Following up my last thought (or a dream for now), my second plan will involve a big work on my two main blogs. There were several consideration for this decision. I need to focus on something. I can’t maintain two main blogs at the same time. I don’t have the money to pay for another [...]

Everyone who has known me quite well, should also know that I run several blogs now. Most of them are in an unknown hiatus period. I know. I’m not proud of it. But I have to pay the bills (yeah, the classic reason) by working 9 to 5 which consume most of my daily life [...]

I can only wish you all well and never lose hope.

I knew about Angkor Photography Festival from Flickr thanks to Stuart Isett who’ve been supplying the photos into Flickr [...]

I have no idea of who she is. In fact, I’ve never heard of her. Not until I saw a movie. Piglet’s Big Movie. I love Pooh and friends but I’ve never get the chance to follow all the stories. I might have to buy one of Alan Alexander Milne’s books to know them better. [...]

I’ve been using shortstat for a while now. Not quite spectacular like the others (perhaps) but it’s enough for me. I can get to know the referrers to my blog here. I can also get the number of hits and unique visitors each day. The numbers may vary between different stat program but it’s not [...]
