I like dark rooms

// July 9th, 2009 // 2 Comments » // work

OoooOOooooohhh!

Man… so many people got ‘excited’ over me sitting in the dark discussion room, minding my own business, with my laptop on et cetera. Seriously, I have reasons for doing so. It’s not a habit of mine to go around looking high and low for any dark place to sit just because I feel like it (ok sometimes I do, what do you expect I’m a woman :P ).

It didn’t bug me at first even though it was such a novelty for everyone that someone is sitting in the dark in the office – oh why is she sitting there? What is she doing there? Eric said to Nic once, I’ve just patah hati. Nice one hahahaha!! So many times I patah hati la then – I must’ve been living a pathetic life. (more…)

Are you addicted yet?

If you’ve been facebooking long enough you’ll probably are addicted to it by now. Be it updating your status oh so frequently, or playing games, or keep on refreshing your home page, or refreshing your own profile page (freak!), or simply stalking other people’s profiles, or if you’re new you’ll probably be crazy adding new friends now.

I’m one of those who likes the games there. I’m quite a powerful vampire there, among my friends that is. And ever since I found out they have Bejeweled on Facebook, I’ve been playing like crazy. Recently, quizzes have become quite a thing in there. I don’t really bother, coz some of them are just bogus or plain stupid. One example, there was a quiz testing on your arabic language. The questions were sooo easy kindergarten level like and of course I got all right (only 5 of them) and the result came out that I can speak and understand the language very well…. Excuse me?? Did NOT worth my time at all. From then on I only picked the ones I deem worthy of my brain power…. scam jek.

I think I update my status quite often, not that I’m so rajin to update it there myself. It’s because I use identi.ca – more preferred way of keeping up to date among my friends/colleagues. I get the updates in my Pidgin which is far more convenient than browsing my Facebook home page, although I sometimes check to read/reply comments. I’ve blogged before about posting to multiple sites using Pidgin – read it here. Using Pidgin also I can receive Facebook chats using some plugin, thanks to Indhran for his post here. This solves my problem on not noticing the message people send to me in there. I don’t even have to open the site and login. Coolness.

p/s: I miss my camera.

IM => Identi.ca + Twitter + Facebook

// November 12th, 2008 // 7 Comments » // howto

Like everyone else, I have so many places to update my so called status/what am I doing at the moment/my rants and raves. In my case, I have Identi.ca (open source version of Twitter) + Twitter (so many following me here) + Facebook (I have 100+ friends there) status to update. You have to admit, it’s hard to keep up these days.

I’ve found a way to update all 3 using any IM (I use Pidgin). The idea is you send your status via IM to update your Identi.ca, in turn this will update your Twitter and Facebook account. Obviously you need to have accounts on all of them. After all is done, follow these steps:

On Identi.ca

  • Go to Settings page -> IM tab. Enter your Jabber/Gtalk email address
  • Go to your preferred IM. Add update@identi.ca in your buddies list
  • You’ll receive a message to validate the email address you just entered belongs to you.
  • Click on the link provided to confirm it
  • Go to Settings page -> Twitter tab. Enter your Twitter username and password
  • Check the box ‘Automatically send my notices to Twitter’. Click ‘Add’.

On Facebook

  • Login and add Twitter application. Click on ‘Allow’.
  • Enter your Twitter username and password
  • It will bring you the app page. Click on ‘+ Allow Twitter to Update Your Facebook Status’
  • ‘Allow Status Updates from Twitter?’ -> click on ‘Allow Status Updates’

Now you’re all set. Whenever you want to update your status, send the message to update@identi.ca like you would to anyone in your buddies list.Technology rocks!

Flirting with younger boys are so much fun

Reading that sentence one more time giving me all the shivers….. hehehehe….

They are gentle, very shy, hesitant but hopeful bunch of people. Sometimes they please me way beyond guys my same age capable of doing. And they are so shy when approaching. So cute. Oh well. World needs cute people.
