tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38371358591733130682011-11-28T08:12:50.524+08:00<p> Shoot me if I say that I'm a regular blogger. :) No really, this blog was set up by me to capture some of the interesting moments, thoughts and muses in or from my work with Google, as well as some that happen in my life outside-of-work. I'm a blogger-wannabe; wanting to write so much, with the passion of a blogger virtuoso and with the voracity of a hungry tiger feasting on his/her prey. Yet, I may not make the mark. Nevertheless, why not give it a go?Hansonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04430588167676889685noreply@blogger.comBlogger91100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3837135859173313068.post-65191971087597100852007-05-31T21:22:00.000+08:002008-12-10T05:43:19.437+08:00

It's been some time since I last posted anything up. Work has been hectic and so on, I've been busy meeting people from all sorts of backgrounds, hence exciting and interesting but still, very busy ya! Anyhow, I hope you guys have been well these days.I wanted to mention; I will be speaking for Google in Ipoh, 5th June, next week, so if any of you are around the area, please do drop by if you

I've been telling myself that I really need to put more into this blog, as I do have a lot of fun with it everytime I post something, it's just that it does take some time to get down and post something solid, y' know.Anyway, I've decided to take a part of this coming weekend to "pimp my blog". Heh - for those of you who don't know the term, it means "dressing up" or decorating it ala MTV's

I conducted a Google seminar last week Thursday (12th April) at the MIRC (MCA ICT Resource Centre) in Wisma MCA and approximately 100+ people turned up! I had a lot of fun and I hope the participants did too.Essentially, the topic of the talk was about how SME's and even non-SME's should consider using more online tools and services to enable their businesses to run more productively, efficiently

Hi everyone,Sorry for not blogging for a few days now; this week has been absolutely busy on several fronts! Plus I've been feeling a bit fat these days so I've been hitting the gym... I remember a time when I used to think people that go to the gym have no life (c'mon people, do an outdoor sport, or something which has an "objective", like tennis, basketball, golf or something....) but I guess

Among the many reasons why I started blogging, one of them is because of my colleague Aileen Apolo. Like me, she works for Google as well in a similar capacity - the only difference is that she is based in the Philippines. Reading her blog just made me want to blog as well and I also think it's a great way to reach out to people, overcoming physical and time boundaries.She writes a pretty active

Many people have asked me about the most popular Google-search queries in Malaysia, not knowing that Google actually publishes this on the open-Internet.Google Zeitgeist is a published list that highlights the fastest growing seach terms that users search for. Google publishes this for the US as well as many other countries where Google has a local-domain presence and has local expertise to

Hey, for those of you who live in the ASEAN region - if you've wanted to join a company like Google but never applied because you didn't fancy leaving your gf/bf/wife/husband/dog to go to the US, or they didn't feel like relocating, well you can now apply to join Google in Singapore!(ok, you may still have to leave your gf/bf/wife/husband/dog/goat to go to Sg if you're coming from a neighbouring

Hi everyone. First time posting a blog item for me! It's quite un-nerving really but I guess it gets better with time. I mean, people like Jeff Ooi, Kenny Sia and even 18-year old blog-o-genius Su Ann aka Pink Pau, they blog like they're breathing or something. Or in between waiting for the commercial break to be over, they blog an entry...having said that that though, it's actually been
