Muyandroid(Bukan nama sebenar)
Semenjak dua menjak ni, aku nyer mood dalam barang-barang gadget dah datang balek. Mungkin aku tension sket agaknya. Selalu orang kalau tension diorang lepaskan dengan makan ke, main sports ke(dua dua aku buat gak ni) tapi aku rase aku cam nak beli gadget baru je….apa yang aku nak terbeli ni nanti aku cerita lagi, tapi apa yang aku nak cakap kali ni adalah tentang nama. Bukan nama baby baru, bukan nama kedai, bukan nama website atau business…..tapi nama timangan gadget anda.
Ader sorang kawan aku ni, dia memang kaki gadget(solo lagi ni). Dia yang start namakan gadget-gadget ni. last-last aku pon rase seronok nak ikut. So ari ni aku nak namakan gadget aku yang pertama Muyandroid.(cara nama ni pun aku tiru gak, takper di member aku).
Si Muyandroid ni sebenarnya aku nyer Android smart phone dari HTC(HTC tattoo). Kalau korang tau HTC tattoo ni phone android yang paling murah masa aku beli dulu la. Aku malas nak citer pnajang lebar pasal android ni korang bleh tanya Mr G akalu nak tau. Tapi aku rase saper yang macam Geek sket mesti dah tau benda ni.
Kesimpulannya, phone ni agak ok untuk digunakan dengan function yang pelbagai. Kalau korang ader account 3G, memang best jugak la phone ni. Cumer mungkin tak sehebat maner bagi diorang yang kaki gadget. kat bawah ni aku nyer overall comment.
Pros: Design yang simple dan tak besar sangat. Fuction yang pelbagai(berbaloi)
Cons: Camera yang tak best sangat, no auto focus and tak shake friendly. Support yang lembab(software upagrade) dari HTC

Business and I : Part 2 – Early Cyber Ventures
Beginning of the year 2004, the so call online business started to boom like mushrooms in Malaysia. Business involving e-books, prepaid, clicking and watching advertisement and MLM flooding Malaysia’s world of cyber like hell. During that time, email was the main media in spreading this kind of information. From small to big amount of investment had been made by people of Malaysia in order to join this great hype, and that does not exclude me.
I had tried so many programs available in the Internet and all was up to the free version only(reading email, watching ads,etc). Non was a success. Later, I decided to try a paid version. The first paid program I’d join was a MLM base ebooks selling program. It was about RM40 in order to join the program. We will be given our own website in order to promote our e-books. I’d tried so hard to promote my first venture, from classified, email, forums and even flyers(did not materialize). I had manage to get quite a number of downlines, but the not so easy part is to ask them to join as a paid members. Before I manage to make anybody a paid member, the website of this program suddenly disappeared and history. Below is one example of the ads that I used to post which I manage to dig back from the internet
Talking about own website, I remember starting my first website using Geocities free service during my Universty days(2000). My first website was called cerihik.com which a portal for people to submit thier stories to be publish on the Internet. I would say it maybe among the first of its kind in malaysia at that time but unfortunately I did not take it seriously and I stop maintaining the website after about a year in operation.(can believe ka this…up to you).below is a snapshot of my Intro page
From the power of Internet you can view my first website here.
After so many failures, I was then introduced to a forum which full of information on online busines, Digital Point Forum. Here is the place i learn a lot about Internet, website, ecommerce, Graphic design, ebay, paypal,etc. Here is the point were I start to get involved in a real online business. Will be contine……….

Business and I : Part 1 – The beginning
Business never came to be one of my passion until the year 2004. That year was a new experience for me at that time. Everything is new, I just past one year of my marriage, I’m waiting for my first son to be born and I’m looking forward for new job. Before this, to me business was meaningless. Probably, because non of family members was actively involved in business. When I was still a little kid, my mother used to sell layered cakes during Hari Raya. She even took orders for custom made curtains at the same time. But all this was just something that my mother do out of her passion and to kill the time at home. But most people say, Hey, that is how usually a business started off, but then unfortunately having the same situation of not having anybody in the family the spirit of business at that time, my mother somehow stop doing it at one time.
Back to my business experience, its all started when my wife bought me a present. It was a digital Casio watch, a digital “aspal” (short form for asli palsu) Casio watch to be exact. I did not realized it until being told by my wife. Somehow at that point of time an idea came up from my head to become a reseller of this product. The strategy at that time was to have small margin but bis sales and next is all History……ha ha not yet la… yes at that particular time I’ve manage get a big number of sales but I’m not business tycoon yet (even now). Thinking of it, its not that easy even running a business of selling replicas watch. There is always a challenge. But one thing that is very very very important from my experience is customer support. At that time, i try to find a way to make my watch a bit different from others, so what did i do? I introduce a quality check and period of warranty
Probably other sellers have this as well, but for me it really came originally from my little head and it really works. What i did was I give all my product a 30 days money back warranty and at the same time I will check all my stocks when I received it from my supplier. I will do a complete functional test to all my watches before it can be released for sale. It was quite a tedious work since I’m doing it alone but it is worth it. The warranty period given really enhance my product values from other sellers and at the same time i can minimized product return from customer since I have check upfront any defect products.
I wish to continue more but I’m out of the mood now, so if God willing I will continue the story of my journey other time.

[WTF]
Baru-baru ni member aku ader citer yang nombor plat kete sekarang ni dah keluar WTF.Aku memang tak pernah follow pon nombor plat terbaru kereta sekarang. Selepas bincang-bincang, kitaorang pon agree yang mesti banyak orang yang nak dapatkan nombor plat ni for whatever reason lah. Nak jadikan cerita, dua tiga hari sebelum ni aku ada close encounter dengan kereta-ketreta yang bernombor plat bermula ngan WTF. Guess what…..100% driver yang aku jumpa tu memang WTF!!.
Yang satu ni bawak kete macam orang gila, kalau tak gila pon aku rase dah tak tahan nak terberak la tuh. Yang satu lagi ni plak, dia ingat jalan ni kaum kerabat dia yang punya. Kat tengah-tengah Jam boleh plak menyengkang kat tengah-tengah jalan. Macam-macam ada kat dunia ni.
Tapi aku tak salahkan plat WTF tulah dan aku yakin bukan semua orang kat malaysia yang ada plat WTF ni camtu(yang tak tu jangan marah aku lak). Aku rase dugaan aku je dapat jumpa kete WTF yang WTF. Tapi secara peribadi aku agak suka dengan nombor plat WTF ni aku pon takleh nak explain kenapa.
