VOTE EARTH!
Budeen.com hereby expresses its support towards VOTE EARTH! campaign which will be held exactly 1 week from now… 
For those who haven’t heard this, it’s the world’s first global election between Earth and Global Warming. We could all take part by simply switching on/off our lights for 1 hour on March 28, 2009.
“Switching off your lights is a VOTE FOR EARH, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. That simple!”
The campaign targeted 1 billion votes across the globe, and the results will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009. This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It’s the chance for us to make our voice heard.
What can you do?
These are a few simple things that we all can do to show our support:
- Turn off the lights in our own homes for 1 hour on 28 March 2009, 8.30pm until 9.30pm
- Spread the word to our families and friends. (Write a blog, email a friend or twitter VOTE EARTH)
- Signing-up at the Earth Hour website: http://earthhour.org.my/
Let us together make a difference. Show the world Malaysians are United!
Another Dilemma..
Coincidently, I got to attend a wedding invitation on 28 MAC 2009, 8.30pm. Errr… What should I do?
‘Resolving Host’ Problem
Today is Friday, supposed to be a day full of blessing. Well, not for me. Not quite…
I’ve been bothered with this tiny little problem for quite sometimes. Initially it happens once in a while, but lately becomes more and more often. Today it hit me to the max. I can’t access my own blog!!
Let me ask you this: How would you feel if you can’t access your blog for 1 hour? Still OK? How about 2 hours? Blood boiling? Let’s make it half a day.. can you still be calm? Yes you can.. coz you are an angel from the seventh heaven. I’m not, but I hope I can still contain myself from doing anything stupid…
Before I forgot, I must thank ~life4hire~ for his kind effort & willingness to help me out on this. We had a long discussion last nite, lasted until 1.30am. I appreciate everything he taught me. Unfortunately, the problem still occur..
These were what I got when i entered budeen.com in my browser between 2.30pm until 5pm today:
- In Chrome “Oops! The link appears broken.” & ”DNS Error. Cannot find server“
- In Firefox “Address not found. Firefox can’t find the server at www.budeen.com.
I’ve tried using openDNS as adviced by ~life4hire~ but to no avail. (208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220). When I nslookup at C prompt, this was what I get:
I’m also puzzled why can’t i suddenly upload image file?
Hey, what the hell is happening here!?? *^%^$*@^$
Great!! This complete a ‘perfect’ day for me..
Will this be published?? Presto!!!
Rare Road Runners…
I won’t write much. Just want to share 2 pictures i snapped recently.. 
(1) Modern version of The Ent.. remember Treebeard from LOTR?
(2) A car wander around without registration number. In a city… brave huh? 
How about you? Any rare scene you’ve come across on the street?
iPhone 3G in Malaysia? YES!! It’s Official Now..
Malaysians are waiting for this moment to happen. 
The Official Launching event will be held at KL Convention Centre on the 20th-22nd March 2009. It’s 1.5 weeks from now…
I go through the pricing at maxis website. It’s not attractive at all in my opinion. To get it really cheap (around RM260 for iPhone 3G 16GB) you must serve 24 months contract at RM375 per month. That’s a staggering RM9,000 in total!!
I don’t know whether it will be carrier lock or not (most probably will). To me, the better option is to get factory unlock set from Singapore (easiest of all countries) and subscribe 3G data plan with the carrier of your choice (i mean Celcom here).. Here’s why:
1. Factory unlock – you can use with ANY SIM in the world
2. Take Celcom 3G data plan for greater coverage (as per MCMC report) and better price (unlimited only RM50/month)
…It’s waaaay more economical!!
Anyhow it’s just my opinion. Read the T&C. I’m sure there’s loophole like any other telcos before. Good luck!!
