Yahoo! is not so Yahoo!

Once, Yahoo was the only search engine I knew before I could even pronounce “search engine”. Back in year 1990’ when I first attempt to log into internet, Yahoo! was the answer to all my questions. I was the very first to online among my friends and even my hometown community, I got to expose to the IT world far earlier than the others simply thanks to my uncle’s profession as an IT specialist.

For me, internet was the place to look for my favorite celebrities during that time. When my uncle tried to print his stock market reports from the internet, I printed a lot of celebrities’ photo to show off in front of friends. Yahoo was the only site I knew and used for celebrities searching. Kakaka! Yahoo sounds great to me, when I was still a little kid, I perceived the meaning of Yahoo! as Huray! Or Yahuu!!

At the age of 15-16, I was told that there was a better search engine than Yahoo!, which is the biggest player now – Google! Since the busy-body characteristic is born in my blood, I tried Google, then Gmail and almost every g-products before others. Until today, I’m still a loyal google fans, I’ve always been a white mouse of google, I started fall in love with Google’s products since long ago, moreover, there are all free! I think the latest google chrome somehow hypnotizing me to stop using other search engines!

Today, Yahoo! is seriously no longer so Yahoo! The co-founder and CEO gonna step down soon, rumor claiming the company gonna cut of 1,500 jobs next month and their “badwill” is taking over their goodwill! Forbes.com made an article of Yahoo!'s Five Biggest Mistakes.

Interesting Gadget – A sperm drive!

TwoMAds.com has really made me mad! My brain recently is really filled with mad ideas of how to promote the site. Reading some mad sites is one of the best ways for me to get mad and crazy inspirations. 

While reading thru foolishgadgets.com, this sperm drive made me spent some time thinking why such a simple gadget could excite me so much huh? It’s nothing more than just a normal pen drive with a sperm skin! Nothing special! Yet, it is much better than those penguin, cartoon, or twitty covers! 

Read full article regarding to this sperm drive here  

Sometime, normal item or idea could be extraordinary once we add on some innovative element inside. TwoMAds.com is exactly the same, we do not need complicated features, nor advance applications. Our idea is simple, Two Million Ads by Two Madness! It’s a 10% copied cat work and 90% value added site that possibly excites a small portion of internet population on this world!

Who knows one day TwoMAds.com will be giving out pen*s pendrive?! Lol Never knows ya!

Pursuing for success is just like dating a girl!

Pursuing for success is just like dating a girl!

Not just once, but I was told many many MANY times by most of the successful people that pursuing success is nothing much different like dating a girl! First, you need to be passionate and totally obsessed by her, and then you shall be courage to get closer with her and take time to build up intimate relationship with her, date her, spending more time with her! Become the outstanding one and the different one from the others and make her notice you more than the others. Eventually she will prefer you better than the others! Finally be courage again to date her and propose to her!

Worst to worst, she might just say NO, and you lose nothing! Just go for the next one! There are plenty of opportunities out there for us to grab! (This is just an example, I’m very loyal to my girl friend!) But what if she says:”YES”! You see, every successful people telling me the same story. “Saying is easier than done” this is how most of the people replies, and from my understanding, that’s why most people fail! And this is what distinguishes a successful person from most of us. And this is why successful people are telling me the things that most people do not tell me.

Of cause it is not easy and only certain people could get what they want! Nothing comes easily! We might need to use a lot of effort and time to achieve something we dun even know if we could ever get. In the end, whether get it or not, we have tried our best and better than just saying:” I should have!” Ya~ ya~ ya~ I should have born in those arab royal blood if I should have!

Yesterday, joining the GEW event has prompted me a chance to meet with a lot of corporate figures, all of them were outstanding. However the one who got most of our (Alex and me) attention was Richard Azlan! He said the same thing to us and yesterday alone he had became a very good mentor to us. He taught us what to do in a function like yesterday! He is one of the best speakers I ever meet in my life.

My UNI memories

Darn! (what a bad word to start, but IT’S DARN DARM!)

When browsing thru friends’ blog, I bumped into Anthony Lim’s [DuHuKu’s E-FaŔM], and at the right bottom of his blog, there I found a terrible video!

This video reminded me my 3 awful year-end nights’ performances, ALL 3 YEARS! In the 1st year, instead of performing as prince or hero, I was to put on two oranges in front of my chest… Ya, oranges… in front of my chest, so you should know what kind of character I needed to act? No, you are wrong! Not just a girl, but a bitch! A bitch who was trying to tackle people’s boyfriend! Poor my bro, Chris was the “girl” that “her” boyfriend was tackled by me… HAHAHA! But in the end… I forgot whether I was dumped or run away after got a “better choice”! My pals, please remind me!

Then, 2nd year was a better one! Instead of solid oranges, I got a much softer replacement to be placed in front of the chest! Balloons was the replacement! …. But that year was better, because now I have more companies! Beside Chris, balloons were on almost everyone’s chest! WAKAKAKAK! Chris and me was the two stupid and ugly sisters of in this time, not-so-pretty punya “Cinderella” – Richard! I wonder if we have the video clip of that performance!

Final year! Reminded me when I was told by Jessica, “James a, I don’t care a, u better gao dim the performance!” Pity Jessica, being someone like the class rap, had to settle many things for the final year prom night, I also forced to accept the so called “mission”! Like always, I drag drag drag and drag, until dunno the few days before that night! Surprisingly, actually all our friends are all”義氣仔女”, sorry la, I couldn’t find the best word to describe the above Chinese term! By nearest meaning, it meant very loyal to friendship lor! Most of them give face and joined us to perform, even though knowing it gonna be something awful! Lol! Yeah, not disappointed, we were awful, but in just 2 days time, all of us were prepared to rock the stage! Kakaka, although not very professional, but we made it. REMEMBER, some of them have never perform nor be on stage before, and WE MADE IT!



