WiMAX vs other Broadbands
How many types of Broadband services do we have now in the Klang Valley. Obviously there are some variations and different companies offering different kinds of packages. Here’s a comparison of some basic offers and what WiMAX can possibly offer in days to come. I’m comparing based on Broadband of 1Mbps to avoid confusion, since different companies offer all kinds of speed limits. 1) Streamyx Does majority of people in Klang Valley use Streamyx? I think so, since we think it is being monopolised by them. The problem with Streamyx is users need to pay for the broadband and the phoneline separately, so when add up together, it’s not cheap.…

A new WiMAX lifestyle
WiMAX, sounds like something that’s wide and maximum? Truth be told, I only heard of this term today, and it really stands for something long and challenging to remember, that is, Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access. It’s based on the IEEE 802.16 Air Interface Standard, compared to 802.11 currently used for WIFI.

Crossing crossing

It’s Free, It’s Fun, It’s Full of Surprises
I recently joined Postcrossing to exchange postcards from around the world. It’s a great thing postcards from Malaysia to anywhere in the world is priced at a standard RM0.50. That’s really cheap compared to many other countries. Well, so far I’ve sent out 3 postcards, to Finland, Czech Republic, and USA, I guess my cards are having a good time travelling to where I’ve never been myself! Anyways, this made me remember Bookcrossing.com. I joined bookcrossing back in 2004. At that time, I received a free book to start off, but I never really register or release any books. Maybe because I really didn’t have many books around. Well, today…
