As a frequent traveler, I use VoIP regularly to call back to Malaysia to avoid high roaming charges. I used to use VoipStunt since it has a very good deal (120 days of free call to certain locations).
But I’ve decided to cancel it and give Skype a try instead, mainly because of VoipStunt’s relatively average [...]

With the widespread of Internet access and online monetary transaction (for example, online banking, online shopping etc.) has become increasingly common and important, security definitely is a no-joking matter. Nobody wants to put their hard-earned money in danger while committing online transaction, and the paranoid among Netizens is understandable.

Many people said Firefox is not as good as Opera and/or Maxthon because it has less functions; they claimed, goodies like mouse gesture and super drag-and-go should be included by default in Firefox, instead of relying third party developers to deliver them through the form of extension.

This guide is based on my previously written guide here, but I’ve updated it slightly since most people are using Windows Live Messenger now, instead of the good-ol-MSN-Messenger.

How about using a web browser that was created by a hacking group and uses technology backed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (a digital rights group) to surf the web anonyously for those paranoids out there sound? We’ll the author, casting the conditioning built-in warnings in respect to using applications created by hackers, did just that for the [...]

I’m a new convert to Microsoft’s new blog authoring tool - Windows Live Writer beta. The mission as quoted from their site:
Our goal in creating Writer is to help make blogging more powerful, intuitive, and fun for everyone.
Live Writer is built on the .net platform and while geared for their Web2.0 Live [...]

This is an open source web browser that makes you appear as if you’re working, even though you’re surfing the net, to the the casual observer. It’s basically a browser based on Gecko HTML renderer used by Mozilla Firefox that embeds itself inside a frame of the currently focused window of any program. To add [...]

After heaping praises on Bloglines in my previous post on RSS feeds, it seems to have gone through quite a fair bit of downtime which wasn’t particularly pleasing. :( Feeling disgruntled, I started researching (again) on the latest breed of web based and desktop based RSS (feed) readers currently available to find a worthy replacement [...]
