Dearth of Power Sockets

October 21st, 2007

I’m sitting at McDonalds. It’s been nearly a year since Wireless@SG was introduced. I was lucky to find a power socket. Looks like life hasn’t changed much in terms of the availability of power sockets for the laptop toting population.

I last wrote about how cafes could attract more people by encouraging them to stay. For outlets like McDonalds which open for 24hours, the late hours can be quiet and one way to boost business is to bring in the laptop crowd. Even coin-operated power sockets would be welcome and turn this into a good business case for these companies.

Maybe somebody could start a community awareness programme to improve the lot of the laptop crowd?

This is a beautiful sunday. Had a great hearty breakfast as the new kopitiam in the mall right by my place. Then went for some fresh air at the Alexandra Park ‘countryside’. Feels so good!

Weekend Car Drivers Frustrate Me

October 20th, 2007

This is just a rant… I keep getting blocked by slow moving weekend car drivers. I really don’t understand why can’t they give way. They act like they have no experience driving and keep hogging the road.

This is a test post from my desktop blogging tool, BlogDesk.

If you see this in your feed reader, I’m changing my blog URL.

My new blog is now are www.jcurve.info. I’ll stop blogging at justinlee.name.

But you don’t have to do anything about switching your feed subscription because I’ve been using Feedburner which allows me to do the switch from my side.

This means that by continuing to subscribe to this feed, you can still receive notifications eventhough i’ve moved to a new blog URL.

Hello world!

October 17th, 2007

Hi everyone! Welcome to my new blog. I’m still trying to get things setup here but most of the plugins, analytics and other widgets have been put in place. Just need to get my categories running properly with a good set that will cover what I wanna write about in this blog. It can be so tedious to maintain your own blog with all these customizations required. Hopefully I don’t have to touch code on this blog again for some time :)
