Not on hiatus, butt’s just too heavy
Like the title says, I’m not on hiatus. I’ve been around, updating other channels except this one.
Dunno why every time I want to login here, my butt starts feeling heavy. As heavy as those cheap locally made rims. Very susah to move.
I think part of the reason for my butt’s heaviness is that I’m normally in a blogging mood when I’m not online. So I type out my post using a word editor or notepad, sometimes even using dreamweaver. Most often, I type it out as a note on my phone (only do this if you have a qwerty keypad). I’ve been doing a lot of this lately. Especially when I’m in idle mode, waiting for someone or sitting at a cafe somewhere without my lappie. Beats staring at the world pass by.
I would normally sync those post on my phone to my laptop and post it up here which was a little bit of a hassle bcoz I had to turn on the laptop, go she-she, plug in my sync cable, plug in my phone, dig my nose, wait for the software to sync, etc. Butt getting heavy.
Then I stumbled upon a site called posterous which allowed postings via email. All I have to do is type out a post and send it to their email. I could easily do it from my mobile. The post would automatically get published on my posterous site. And the best thing about posterous is that they automatically handle photos or videos that are included as attachments. Didn’t even have to lift up my butt. I found out later that wordpress has email posting as well but enough blogs la. Want to die meh post here post there.
Besides with social media and micro-blogging at it’s peak, I read that traditional way of blogging will soon fade away. Which explains why blogspot is tying up with facebook. I think soon you could have a blogspot tab on your fb page. Nowadays everyone is on facebook. The mother of my children & her relatives. Almost every client I meet. Even some of my heng tais. The other day one of them asked me if I was on fb and I lied. He asked me why so ‘char’ wan and asked me to faster go register. As if I needed another fella to poke me. :P
But a lot of bloggers who’ve stopped blogging are also blogging in fb. My fav has to be KopiSoh’s notes.
Then there’s twitter. I created an account some time ago but found it to be such a hassle to have to login to tell people where you are or what you’re doing, that I lost the password. Then kat mentioned something about it and I remembered my password which was bungabungaberguguranditepipantaicintaberahi.
How could I have forgotten that password!
And twitter now even have email updates. Just send an email and it’s posted. Me likey. Butt no heavy.
What is the point of this post anyway? Butt no heavy? No more frequent updates on this blog?
Any other online sites that you use?
i found out there’s tumblr… do you tumblr? me, i only drink from the tumbler :p and there’s plurk..
so blogspot marry fb ah? what do we get?
Reply : I registered for tumblr but it’s not much different from whats out there. So me no tumblr, except water tumblr.

Today I’m damn tulan. Bought book for dotter. Wifey calls and scolds me. Why cannot buy book for dotter? The end. Thank you.

If you ever stop blogging, I’ll go to Kuantan and strangle you.

So many channels can be inter-mixed now. You can even log into twitter to comment in posterous. Like soap opera liddat - A sleep with B, B has relationship with C. A used to sleep with C. B turns out to be the half-sister of D, who is married to A’s mother E. E is currently having an affair with C.
p/s: watching Gem of Life now. Sunny is so yau yeng yau foon. Ho kwai sei cool ah!! Tall, dark and hamsem.. :D
Reply : Hah? Twitter can comment on posterous? Can wan meh?
Now only watching gem of life ah? U know Sunny dies in the end rite?
