Free Your Books project

Image
I have been sideline for a while from this blog. Been busy with my new project and going to run like a headless chicken around Malaysia to promote this concept. Free Your Books project will need public to contribute their used books to us, and we will do something good with it. I believe literacy can break the cycle of poverty. Our main goal is to setup libraries around Malaysia and to get Malaysians to read for free. We will then put some of the used books at the reading corners of certain specific locations. Lastly some sellable used books will be putting to sell online in order to cover the running cost of the project and a portion of the book sales goes to charity purposes.  This will promote environmental friendly concept around Malaysia with used books donated will not ended at landfill or storage boxes. It is kind of new concept for Malaysia and I think most of the Malaysians will be curious on what we are doing right now. Statistic show that we, Malaysians seldom have

Google’s Chrome App Launcher

Image
Window users can now download google Chrome app Launcher from google webstore , giving you some instant access to common web-based google service that you added into your google account for google chrome. This menu will be display if you run the launcher you installed at your desktop.  I can see google chrome direction is to drive users using their product and web service by 3 rd party from desktop and in future any device for that as well. This was originally built for Chrome OS as a way of promoting Google’s own services and replicating some of the functionality found in the taskbar or dock of a traditional desktop operating system. I am not a big fans of native window apps, in fact have a web app launcher will be a first step closer to cloud-base apps setup. I am wondering when people will choose chrome apps over native windows apps. I am looking forward and hope google chrome can take over native apps in mobile and tablet with more ideas coming in for that.

Life changing moment

For more than 10 years, I have been working in IT field. If you were to ask me what I had for breakfast yesterday, I probably tell you the same thing = glass of coffee and some biscuits, and sometimes I switched to Nasi Lemak or Roti Canai. Nothing been change since day one of my working life. Next month will be my life changing month, as I decided to do something not related to IT! I will start a social organization by my own, and yes!  by my own self. Some questions keep coming to me, as some of my colleague curious on my movement and even ask me on my next destination. And when they learnt about my decision, they are shocked and told me it is a brave decision to make. Just a brief understanding my job, I am currently worked as software development manager which have about 30 staff reporting to me. Doing alright? For me, I am not doing any better than others. I always have a crazy thought that I always wanted to make more impact to society and community. So, glad that I am w

Full marathon – one of my goals?

You might know or don’t know that distance for full marathon is 42.195 KM and I am sure people been asking why 42.195 KM. I not having any answer for this as well, but I think it is because of the conversion from imperial units to the metric system. I am kind of enjoying running now, but not sure if I can survive 21km if I am going to try one. I still doubt about this and not to mention full marathon, but one day I will still working very hard to get this achieve. I will enjoy running is always the first time for me to keep my running activities rolling. Most participants do not run a marathon to win. More important for most runners are going for their personal finish time, though some runners just want to finish and achieve their own goal. I think I am type of participants just to join and get myself aware that I can run like a pro as well. :D Stay healthy is always my ultimate goal which never been replace by any others. "Goals are not only absolutely necessary to m

Life Purpose: Impact You Want To Create With Your Life

Life Purpose. hmmm…what a word. This year seem like a roller coaster year for me. The month before I was happily enjoyed my Europe trip, now I am back to normal routine and serve my final month of the employment for this company. The reason of the decision is mainly because I am finding some impact I can make with my life. I always wanted to get myself doing something meaningful for the community, and been involve in some charity work. But this is never be enough if I never fully focus on this and gets some impact to community. I am thinking to live your life meaningful; you should have defined your impact with your life.   Just tell some story about my career so far, I am in a private sector for the past 10 years plus and still not sure if I made some impact to the community and better society. I never failed in delivering projects in IT sector, and been working with my full force of energy and getting things done accordingly. Despite always deliver positive impact on the liv

I get myself running!

I think it is time to share a little bit of true story from mine, before and after I get myself kicking with more running activities. Even I started not long ago like just a year, but I think can proudly recommend running to everyone. This story should be back to 5 years ago. I have come across some friend who always went for run and I don’t really understand why they can keep running, and I kept pushing away with some lame excuse which I don’t have much time for these target-less activity. That was a time when I still feel running is a boring thing to do in this world. “You just do nothing, but run.” 2 Years later, I started to have some run just to have a taste on the feeling for running. I was pushed by the weight I had to get myself a try on running, and it end up not positive as it is hard for me to understand on why people can enjoy running that time. This is partly because of my weight and I don’t really know how to enjoy run, 1KM considered a hard job for me. Don’t lau
