There are different theme to set for your Pownce page.What I think is, it's kinda cool because the site is better looking than Twitter. HAHAHA
I have found out why the removal of "nofollow" won't work 2007-07-06 09:47:00 That's a long title. Let's get into the topic. I have just found out why I said my blog still can't "dofollow" with comment. Now it can, 100% do follow now.The problem is because I uses the iframe comment hack which installed the comment window into the same page of a post with iframe. With that kind of commenting system, even though the nofollow tag is removed, the comment shown in the iframe comment window is still nofollow because that iframe window is actually the popup of the comment window. I remove the "nofollow" tag in my blog, BUT not in the popup window. It's impossible to edit the html code for the popup window.If without using the iframe hack, your comment will be show on the same page of the post not in the iframe window. So if shown in the same page of the post, the comment will "follow" because "nofollow" tag is removed in my whole blog template.Now, it's back to the normal comment system which require you to type in a popup window. After submiting your comment, you

Why I Dump HaloScan Comment in Blogger? 2007-07-04 05:32:00 I am a bad boy. First, I use the iframe feature for adding the comment window into the same page as a post.Then I change to HaloScan comment system for it look.Now, I change back to the first one again. I received an email from Tricia who make the Do Follow blogroll and get to know that HaloScan actually have the "no follow" tag on even you have deleted it in Blogger
's HTML page.That's sucks man. Sorry guys that I told you guys the wrong information.

Dell New Laptops Release In Malaysia, XPS M1330, Inspiron 1520 2007-07-03 08:00:00 Today, I read in Malaysia
's local newspaper, The Star and surprisingly found out the Dell advertisement showing the latest upcoming model Dell XPS M1330. Before that I thought that it will be as expensive as the Sony SZ and MacBook Pro, but the price is shockingly cheaper than both of the model.At Dell's Malaysia Website, it shows that the price start from RM3,999 but in the paper is RM5k. Actually the RM5k model include 3 Years XPS Premium Service and with higher end processor. It's quite a good deal as it is light (only 1.8kg), thin, DirectX 10 graphic processing unit and with HDMI output for HDTV and more!Besides the classy looking XPS M1330, Dell also releases new Inspiron laptop with improved design, upgraded RAM, processor and intergrated 2.0 megapixels webcam into the LCD screen. So it's basically on par with the MacBook and with a cheaper price and better looking to previous model. There are 8 colors for you to choose from and to me, I like White, Black, Blue and Red one.

I Love Advertlets 2007-07-02 06:15:00 Ok, this is not a sponsored post. Continue reading why I love Advertlets. Maybe for foreigners out there, not from Malaysia may not like Advertlets because the pay out currency is in RM. Whatever it is, it's part of my money making source.Advertlets.com is an Asian blog/weblog advertising network that offers the remarkably sensible proposition of targeted, unintrusive advertising that benefits the online advertising and blogger community, as well as their readers. With Web 2.0, the Ads is prettier and cooler than other Internet ads.Looking back at my Day 39 : Earning Report, my Advertlets earning was only RM50.81, RM50 was me doing a review for Advertlets, can say a paid post then the RM0.81 was page impressions. No click. Now I realise that if you get, lets say thousand of visitors a day to your blog, just a click you will earn a lot because your page impression is high.Guess how much I earned now? I am near to cashout amount which is RM100. Make your guess, I will tell at my next ea
A Little Traffic Increase in iNicholas 2007-07-02 05:55:00 I am smiling for the for past 2 days, because there is a little traffic increase in this blog - iNicholas. So from a normal 25-50 visits per day boost to 100+ visits. Even though it is not a big number, I am happy with that.However, I still don' see reader writing comment here. FYI, dropping a comment here will get you a linkback. ^^ I am not kidding, because I have the "nofollow" tag remove, but no spam allow.The secret behind this little increase in traffic is some work done by me like submitting latest post in to social bookmarking site like del.icio.us for people to check it out (stay tune as I will guide you on how to attract more visitors to your blog with this method), reading Do Follow blog and write a comment there, ask my friends to read my site. I hope the traffic of this blog will continue like this, constant, like 100+ visitors everyday. Then later, if I really get 100+ visitors per day to this blog, then I shall set a higher target to achieve.I just signed up for Google

Get Notified 2007-07-12 06:57:00 If you don't feel like logging into you web-based email account every time you want to check mail at your desk, a notifier program can tell you at a glance if you've got new mail by alerting you straight from you desktop or taskbar.Notifier come in many forms, from shareware to desktop widgets for both Windows and Mac OS X.Two good options are Yahoo! Widgets offers a free Yahoo! Mail Check and Google has a free Gmail Notifier program. - New York Times Special Features.I think that Widget is cool looking on desktop, just like the Mac OS X's dashboard. However, if your computer have little ram like me (512mb of ram only), then I don't recommend you to use widgets, my Firefox alone already used up 18xmb of ram. I don't like lagness. So, have at least a GB of ram in your computer.As for now, I don't have a lot of email received, not a businessman or anything, so I don't need a email notifier, I can always check my email when I want to.Widgets will be cool as you can access your main

Watch E3 Live 2007-07-10 22:21:00 Do you know E3? The Electronic Entertainment Expo? This year has been downsized to E3 Business and Media Submit and not open to public. However, you still get to catch the Live Press Conference of Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo on the Internet. Still remember last year I stay up until 1am to watch the Nintendo Press Conference Live. Guess I have to do it again tomorrow. But for Microsoft Press Conference, I am lucky, it's going to start in 5 minutes time here in the morning. Here are a few sites that you can watch the press conference live from the scene at Santa Monica.Gamespot.com - One of the more reliable choices around, GameSpot always has great coverage of these events.G4TV - Not available on the site itself, G4TV will be airing the conference via television. That means you can DVR any wacky mishaps!1UP.com - Team Ziff will be broadcasting through 1UP of course! Which means only half of you will be able to load it.GameTap.com - Surprisingly, GameTap will be airing the conference a
