Facebook mania
I must be a Facebook addict for I even use Facebook mobile on my phone when I’m not online on the PC. Facebook mobile is cool, it shows you just the basic newsfeed and not like the whole thing from the main site. By the way, I use an Opera browser on my phone, looks much better interface wise. So, Youth Star today ran a story about online social networking sites, about some young boy having numerous Friendster accounts. That’s just crazy stuff. Quantity is not quality at all. Well, although I joined and tried numerous networking sites as well, from Myspace, to Friendster, to Multiply, Powncer, Orkut etc. I…

Joost alternative for Asian movie fans
I had been sending out lots of Joost invites, but have no idea if anyone is actually getting it. Ya know, it’s beta after all. When watching movies with Joost, I usually need to click play, and then pause, and let it download the whole thing before I can actually enjoy watching it. The same cannot be said for Crunchyroll.com This website has a huge collection of Asian drama, anime and more, and it’s totally free. The movie real fast and you can view it full screen, within the browser that is. It is not extremely clear like Joost, but it is good enough for me, coz there is no…
