Things

Things are falling into pieces…

I mean… breaking into pieces.

I hate camps. Fuck to the “Freshmen Teambuilding Camp”. U don’t need a camp to build team. Stupid wayang.

The end is near?

Finally my contract is drawing to an end. Working from 7 to 5 at an inaccessible place where handphone isn’t available is no joke, its extreme boredom. The work aren’t exactly exciting either, but well, its all for the money.

School gonna start soon, and SMU, being the most Wayang uni out there, already has tonnes of redundant rubbish COMPULSORY lined up for us, such as team building camp (which is not the same as the orientation camp), career talk, teach you how to use library, etc etc. What a waste of precious time!

Yesterday I started working on an VB.net 2008 application that can automatically leave messages on people’s tagboard. This is the latest “marketing” trend in Singapore, popular among blog shops and such, and people are actually charging money for doing this spam. Since I have nothing better to do, I’m trying my hand on writing my own version.

Currently I have only a prototype completed with no interface and stuff. It can currently take any URL you give (e.g. http://weikiat.net/slops), and from there it will systematically seek out all links to blogspot.com sites, there the probability of having cbox in there is higher. After reaching a pre-defined number of blogs, it will then proceed to visit each of those blogs, and through a clever html coding and stimulation, automatically post any user customizable message on the tagboards.

Today I will be doing up a client version which could be sold to “advertisers”. I would probably release a free version with some limitations as well to push into the market.

I have decided that the client which i will release will not feature the auto blog-seeking feature. Rather it will connect to my server to download a list of blogshops to tag. I will retain the seeking feature for my own use only.

So if anyone is interested, watch this space. The client would probably be ready by this weekend or early next week.

PC Show 2009 Hoots

I guess this is the first IT exhibition that I spent the most in, in terms of both time and money.

I visited PC Show on Friday night after work with zombie to buy 2 MicroSD cards for my sister and her friends, and 2 1GB ram for dear’s notebook.

Then i visited PC show again on Saturday so that dear can get her $84 Buffalo external DVD-RAM writer. I also hooted a 750GB internal HDD.

Then on Sunday, I went to PC show again to hoot the EEE PC S101H Champagne Gold.

Whee, I have installed Windows 7 on my S101h with no lag and aero theme on, I will be getting 2GB RAM soon from SLS to upgrade:)

The S101H is certainly a looker. Super pretty.
