Wireless problem solved

22 Nov 2007 - Under General, Tech Talk By Mandrake

Over the past few days, my wireless at home was facing major disconnection problem. It became like that suddenly after quite a well of normal usage.
At first I thought its my computer’s driver problem so I updated it. But the problem still persist. Finally, I decided to change the channel that the wifi was […]

Hosting

10 Nov 2007 - Under Tech Talk By Mandrake

When it comes to hosting, I had a bad experience before. Before we settled with this current server for Liquidblade, we had a problem with the previous one. If you want to read about it, just browse thru my archive. I just did a search using MSN Live, Yahoo! and Google. My review of them […]

Google Tweaked their algorith?

16 May 2007 - Under General, Tech Talk By Mandrake

This is bad.. seems like Google tweaked their search algorithm. Some of the stuff that people searched will have my entries at the top 5. Now its almost nowhere.
My pagerank dropped from 5 to 4, I wonder why too..
sigh..

If you want to see what I am doing, add me to your twitter.

Goodbye Streetdirectory

22 Mar 2007 - Under General, Interesting Links, Tech Talk By Mandrake

Well, not totally goodbye, but more or less..
Currently, besides Streetdirectory.com, the other organization with street map of Singapore is LTA.
Streetdirectory has a service where they give you the direction. You can either opt for the free (ad sponsored) or paid service ($0.60) per trip.
It tells you approximately how long it takes and stuff like […]

Anti Virus

21 Feb 2007 - Under General, Tech Talk By Mandrake

My Norton Anti Virus is expiring in about 7 days. I’ve been using Norton Anti-virus for a long time. I think because previously I could get the educational version and its much cheaper than the normal retail version.
However, technology has advanced to such a stage that even free, open-sourced antivirus software are widely available now. […]

utorrent

When BitTorrent first came out, I was dubious about the technology. I was wondering what I can do with this technology.
Now, it was reported that 2/3 of the Internet traffic was caused by bittorrent transfer. Most of them are pirated stuff like music, movies and other stuff. There are also legal stuff like free music, […]

MP3 and MP4 players galore

28 Aug 2006 - Under General, Tech Talk By Mandrake

My boss just passed me a bunch of mp3/mp4 players to test. I am supposed to test it out these few weeks by bringing it around and just use it normally.
The task is to find out how long these cheap players will last. Would it spoil easily? how long the battery last?
I saw a few […]

Chinese shows

28 May 2006 - Under General, Tech Talk By Mandrake

Blurry Angel introduced me to this application that lets me watch various Chinese entertainment from off the net. At any one time, there are like at least 50 channels of Chinese programs running concurrently.
I am not sure how they stream it to cater to the demand but so far so good. Although the pictures are […]

Reblog

21 Mar 2006 - Under General, Tech Talk By Mandrake

I used to use Feedburner to read all my RSS subscriptions. Feedburner is not free and its quiet good. The interface is a bit like Outlook Express so most people shouldn’t have problem with it. The memory footprint is also not that high.
I tried bloglines but I find it quite slow. I don’t really […]