Although IT WAS AWFUL, but really enjoyable! Great moment as well! lol

I'm learning thru TwoMAds.com!

TwoMAds.com is growing! We had an excellent result from TwoMAds.com after it’s officially soft launched for 3 days! In just 3 days time, the hits rate for TwoMAds.com has almost reaching 19,000! As time being, my blog... is only 1,270 hits for almost half of a year! sad....

TwoMAds.com (3 days old)

VS

churekie.blogspot.com (almost 1/2 year!) T.T

I think this is quite good since we are not even properly spider-ed by google, or crawled by others search engine! Even Alexa has yet to rate us!

One of our advertisers, the association of backpacker Malaysia was so surprised that our website has brought him some businesses after our launch!

However, like raising up a baby, making TwoMAds.com happens is not something easy! As most of the business men said to us:”success doesn’t come easily, you’re definitely not successful yet if you have not suffered enough!”

TwoMAds.com has given me a lot of chances to meet just anybody! The interesting part is, always, we got to meet SOMEBODY! These people are very successful and most of the time, they are the very good mentors to me. These people are ranging from one year older than me to my father’s age, and even to playboy’s founder – Hef’s age!

Spending an hour or more time chatting with them had really earned me a lot of priceless knowledge! Knowledge and information that so simple and most people has failed to notice and follow! They love to help and share their experience with us! From financial management, corporate stories, human resource management, sales experience, picking up girls to XXX topics!

They simply love to share!

Most of the time, these people share the identical characteristics, regardless how powerful and how wealthy they are, they are very humble and helpful! One uncle actually pointed out that the youngsters nowadays failed to implant these characteristics, and so they will definitely share the similar ending in their life – if they were to fall down, it’s unlikely or it’s very very difficult for them to stand out and keep on walking, let alone running!!

What I understand from them was - Nothing comes easily, if something comes too easy, be careful that the worse is always ahead! We must always be prepared to face the upcoming challenges, there is no such thing as you are always in the safe zone!

a message from me

A Picture Tells a Thousand Words!

I totally disagree!

In fact! In my opinion, a picture tells a ZILLION words!

Many things had happened in the past few months!

One of the reason why I became more lazy to blog was after my last N70 pc suites had something sot sot! YA, I could hardly transfer the pictures taken by the phone into my pc. When I couldn’t show the picture, I might as well dun blog!

Then my hand phone itself became sot sot! And I hardly took pictures after that. Last month, something even more terrible happened, you wouldn’t want the same thing happens in your life! NEVER! So, please do what I gonna suggest after or you gonna cry like me!

Wat happened next was – all my files, pictures, data, whatever, whichever in my hard disk, GONE TOGETHER with the “geekkkk gekkkk… gekkkk gekkk…” sound from the harddisk! Haiz… So.. you better make a copy of whatever you have, SERIOUSLY! Because that could happen just like that!

Even worse than a tsunami, tsunami actually happens after earth quake, but this is not! You would never know when your hard disk gonna crash! There's no signal from your hard disk "hey buddy! you idiot dunno how to take care of me! i about to die!!!!"

So the moral is MAKE A COPY OF whatever you have!

All my pictures were gone! Ya! ALL! Whatever you could think of, IS GONE! As for a short-term memory man like me, the crash of my harddisk is just like the crash of my brain! Haiz… Better take good care with your hard disk!

Another interesting invention by TwoMAds!

I've always interested in interesting inventions!
The creation of TwoMAds is interesting, right?! ^^
Buying a Pickup truck at my age is something interesting as well!
Getting a Mad partner (Alex) to start TwoMads is also interesting!

Now we have our first interesting invention - TwoMAds flyer!


See our TwoMAds first flyer on facebook.

Ok, the interesting part of this invention was how we invented the idea. The initial idea was nothing new, we tought of using simple name card and distribute them just like that, and thanks to my girlfriend, she said to me, "don't you think it's very much like along (loan shark aka money lender) in Malaysia distributing their cards?"

Ya... she was so right! Although we knew our card was more outstanding,we had spot UV on our card, like flash flash one like tat! lol but still, it probably look like a along with higher budget of advertising!

So... we had another meeting at a mamak beside a cyber cafe. I suggested to Alex why not we put a paper behind it! and BOOM! our idea became more materialized! We had to cut out slots for the card!

Then he suggested the design and in that night it self, the new interesting invention was born! We don't mind the idea is being use someday and hopefully this idea will evolves to something better! lol, and if don't mind, give us some credit on it~

Due to budget constrain, we distributed the flyers ourselves! Our experience was interesting! We were stopped by a security guard while distributing in a university ! And you know what?! due to our intelligent and wide connection, I had got my friends' help to get us out from his tirdy hand! sorry to tell you *the university*, next time do ask to verify my ic, or else,i'll still be able to get rid! LOL

*but the guard was a nice guy, he was just trying to do his job!*

distributing flyers under the very very very hot sun is not something you'll want toenjoy, but never mind, seeing most of our creative invention being treated nicely,the effort was worthly! but there are some who threw away our flyers as well,to them... please save our environment la, just circulate it or recycle it! haiz...
it's ok that you dun appreciate creativity, but at least appreciate paper!

*i only started to appreciate paper since then!*
