Hi all,

I’m again sorry for the lack of update. :p

Now I’m back (again!) to blogging because I was a bit amazed this morning been told that this blog is labeled #2 most influential blog in Malaysia.

Basically, the way Gaman ranked the blogs is based on Technorati ranking. This blog is ranked 604 in Technorati at the moment. Therefore, after reading his post I don’t feel surprise this blog ranked so high in Gaman’s chart as long as only Technorati ranking is taken into account.

Is my blog influential? I suppose many of you doubt about it, me too. Anyway, this is Gaman’s chart and he has his own explanation to how he defines “influential”. Anyway, one thing I’m sure is that this chart will be a good foundation for any future research on Malaysian blogs.

Now I seem to have motivation to blog more often, since I’m so “influential“. Haha…

This post is also a friendly plug in a way to appreciate the effort and time Gaman (owner of Sabahan.com) has put in to compile the list of the top 50. Kudos to him!

The quest in making laptops into thinner size with longer lasting battery life has gone one step further as LED backlighting, a new technique for LCD illumination, will be used in new Apple and HP laptops’ LCD screen. Furthermore, with LED backlight LCD screen produces better color saturation and distributes backlight more evenly than the ordinary LCD most laptops are currently using.

Apple and HP are among the few laptop manufacturers that will be releasing LED backlit laptops in Q2 of 2007, while Sony and NEC already have their LED backlit laptops available in the market though in a limited range of laptop models.

Anyway, as expected LED Backlit Laptop will have brightness ratings of over 1,680cd/m² as compared to most laptop nowadays are only having brightness rated for 200-400cd/m².

Beware if anyone of you downloaded a cracked version of the forthcoming Windows Vista from any online sources, including BitTorrent.

Quoted:
The program claims to be a “crack” designed to unlock pirated copies of Vista, which was made available to Microsoft’s volume licensing customers last week.

The cracked file named “Windows Vista All Versions Activation 21.11.06” actually contains a password-stealing trojan horse known as Trojan-PSW.Win32.LdPinch.aze.

Kaspersky is one of the antivirus applications manage to detect the trojan horse, but not Norton Antivirus and Eset’s NOD32, says the security researchers. So, be extra careful if you are using any of these 2 antivirus.

Hey guys,

Not sure have you tried this cool tool from Google (yes, again!) called Google Set.

It’s a tool which you key-in a few related terms, then Google Set will return a few more related terms to you. It’s amazing !

I tried 3 terms like eyes, nose, ears (which happened to appear on the face), it return some other terms like cheeks, mouth, hair etc.

Enjoy playing with it, guys. :)
