Windows Live Messenger for iPhone

Yep, Windows Live Messenger is now available on Apple iPhone. Launched a week ago, it took only 5 days to reach 1 million of downloads. As an ardent user of both iPhone and Messenger, I am delighted with this announcement and immediately downloaded and tried it. This is an engineered plan behind Hotmail, Messenger and Windows Live called Messenger Connect (Beta). Like any usual marketing hype, Messenger Connect is being told to us that it allows users to communicate, share, and connect with their Messenger friends on other websites with its flexible, yet prescriptive set of APIs to help create intuitive bla bla bla stuffs. Usual stuffs. In short, it’s just another form of Twitter or Facebook being attached along with internet messenger and email functions. With that being said, your statuses on your Messenger is now acting like Twitter statuses that will be updated on your Live page every time you changed it. It has been that way since before Twitter but nobody seemed to care about it until Twitter. To put it simply, Twitter is more accessible on universal browsers rather than limited availability of Windows Live Messenger application  on Windows operating systems. Well, there’s Messenger for Mac but it sucks badly that nobody bothers to use it. Exactly, what makes this Messenger is so awesome?

iPhone 3GS and other stuffs

Aifon Tri-gee-ass

Aifon Tri-gee-ass

Finally, I am getting this baby. Honestly speaking, it’s for my company of course. I ordered the phone like 2 weeks ago, sharp. Yeah, it was on my birthday which I ordered it. The guy said something like I might be getting it about two to four weeks. I got an SMS earlier in the afternoon about this thing and immediately rushed to Berjaya Times Square to pick it up. Oh, I made my order there because I was lurking around Lowyat Plaza at that time to find some Macbooks. So, yeah, around 3 PM I drove from Bangi to BTS with my friend, Amin. As we arrived at the Maxis Center there, I saw something funny which was the ‘System Offline’ notice on their desks. The grandeur service provider in Malaysia was having problem with their connection, for all over places, as the dude there said. We had to wait. While waiting, I went to Borders to look around at those mango (which eventually I bought some later). Initially, that guy said something like we might come back there around an hour later or so. But after wasting some 20 minutes at Borders, we went back to the that Maxis outlet. Still, System Offline da yo. But not long after that, that guy at the counter called me (if I am not mistaken, his name was Ahmad Hashir or something like that). He said, he can process my iPhone 3GS now. Well, it did took sometime and finally I have iPhone 3GS. At the same time, I guess that their system didn’t ‘offline’ but simply they have slow connection or some similar technical issues because I saw some of the guys could operate the stuffs albeit slow.

Press S1 to achieve victory

I bought some cool shits yesterday. Apparently it’s because of that my previous keyboard and mouse failing me so much that I nearly rage out like maniacal newfag being trolled by several unsympathetic  bitches on forum. The old keyboard was being used for about 2 years. It’s failing hard and shit because my brother loves to smoke in front of my PC and the ashes would deter it more; not only appearance but also some keys were stuck. Well, cheapo Viewsonic keyboard which was like RM 35. The next thing is my old Deathadder mouse by Razer. Cool motherfucking shit that I got after purchasing C&C3 Kane’s Wrath Limited Edition. But sadly, this black and red striped crap failed me after more than a year of usage. It’s supposed to be an expensive bitch that shouldn’t be having flaws like ‘accidental double-click’. Well, I had my time with Razer. I used to have Diamondback previously (which I replaced with DA after getting it). Currently the mouse is being used by my sister. So, what are the new shits I bought to replace them?

Microsoft Sidewinder X6

Microsoft Sidewinder X6

Well yeah, Sidewinder X6. Detachable numpad that interchangeable to the left or to the right of the keyboard. More importantly, macro keys that programmable to combine several keys together in one single button hit.

Big Spender

I bet some of you might be thinking of how big my underwear is, aye? Or rather pantsu if you prefer that way. Anyway, it’s about my bad habits in getting something I like. Something costs me money. The recent purchases of Comp Ace tankoubon and Megami Deluxe show how cruel the papers flew [...]

Luminosity

So, there, I went to 1Utama on Friday along with linkinstreet and shah_ho_nam. DaiCon is currently there from 1st to 3rd of May for EMiNA roadshow. From the roadshow itself, the selling of Chihara Minori Live in Malaysia tickets begins. Since I am not sure how many people will be there so I opted [...]

Fire in the hole!

Apple’s New Weapon

To help soldiers make sense of data from drones, satellites and ground sensors, the U.S. military now issues the iPod Touch.

Tying the hands of a person who is speaking, the Arab proverb goes, is akin to “tying his tongue.” Western soldiers in Iraq know [...]

Preconceived

I wasn’t sure why I chose the title above. Apparently I was drafting this post on Thursday after my presentation for MDeC preseed at Cyberjaya. But I was pretty lazy to finish it up. To sum up something related on the day, it was pretty hectic which gradually turned to mellow. My friend, Amin, [...]

Zombies, Tangos and Calypso

Being a contract worker and a Masters student at the same time, I am barely alive here lol. I am not saying that they’re hard but it’s pretty tiring to have all days in a week used non-stop. Apparently, I might have my weekends a little bit free after this semester ends. Oh well….
