Google’s Chrome App Launcher

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 3rd 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.

Traveling is a necessity of life

Everyone loves traveling the world, and it’s no exception for me! I can say travel is about refreshing the mind and finding new inspirations in life. As it can be describe for finding new perspective in life. I love traveling, but I think not in group tour. As I find it difficult to catch up in term of flexibility and freedom. When I travel, I prefer doing it alone or with a few companions as it gives me the freedom and flexibility to do what I want. I enjoy travel like a travellers, this allow me to learn more on how local people in particular location live their life differently and got a chance to learn more on their view about many things. Travel make me feel like myself and become more humble and not particular with certain things which might caused us do something harmful to environment and other people.  Just done my Europe trips last month, and i am going to plan more in near future. Hope I no need to wait for so long on my next trip.  Really looking forward o...

Sir Alex Ferguson in my memory

In 1990, when I came to the age that know football was a wonderful sport. I started to learn on 2 wonderful football clubs (Manchester United and Kedah FC) in this world which inspired me on personal hobby in football. Let’s talk about Kedah before we get into Manchester United. Kedah won 1990 Malaysia cup and we won Malaysia League by 1992, and I was very amazed with the team performance and sooner become sad on the match-fixing scandal which happen in Malaysia. By then I switched my love to focus on Manchester United and kept my hobby alive till today. My loves to football still stay strong with Manchester United styed clean with the team spirit that formed in this team. I still remember when SAF sold Dutch central defender Jaap Stam was sold to Lazio in 2001, and that was the time I hated SAF the most because I worried the team will lost in the year with lost one of the finest defenders in the world and eventually lost the league title on the year. But he manag...

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...
