The More You Know – NBC Message To All

Taking over this blog after my best friend passed away, is not an easy choice to make. I have received quite a bit of mixed reactions. Personally, I think it is the right thing to do. I am not out to take over his place in the cyberspace, all I wanted to do is to share information, like I have always done when he was still around. In fact Andrew Peters profile will always be in this blog, in honour of the guy that started it all. This will always be his blog and I am just continuing what he had started.

I’m doing things a little differently nowadays, instead of passing on articles to him to post, I am actually doing the writing and the posting.

For this post, in memory of someone close to me, and coincidentally, NBC has released a newly revised campaign named “The More You Know“. It website of friendly reminder to look after yourselves. Please visit it and think about how it can affect you and your loved ones.

FREE wiki’s from Wetpaint.com – itsReal

Some time earlier this year I found wetpaint.com, since then i have 3 wetpaint wiki’s and am a member of at least 5 others…read what TIME has to say about Wetpaint and how they are ranked in Times TOP 50 Websites.

…HypoCol Community wiki..

TIME Awards Wetpaint Top 50 Websites Award 

Sure, your pals can post comments about your blog, YouTube videos and Flickr photos, but if you want a true collaborative exchange, consider creating a wiki—a site where anyone can add and edit any of the site’s content. Wetpaint, a Seattle startup, makes it super easy for non-techie people to create a wiki or contribute to one. Even companies are using it: Food & Wine magazine has a Wetpaint wiki; CBS started one for CSI fans and T-Mobile created one for the Sidekick.

The process for adding text, Web links, photos and video to a Wetpaint wiki is highly intuitive, but there are video tutorials just in case. If you’re feeling protective or want a little more control, Wetpaint lets you set different levels of access for different users. You can also restrict access altogether to only those you’ve specifically invited, though anybody will still be able to visit the site. As your wiki evolves and grows, there are tools that track the changes in detail, so you can see who did what and when—and then call them on it before changing it back.

Are you MANLY Enough to DETOX ?

Author: Ang Ah Sin – General Manager – Biolife Marketing

Body detoxification is for men too !

Every person needs to be enlightened in different aspect and at different stage of their lives.

Having spent many years in detoxifying computers and preaching about anti-virus / Trojans / spyware / ransomware / phishing, anti-spam and what-have-you in the IT content security world, I stepped into the “different” yet the “same” industry. Different in the sense of human beings vs computers but yet the same as it is about health. Until 2 months ago, it had never occurred to me that it is not just about another business but about the real need to detoxify our body.

Like most if not all “unenlightened” men, the sheer mention of “detox” or “detoxification” will raise my eyebrows followed by a frown and ended with a quick switch of subject to something else. The basic reason is that this ritual or obsession is for the female population. It is all about skin beauty that the “rugged” men do not have to be concerned about.

As marketing professional which loves Alvin Toffler’s quotation that “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn”, I set on “unlearning” the previous (IT) products and immediately dive into learning the new product which is the Good Image Tea, which is formulated, manufactured and distributed by our company and group’s herbal manufacturing plant.

It is through the course of understanding the overall Good Image Tea, the characteristics and benefits of each of the ingredients such as green tea, licorice, peppermint and ginseng; as well as talking and learning from people in the same industry, customers and associates that I “relearn” that detoxification is for men too, especially those that are entering the middle age and beyond.

Detoxification is not about maintaining skin beauty, it is about health maintenance.

Second Life: A Place to Make Lives – itsReal

Imagine…….. being suddenly able to walk, to communicate, to work and to socialize, not only locally but globally. That is how life has become for a new friend of mine through the Reality of Second Life.

Below is Niels first English article, the full entry can be found at the link below
There is more than just the ability to walk

Written by Niels Schuddeboom
Monday, 02 April 2007

Technology has changed my life and it still does. Without my computer, I wouldn’t have been able to write or work. The machine gives me the ability to communicate and let my creative juices flow. It is making it possible to function on the same level as others and to get equally rewarded for it.

Since mid-2006 I’m walking around in the virtual world of Second Life. Literally being able to walk is a very strange experience for someone using a wheelchair in real life for more than 20 years now. Though I won’t let SL jeopardize my real-life social life, I really have to say it is beneficial to walk. In real life, many people tend to think that I’m mentally retarded, in second life I can’t be judged by my wheels, as long as I don’t use a wheelchair. As soon as I do, mechanisms of social interaction work exactly the same.

Before I will explain what I find most interesting about Second Life, I would like to take the opportunity to react to some of the criticism of the past months, which is in my opinion mainly based on ignorance. Many people say Second Life is a dull and slow experience, with bad graphics and such. They call it an unhealthy hype. Well, in some ways, they are right. But every hype comes with unhealthy side effects and we all tend to forget that the system is in its infancy just like the Internet of today once was. There once was a time without images and video-sharing services, and there once was a time that we all called people using the Web ‘nerds without social habits’. M

My very GOOD mate, a veteran of IT Switches to Health Tea – itSreal

Ang Ah Sin, a veteran in I.T. for over 20 years joins BioLife Marketing, a local SME specialising in health products

BioLife Marketing, the sole distributor of the Good Image Tea™ today announced that Mr. Ang Ah Sin, a local I.T. professional of more than 20 years has joined the SME as one of its partners as well as its General Manager.

“The call into entrepreneurship was never so strong until recently. With the invitation by 2 good and trusted friends reinforced with the support from my family and other friends, I decided to take the plunge into this different but exciting industry,” said Ang.

Ang’s experience spanned across from technical support to sales and marketing; and spent more than 5 years with a key system integrator in the ’80s, more than 10 years with major distributors such as Tech Pacific in the ’90s and until recently with major manufacturers such as Trend Micro Inc. He was highly sought by the media for his views on Infocomm Security.

Ang holds a Bachelor of Science (Hons) degree in Business and Management Studies (Marketing).

As its General Manager, Ang will be handling the day to day business, develop and execute strategic growth plans. This will include increasing the product range under the Good Image Tea™ brand, create new product lines and recruit related agencies; developing the channel in Singapore as well as internationally.

“Any new venture will face plenty of uncertainties and challenges. I am confident because the consumers around the world are getting more and more health conscious; tea consumption in the world was reported to rank second only to water consumption; and one of the greatest competitive advantages of BioLife Marketing is that we have an associated GMP-certified manufacturing plant in Malaysia. It has been manufacturing health products for other brands in the region for more than 10 years now and is also manufacturing for our own brand, Good Image Tea™,” said Ang.

“Good Image Tea™ was uniquely formulated by Dr. Aoyama Kanahiro from the University of Tokyo and Professor of ShengYang Medicine University of China. The detoxification green tea which also eliminates excessive fats in the body was launched in Malaysia five years ago and three years ago in Singapore. Our success indicated that we are on the right track in this industry and Ang will bring to the group a whole new perspective and drive the growth,” said Mr. Lai Liew Min, Managing Director of Comfort Herbal Manufacturing Sdn Bdn
