Weatherspoon Gathering

Autumn is coming to Plymouth, and it was kind of a year end gathering for all of us just in case we don't see each other coming X'mas. We meet up in Weatherspoon having a quick meal, chatting away asking each other how everyone doing. It was quite stormy outside and we are all not keen on wet weather and therefore being here is like seeking refuge from the outside. I let the pics do the...

LAN Party Scene

First time shooting me & the boys in our LAN shack at Dave's. Here is the scene of what our battlefield looks like. Lots of PC, machines, game discs, food (yeah, they are JUNK), and fragging geeks. It is the October end, and weather is getting shittier but the battlefield is heaty as a result of the dissipating heat of our machines. No women allowed as there were lots of gore, blood, sweat, frustrations (yeah, it happens to guys too) & wost of all is junk food! Our session starts at...

Kitbash: Protectobots Homage

Robotcon 2007, a Transformers event where TransMY was closely involved prior to the Transformers Movie release was truly an inspiration for me to come up with this project for to 'establish' TransMY-themed Transformers realm that was geared up for future exhibitions and conventions. This project will be a debut to the 'launch' of more locally based TF kitbashes so that more members and fans might take up, thus pursuing this sub-hobby of kitbashing/customising as a main hobby apart from just...

GDI – Scam or Real Thang?

I came across this sales pitch - "You have heard about people making a lot of money through the internet. You want to have your own internet business too! But you don't know where to start. You badly want to hit the local scene as well that the global scene big time. First off, you need a unique domain name that people can easily remember. In the internet world, domain names are very important." And the rest goes on about GDI; Global Domains International is a growing internet company that...

Guardian is the new antitheft system for Symbian Series 60 devices. Every time you switch on your mobile telephone, Guardian proceeds with authentication of the inserted sim card; if authentication fails, Guardian send a notification sms message to a previously set telephone number.

Please NOTE that all the sms sent...

It’s My Hometown Baybeh

Google Earth updated their overlay on my hometown recently, and I was so damn thankful that my hometown was mapped in their systems at last. I have been waiting for very long to be honest even since GE was released with their version 1. The map was actually a second overlay being overlapped on the existing one. The existing one only covers the east side of Bidor, that is the Chinese cemetery, part of the highway exit and all along to Kg.Poh and Gepai Falls. Whereas to the south, the first...
