saturday 26 May 2007 @ 8:51 pm

You can use this to generate your own Web 2.0 button. It is quite easy to use and you could actually upload your own logo. They have 6 preloaded icon or you could load your icon.

After that you just need to type in some of the words that you wish to type. It is very user friendly, you just need to click “Apply changes” after everytime you have did some alteration.

The down side is that there is a lot of limitation to what you can do. Your logo can only be aligned on left, right or center. Then you wording may not fit into the size allowed, which is 200pixel.

Night Vision Goggle used by Malaysia Cinema

Saturday 26 May 2007 @ 2:50 pm

Malaysia have once been at the top list of pirated movie production, now it is far from being number 1, I think, as government have been controling this matters very closely.

Did you notice anyone with night vision goggle when you watching your movies? It would be funny to see someone using a night goggle to spy on you while you are dating or smooching around. Haha

The closest experience most people have with night goggles is with games like counter strike

I read TheStar online everyday and did not have any news regarding this until I read Yahoo! News, and it appear in the “odd news” section. Check out the news here

I truely believe this is a good way of advertisements as you will be targeting a very specific reader of a blog. A lot of Malaysian Bloggers have already started to participate in this Advertlets.

Slingbox by SlingMedia

Friday 25 May 2007 @ 10:42 am

Slingbox is actually a gadget which broadcast your home television to yourself. You will never miss your favorite show or the superb shot by Ronaldo ever again. This is because you are actually broadcasting your home television to the internet, then you could retrieve them through your Laptop or your mobile device.

You will be allow to control your satellite tv channel or cable tv channel by using Slingbox. It even supports TiVo. Which means you could watch, replay, rewind, fast forward your TiVo when you are stuck in a Traffic Jam, waiting for your dentist appointment or even at your classroom :) .

This is how it look like for Slingbox in action.

It actually have 3 version

  1. Slingbox Tuner
  2. Slingbox AV
  3. Slingbox Pro

It is actually quite a cool version. I just wonder if how many people can actually download the broadcast TV. What if you have your brother who is elsewhere and want to watch the same football match??

Also, you will need an Internet upload speed of at least 256kbps, and recommended speed is 512kbps.  Malaysia Streamyx speed with 1Mbps package is only 18.9kbps :( and download speed is 47.9kbps. Haha, how embarrassing.

Anyhow this is a cool gadget to be invented and this is not a paid post, I would actually hope that I own one of this and able to use them in Malaysia.
