One Blog or More Blogs

I always come across lots of bloggers, who are really BLOGGERS by professional, where they own many blogs. For example, they have blog on cooking tips, rants on daily parenting, about technology, about ANYTHING in the world. In fact, recently I heard of one blogger who achieved a PR6 for his blog within just 6 months blogging and sold it for $10K.

Can I be one of them today? One Talk or More Talk?

The Art of Scrapbooking

Online Scrapbooking is really time consuming, for yesterday whole day, I have been playing with it and did nothing else. But can really get addicted one…haha…..with the pasting of the designs, combining on the different background, color, working with special effects on the photos…haha….so shiok one lar….if wanna venture further, can even try to mix match with the combinations from different download……

But of course, my skills get better each time when I scrap. The online thing is that I need to scrap in peace, otherwise no ideas will come out from my head.

FireFox Or IE

Ever since i got started blog hopping, i find lots of my time got wasted with waiting for pages to move. Not only I had problem waiting for sites to load, which is very very slow, i can’t open other site as well as my whole computer got hang. Not sure if u all face this problem like me.

Another culprit i suspect is my Microsoft Office. I got the latest version, with those very nice updated buttons instead of scroll down menu, but each time i open one file, it is like taking ages to open…really so mad at those new tech liao… Am thinking to reinstall the older version , since many people can’t seem to open the file i send to them also.

Blogger or Wordpress

I am still wondering at the moment, should I bring privatise this blog by doing my own hosting. I can either have my own hosting on blogger or pay for one, migrating De'Talk using the Wordpress plateform.

If were to compare these two, I prefer the interface of Wordpress as there are more flexibility on blog management. On the other hand, I prefer Blogger for the less trouble on upgrading, managing it from time to time. Should I, use Blogger or Wordpress? Will wait and see how it goes. For the time being, De'Talk shall remains here.

RSS Feed

Previously I spend lots of time hopping around blogs by opening the blogs that I wanna catch up with, one by one. It was only when I was hopping to to some other sites, i found this thing called googlereader, a type of RSS feed.

By adding blogs that I enjoy reading, it is easier to read only the updated blog of all the blogs I add into my feeder. Really saves time on blog hopping.

Why Blog?

Often in blog, we visit each other’s website, either friends we know and met before, or new friends from our old friends, or new found friends that have the same interest thru blog world.

Previously i was using only daily email among friends. Weakness of using emails, is that we often delete our old mails to make space for new mails, and it becomes messy and uncategorized.

Must really salute or thanks to the one who invented this wonderful tool called “blog” as by visiting each other’s site, can get to update what’s happening in that friend that we care. and it also let us categorize our post, or rather daily thoughts nicely. It serve also as a nice dairy and our sweet memories.

However, when i visit a blog, first thing that i want to know is knowing more about the writer, at least name or how he or she looks like (it just give me a personal feeling that at least i can imagine who i am writing to). However some writers prefer to keep their identity ( maybe to create curiosity from people who are curious like me?) Regardless which way, i respect them for its their personal choice .

The Art of Meditation

I was reading this book, Ancient Tool for Personal Transformation by Dr.Tim Ong, my meditator guide. I have been learning how to meditate, aware that meditation can bring benefits to one (Will go into types of meditation more details later).

In this article, what catches my attention is how our brain waves are like. Of course, the researchers has found that regular meditator has more frequent brain waves in Alpha range as compare to non-meditators. Notice some people tends to be the calmer type, some tends to get angry easily, and here, it explains exactly what kind of our brain waves are like. So what are yours like ?
