Mobile Broadband Price Comparison in Singapore

As a tech-savvy person, it is quite unbelievable (even for myself), not to be really mobile with Information Technology. The mobile broadband frenzy has captured Singapore market over the last 2 years, yet I have not done anything, such as subscribing to the services here.

I have experienced the mobile broadband services in other countries, such as Republic of Ireland (ClearWire) and China (Mobile China), and both have pretty disappointing results. For example, the transfer rate was way below acceptance level and there are frequent dropped connections that it can make everyone so frustrating.

Flatley in Britain Has Talent

In one of the show of Britain Has Talent, there is a group called Flatley, which completely amazed me with the Irish dance.

The hilarious, comedy-tickled moves have made the audience roaring out with laughter. Well, check out the clip below:

Sex – Most Popular Tag

I was browsing through my blog statistics today and found something pretty interesting about my site. There appears to be a very profound word that is associated with my blog, which seems totally irrelevant here, yet so related. How is that possible?

Michael Jackson Died at 50

Oh my god! What kind of news is this – the first thing I heard when I get into office. The legendary, King of Pop, Michael Jackson has passed away at 50! I cannot believe it, and I cannot take it like that.

His presence is felt next to almost everyone in this world. The music was brought to life by him. The moves that he creatively invented on stage surpassed all thoughts that no one could think has impacted so greatly in the world. This is a loss – to all human mankind.

I’m just terribly upset over the fact, even though this guy does not know me, that I could not longer able to appreciate his new musics. I just hope the world and history can be kinder to him.

Lost my Contacts on Mobile Phone

Due to my negligence whilst upgrading the firmware of my E71 mobile phone, I completely forgot to backup my data. Now, I completely lost my contact information.

So, all those kind souls out there, if you read this post and you know me, please send me your contact number; either SMS me, or send me an email.

Setup POP to Access NUIM Mail

It took me quite some time to figure out how to do that. Not because of its level of difficulty, but rather due to the lack of time to work on this. I’ve managed to find out how to connect to the email account of National University of Ireland, Maynooth (NUIM).

I will only provide POP3 support here (IMAP is not supported). The configurations are as follow:

• User account: your NUIM student user account
• Password: your NUIM student user password
• POP3 Server: mail.nuim.ie
• SMTP Server: mail.nuim.ie
• Authentication: disable APOP, enable SSL (both incoming and outgoing mails)

With that, you should be able to download emails directly from the server.

Note: The reason why I am doing this is to facilitate the migration of all my emails that I used NUIM account to communicate. I did not realise that NUIM is going to close down my account upon graduation. Having to manually forward the emails will really take a lot of my time. So, this actually saves me a lot of effort.

Carlos Tevez To Leave Manchester United

About 24 hours ago, Manchester United has received replies from Carlos Tevez’s adviser that he will not be extending his stay with Manchester United, despite the club offering a 5-year contract and increase his salary to make him as one of the highest paid players.

Last season, Tevez scored 15 goals, but was frustrated at continually finding himself on the bench for key games and was wary of the issue ahead of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Disappointingly, his advisers informed the club that he does not wish to continue playing for Manchester United. This is unfortunate, in my opinion, for Manchester United who has lost 2 key influential players. The worst scenario is that Tevez is also sought after by Chelsea and Manchester City. If he goes to the former, that would really be very disappointing.
