Windows 8 Review - SkyDrive, New UI Features and Usability

Image
Windows 8 Launched In Malaysia in November So now you've heard of Windows 8 and a series of new PC, laptop, tablets including convertibles are made available with Windows 8 operating system. I personally think that Windows 8 is released and highly linked to gadget with touch screens as most of the User Interface features are made easier to use with it. So what if you want to install Windows 8 on your current computer? Yes you can but first you should run the Windows 8 Upgrade Assistant to make sure your PC can upgrade to Windows 8 Pro before purchase (you can run it without purchasing). To upgrade to Windows 8 Pro, your PC must be running Windows XP SP3, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 Consumer Preview, or Windows 8 Release Preview. I've got myself a copy of Windows 8 and installed within just half an hour after formatted my old PC's harddisk. (Make sure you did your backup) It is really fast and all I need to do is choose what kind of setting  I want for

Fear Factor Selebriti Malaysia & House Roadshow Challenge - I Can Do It!!

Image
Fear Factor is back in Malaysia with 30 celebrities in this season!! Coming this December 29th, Astro is bringing us Malaysia's very own Fear Factor Fearless Challenge that will test human's fears to their limits! Mental vs Physical. Which one is more important? I guess you might have seen a big guy who is afraid of cockroach. He might be doing great in keeping fit but he is really weak with his mind when dealing with crawling creatures. I for myself is the opposite, although I not really good in fitness, don't have six-pack and can't run far, but I may have a strong mental for this game!! I am not afraid of height, not afraid of water, not afraid of darkness, not even afraid of ghost haha (because I haven't seen any in my life yet...) Catch eels with bare hands  Since I can catch eels with bare hands, I think I can handle with snakes, I think.....Haha I've face the fear of height by doing bungy jump at Sunway Lagoon: No. 66 was my lucky

My New Cam Nikon D800 First Time-lapse Video. Why not D600?

Nikon D800 with my always cheerful Kido Daruma Early in October 2012, I went to YL Camera @ Jaya 33 after knowing that the brand new Nikon D600 is available there. Before I reach there, Alvin (from YL Camera) message me that there is a second-hand Nikon D800 available and is in very good condition =) That made me wonder at first as I need to do a quick decision. Nikon D600 vs D800 I've read several DSLR camera reviews on the internet and the article that helped me made my decision  would be from NPhotoMag.com . It made me easier to decide which DSLR to go for in just one day. D600 is a more affordable full-frame DSLR when compared with D800. D600's weight is lighter too; However what makes me go for D800 is because of its 1/8000sec shutter speed, 1/250sec flash sync speed. These are the main reasons why I go for D800 as I don't mind carry a heavier camera that can help me produce a better image quality photos with more flexibility. Of course, the

4 Good Reasons to Study In UK

Traveled to London during London 2012 Olympic Games Ever since my first trip to London during Olympics, I have fallen very much in love with the city especially during summer. Apart from the four seasons that we don't experience in Malaysia, there are tons more stuff to explore here! Take this for example, during summer you may spot this old man feeding squirrels and birds at the park. I've always wanted to capture these kinds of photographs and that excites me to stay longer in the UK and explore this side of the world. Eventually it also made me consider whether or not I should further my studies in the UK. A Degree/Master's course in Photography I guess? =) Below are some of the good reasons why you should study in UK:   1. The UK offers you an outstanding quality of teaching, and a world-class learning experience Proof a: Over 86% of postgraduate students in the UK stated that the overall experience of their research programme met or exceeded the

Coffee @ Tippling Club Singapore Hola guys, I just came back from Singapore yesterday and I did enjoyed my trip for Mastercard Priceless Experience Launch in Singapore. Good to meet Michiekins who traveled together too. Thinking back about what I've been through in last few days were great as it was a pampering getaway with lots of new experience and exposure.  Got impressed with the new hotel located in Sentosa - Equarious Hotel. They do have luxurious room that makes you remember that great place. Imagine your hotel rooms on a tree, or just beside the sea facing the Singapore city view? It would be really awesome if I can stay overnight there. We had a very good fine-dining experience @ Tippling Club, Singapore . Tippling club is listed in World Top 50 Best bars with innovative food paired with great drinks =) I gotta say each and every dish being served was so creative, beautiful and delicious. If you have chance you must really go there for a nice dining experien

Yo guys, I am sure some of you guys have read about the article of Samsung flew bloggers halfway around the world, then threatened to leave them there and another article about France who won a contest to go to the London Olympic Games that has been shared on Facebook and Twitter over and over again. I've even got friends who are concern about me and asked if this happened to me as well. So here's a blogpost about it. The first article was about 2 bloggers being sent from India to Berlin to cover some Samsung events, end up it didn't went well and they were told that their air flights has been cancelled; The second post is about France, a female blogger who won a contest to go to London 2010 Olympic Games. I think her main concern was about being followed by creepy personnel that urging her for updates and many more tasks-to-do everyday as she get exhausted. Samsung Global Bloggers gathered up at Chelsea Football Club for our first orientation day! I, as on
