Just want to share some rsync code snippets that I used to backup my data to either Dropbox or Jungle Disk on my Mac.

I have problems finding/Googling the proper flags to use for rsync for Dropbox and Jungle Disk when I first got started with rsync on the Internet, hopefully this blog post will be useful for someone.

PopCap Games hits the jackpot after producing hit games like Bejeweled and Plants vs Zombies among many others.

Copied + Pasted from Techcrunch or you can check out the Press Release from EA:

Got the Eye-Fi Pro X2 8 GB from Amazon for US$91.49 together with my Cocoon Grid-It. Shipping cost US$21.46 in total.

The Eye-Fi is not officially sold in Singapore so you have to either get it from resellers who bought it overseas or you get it directly from Amazon. The Eye-Fi Pro X2 8 GB cost about S$160 when you get it from resellers in Singapore, it is more expensive, but you do not need to wait 1 to 2 weeks for it as normally they got ready stock. Amazon is cheaper but you have to wait 2 weeks (in my case) for it.

Cocoon has an interesting product which I would call it a bag organizer for gadgets, it is called Grid-It! They come in various sizes and colors to suit different bags and gadgets sizes. Prices range between US$10 to US$50.

What Is Grid-It?

Thanks to SingTel for the invite to the SingTel AMPed Lady Gaga “Born This Way” Showcase at Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Center which happened on Thursday, 7th July 2011. Lady Gaga was here to celebrate the 2nd anniversary of SingTel AMPed. She was here 2 years ago to launch SingTel AMPed.

I wanted to get the Simplism DockCarabiner Neo for iPhone during the PC Show 2011 back in June 2011 but the black color was sold out on the second day. I went back on the third day but there was no re-stock. It was only selling for S$13.20 at Epicentre.

Ever since then I have been checking out various branches of Epicentre, but all of them do not have the black color. I also saw it at DG Lifestyle Store at VivoCity but they do not have black as well. But I left my name with them and ask them to call me when they have re-stock for black color.

Retractable iPhone, Mini USB, Micro USB Cable

Got the Retractable USB to iPhone/iPod/Mini USB/Micro USB Data & Charging Cable (70CM-Length) from Deal Extreme for US$7.20. I saw the same cable selling for S$29.90 at Challenger!

Nokia E7 is essentially a Nokia N8 with a keyboard. You probably heard it many times.

I will not be touching on the OS aspect as it is still based on Symbian^3 which is exactly the same as Nokia N8. This short review is mostly a comparison with Nokia N8.

I joined Twitter on 29th June 2007 and today marks my 4th year in Twitter. Despite joining in June 2007, my first tweet came only on 7th October 2007.
