Trying out Google multiple logins
A bit tight with a little a page-full of limitations. It’s fine for all except for the obsessive-compulsive :) . But I just need that other one account too, pretty please?
Strike three !!
Twottling
We’ve heard ISP’s limitting off bandwidth from paying users, effectively saying like, “Pay $2 for free flow of soft drink. Oh, btw, the paper cup is made of mahjong paper.” But how do you react when the service is initially free?
Twitter started to grow brains after realizing that they has just become the biggest ircop ever and like the their predecessors before, keeping fludderz at bay is really a PITA. API calls cap is reduced, and was done at the best of all times, the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Timeline flows as loud as the vuvuzelas. Truthfully, this is the best time to fine tune the transaction loads and determine the optimum upper limit count of the Twitter API call. See, fludderz are OK, and you can basicly /ignore them, but traffic is still traffic.
But its free, so why rant about it?
Exactly. You shouldn’t. Nor should I. Its when you become attached to it and start to have a false sense of belonging to the site, you will start to think that the site also owes you. But among these SNS’s, be aware. Facebook really OWNS you! LOL. No, seriously… Bwahahahahaha.
OK, let shut my mouth for a minute and put on my thinking cap. Actually its a good move by Twitter to actually implement a real floating limit (not a bogus limit where it is high enough where 95% of the users will never reach), since it enforces Twitter clients to be more remindful of their calls. This in turn reduces traffic and to an extent, battery life of your mobiles or yuiPhones. For desktop users, use Tweetdeck‘s sliders to balance the intervals between the different API calls (although I don’t use it due to the no Air/.NET policy on my PC). I wish Twit and Seesmic follows. One minute is up.
And so. In the spirit of Let this be a moment in cyberspace, where I name this twitter-api-limit-verb, “twottling”. Use it at your own discretion. And never on an excretion.
I’m a bit jolly tonight due to cough pills. On that bombshell, I wish you good night!!

To all my loyal fans, fear not! I am still alive!
Compiling random pics of whatever around me and will post it over the weekend. 8C (for consumption out of Facebook), figures, food etc.
Was a bit lost at where to start. Got a new mobile to accompany my travel to the workplace; Still without a TV; Still without a sofa; Still on-call on some weekends; Not much good things lately. Come to think of it, minus the teh tarik sessions and the random drives, life is not that different than it was in KL. A good friend went back to Malaysia, and lesser time hanging out for me.
Even the blokes in KL are having more fun meeting Chihara Minori at Daicon. ( See the review at kusakabemisao.com ) Am not that of a hardcore ani-wota but its enough to get me burn with jealousy.
Maybe I burnt more fuel than I should a few months back, so maybe its time to slow down, take a breather and gather momentum. Have to learn how to relax properly, efficiently. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Lot of catching up with work too though.
That is life I guess. Change is due. 頑張れ俺！！ﾌｧｲﾄｫ*:.｡..｡.:*･ﾟ(n‘∀‘)ηﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*!!!☆
Passenger seat still vacant. –sigh–
Jolly camaraderie
No lottery won. No strings attached. No fine prints. Just some happy bellies.
And some crackling fireworks after the feast.
They all went back inside for blackjack, betting on C4′s sirap-oren.

Some 20plus hungry vultures gathered at Azzad’s on Saturday, sharing their catch of the day. Har har har. Give any hotel/restaurant buffet and they can never match the variety and volume that we had that day. Grilled mutton, BBQ chicken, great pizza, birthday cake, puddings, tofu and crab meat soup, kerang bakar, jagung bakar, macaroni, roti john, murtabak, list just goes on. Great hosts, jolly crowd, (Zaha lain kali bawak Sony α, sian Munzir sorang).
Last week was tiring, with 4 buka puasa gatherings in a row. I realized I could not eat as much as before. Partly because of self-imposed meal limit of 2 dishes and very minimal kuih and in-betweens. Lost some weight too. I wish I can maintain the pace after Ramadhan.
Come Wednesday and this will be the last week fasting. Time flies so fast lah these days. But it just doesn’t apply during the period when you are in training from 9am to 6pm :) … Well, at least my attention span is getting better.
Happy fasting!
And don’t buy food when you’re hungry. Very dangerous for the world economy.
