TV Revolution

By rolling out internet-enabled plasma TV , collaborating with YouTube for its online videos and Google for its web album,Panasonic has promised to offer an alternative to the usual programmes of traditional media.

I just can't wait for it to be rolled out in Singapore. Hopefully it will really be a free source of interactive TV,but currently it is only available in North America. Click here to know more

Sony has also rolled out its own version of internet enabled TV with different collaborators for content.Click here to know more With the two giants at work the screen is more than just a computer panel and I feel there is more flavours and surprises at work =)

Hopes for 08

Just now I chanced upon IBM's five In Five Innovations 08 and it is very interesting reading them especially the one which is about tagging food with a second generation RFID tag. This may enable easier selection of fresher food. But if not closely supervised by the implementing authority, heartless vendor may just retag unfresh food with newer labels thus causing more to suffer =).

On my way home,I heard about some economic forecast of Singapore in 08 from CNA on TV Mobile. Hopefully the benefit of growth will filter down more as the prospect of raising inflation with no precedence for the last few years will really mean that I have to really watch my spending since I still haven't really offically started my working life yet.

Currently still consolidating the photographs of my Christmas 07 and New Year 08 family gatherings which are truly unforgettable to me =)

Technology 07/08

What is mentioned below is only my personal perceptions and it does not represent any other external party.

Unless Content provider of new technlogies(3.5G and HDTV etc)in Singapore is able to persuade the mass Singapore market that what they provide is indispensible in daily living,the best way to create a market and awareness is free content that is readily available for trying.

Hopefully 2008 will be a year where more interesting,intuitive,and personalised free content will be rolled out for the singapore mass to try out thus creating more opportunities for all.

I feel for 07 the:
Best technological advancement is the invention of a portable wireless storage device with mobile wireless web server capbility that is carried by Suzuki Technology.=) http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/technologynews/view/318523/1/.html

Most Innovative IT establishment is Google with the establishment on Google New where reader can have more interaction with news sources and its consist innovation of new improvements to the internet. Honestly I have just read about the google news article but will be looking forward to trying it soon =) http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/technologynews/view/319226/1/.html

The links provided above are all that I feel is interesting and would like to share based on personnel preference. They are all directly linked from the CNA articles in its technology section.

Sentosa SkyRide/Luge, Malacca Trip, and Cousin's outing

16/12/07: The ride on Sentosa SkyRide/Luge really spiced up an otherwise dull trip due to the wet weather which makes a day at the beach really boring.

Breathtaking paranoma of the island and Singapore city skyline really makes one marvel.

A relaxing evening at TCC Dohby Ghaut to celebrate one of my cousin's birthday brings about a good chance to chill and relax after a hectic week to bring about extended cousin bonding.


A trip to Melaka allows relaxation and indulgence in some early new year shopping. Bought quite a lot of clothings back but still not enough for the year.
Sightseeing, and family bonding time:

Sucess never comes easy in life. Whether a calamity or an oasis really depends on the person leading it. I heard from one of my coursemate that his blog, and forum website always has about 10,000 hints per day within the 8 months of inception.Reflecting on my blog, which is ordinary and mundane. I just wonder how some people develop this killing acumen or flair in creativity which others lack.

Time management is another issue, why others seem to be excellent in time management thus accomplishing so much while I can only do so little? If all these can be cultivated then I really don't mind putting all my effort into it but how do I go about doing it?

What written in books is always so simple to implement but so hard to actualise when tried.

Is one fated to a worker or leader on birth or can it all be changed? Hopefully by next year end I can proudly say that I am now a more disciplined person capable of achieving more as compared to before and I can kick off this initial stopping me to enhance my blog.

To my cousin who just had her operations get well soon.

NO one knows what is installed for them in life. Maybe the world behind a simple passage maybe one that is beyond one's imagination.

The movie- Stardust intertwined reality with magic, love and suspense. I just can't help but marvel at how brillant the plot has been in keeping audience glued to the screen. The gist of the show - Love can overcome even the most treacherous evil that can else exist but the theatrical presentation is superb-set in a small town unknowingly bordering a magical dominion spells adventure.

Managing to share my desktop printer with my laptop,is a great accomplishment today. It is easy but for one's first attempt, it is a memorable achievement.

Last week was dynamic week filled with synergy.Memorable events are the buying of my first personnel laptop(HP TX1213)and the watching of Stardust with my colleagues, lastly my paternal grandfather's birthday on saturday.

Looking forward to starting school with my new gadgets and hope more excitement will come.

Momentum is gaining. I am currently restructuring my life to meet the new envisaged challenge. Is progress not intrepid enough? I am really curious for an answer which only time can tell! Camp life seems to be moving in the better traction, hopefully it will continue and I can have an answer to my paranoia -> positive progression.
