Nokia Messaging
As mentioned previously, Nokia Messaging makes mobile email easy, mobilising consumer email across a range of Nokia S60 devices. It lets users quickly set up, access and use their email through a service optimised specifically for mobile messaging.
Blogger Race on the SingTel F1 Simulators
I was invited to the SingTel Blogger Race on the F1 simulators, currently at SingTel's Pickering Operations Complex, moving to Suntec City next week. I even got to wear the F1 race suit, which felt like a built-in sauna!
Iluma
Iluma is one of the newest malls in town, near Bugis MRT between Queen Street and Victoria Street. It's fairly large with five levels and, as far as I can tell, no basement. Tenants include Coffee Bean and Nichii Fashion.
WordPress For Dummies 2nd Edition
I ordered WordPress For Dummies, 2nd Edition by Lisa from Amazon on 5th April 2009. Amazon estimated delivery by 12th May, but they vastly overestimated, as it landed in my letterbox today, 16th April, far ahead of schedule.
Tampines 1 Blogger Mall Tour & Meet Together Session
Li Xiang and I attended the Tampines 1 blogger mall tour and meet-up. We met at 2pm at the level 6 management office. Reaching level 5, we realised there was no way up to level 6 from there.
SingTel Huawei E180 Modem
On a whim, I emailed Ivy from SingTel to ask about buying the SingTel Huawei E180 modem at a discount. To my surprise, SingTel gave it to me free. Thank you, Ivy, and thank you, SingTel! It's just arrived.
Mirroring Files + Databases From DirectAdmin To cPanel
I host lesterchan.net on an ex-FRRO shared and reseller server, now effectively a dedicated box shared with Michael Feng. I also have a shared hosting account with a dedicated IP sponsored by Vodien, whose customer service is excellent and fast.
Tampines 1
Tampines 1 officially opens to the public this Thursday. Per the press release, Singapore's newest shopping destination is 100% leased out and opens on 9th April 2009 at 10am, spanning 260,000 square feet of fresh retail space.
Site Traffic March 2009
My March 2009 site traffic stats: 10,433,420 hits, 687,906 pages and 193,613 visits from 162,377 unique sites, with about 40.1 million KBytes transferred over the month. Another solid month, with traffic holding steady in the low millions.
SingTel Delivers Nokia Messaging To Singapore Consumers
I got this press release in my mailbox yesterday. Nokia Messaging makes mobile email easy, mobilising consumer email across a range of Nokia S60 devices, optimised for mobile. SingTel now brings it to Singapore consumers.
Canon First Blogger Event
I'm a Canon fan and prefer it over any other brand. I was invited to Canon's first blogger event at Screening Room, where they unveiled updated IXUS and PowerShot ranges plus new camcorders.
