Re: Apple nabs India, Australia, Singapore and the Philippines as it continues its iPhone world tour

Despite Globe's 21 million subscribers in the Philippines, only 3.5% are actually post paid (700+k) so it's not much of a market.

Re: Acer Aspire One D250 now shipping in the Philippines

Abe — Mon, 11 May 2009 11:40:32 -0000

The D150 was shipped to the Philippines back in March with the Atom N280. Here's a shot of the box with specs.

I believe there was a manufacturing/packaging anomaly. In the whole batch of shipments, all colors (Blue, White, Black) had N280 except the RedRed color netbook which had N270 in it. When they checked the whole delivery, all red netbooks had N270 yet the others are N280. Even the retailers were surprised when I pointed this out to them the first time I bought the unit 2 months ago.

Re: Feedburner and Google: Bad Marriage?

Abe — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 09:38:23 -0000

I'm getting Error 500 on the Feedburner feeds of my blog and it's been 3 days. Could they be migrating to Google servers? I'm afraid Feedburner would go the same way as MeasureMap after Google bought them.

Congrats toyour new stint at FastCompany, Robert. And about the ads, as long as you have full RSS feeds, I don't think anybody here would have a pickle about it.

This is one huge reason why some Googlers shouldn't be allowed to blog.

Phaw,

Been testing an H1 Blue review unit for a month now and the CPU is a bit slow. Was running SuperPi on it and took more than half an hour to complete the 2M test.

Re: Journey to Become Pro Blogger

Abe — Sat, 20 Aug 2005 12:09:53 -0000

Congratulations on your decision. You have the traffic, the determination and the patience. You've already succeeded as a Malaysian blogger, and popular at that. Maybe it is high time for a new challenge and take the shoes of a ProBlogger.

Do share your experiences with your avid readers as they will learn from your adventures into problogging. We will watch your progess closely. :)

Re: Credit Card. No Credit Card.

Abe — Mon, 29 Aug 2005 12:32:08 -0000

Instead of your employment record (pay slips usually works), credit card companies may require self-employed or entrepreneurs to submit their latest Income Tax Return(ITR).

Your ITR will provide proof of your annual income. You can still request for your tax forms from your last company.

I wrote another explanation on the flaw of link stats (http://www.yugatech.com/blog/?p=606) about 3 months ago involving blogs in subdomains and sub-directories. Looks like the unique sites count has some bug.

I too have a 12-inch Compaq Presario B1200 but still bought an Asus Eee PC 704 which I can carry around anytime without much trouble. The rig feels just like a hardbound book.

Re: BBS05 – WordPress.com is Simply Awesome!

That's cool. But how will they earn from it? Someone's gotta pay the servers right? Did Matt mention about these hosted blogs to be laden with ads?

And when the dust settles, I think Microsoft will jump right back and make a new offer. Only this time, it's going to be lower than the original price. Jerry will come right back and grab the deal faster than he can yodel.
