Although the RSS feeds are getting a lot popular nowadays but still there are a lot of people don’t really know what RSS feeds are.

How to Stop Comments Spams~


Is your blog being attacked by comment spammers? If you are running a Wordpress blog, that is quite normal. You will get more spams if your blog is popular. There are a lot of ways out there to stop these comments spammers such as installing Akismet and Spam Karma plugins. But seriously, does these plugins really work? Some people might say yes but I don’t think so. What these plugins really do is filtering the spam comments from appearing in your comments. Read my words, “filtering” not “preventing”. In order to prevent your blog from being attacked by these bot spammers, you need to do something.

The Procastinator’s Clock~


What a procastinator would usually do to avoid being late is setting their clock 15 minutes ahead just to trick themselves. But this trick usually fails as most of them, like myself, will keep reminding themselves that the clock is actually 15 minutes ahead and end up being even later. So David Seah came up with a procastinator’s clock that is specially made for procastinators.

My Custom Header~


I was browsing through some Wordpress themes with wonderful headers. That gave me an idea, why don’t I just make a custom header myself? And so, I started Google-ing on this topic and stomp into Paul’s blog on how to make a blog header graphic. The tutorial was great and I was managed to make my custom header although I’m actually using Macromedia Fireworks to make it. This is what I made…

Final Year Project - Half Done?


This is my final semester of studying in UTM and of course I need to finish up my final year project in order to graduate. My project is titled “Embedded Ethernet” and I have to gather up all my hardware on my own. I had spent quite some time going to and back from Johor Bahru just to get my hardwares. The ATMEL microcontroller is very rare and needed to order from some suppliers. Luckily the boss of the electronic shop in JB was kindly helpful to help me order it.
