OMG – Google giving me a Nexus One!

This is OMG, and a late OMG for me!

I did not check one of my email account until this afternoon, and only then do I realize out of 200 unread spam emails, there is 1 cool one!

Apparently txeet qualified. I hope that there is no dateline for responding to the email..

Interview from mypaper 《我报》

I had an interview from mypaper 《我报》 in an article on 18 Mar, 2010. They have interviewed me over the SG Blood app that I had developed one year ago.

I have always reminded myself what a friend once said:

You do not have to be a teacher to contribute to society. Everyone has his own ways.

Creating SG Blood is my way, using my skills as an iPhone developer.

More socially conscious apps on the front page.

Reader Digest giving me $390,060

RD Cheque

It's a scam, of course.

But it always amazed me how a reputable magazine can do such a thing. Ten years ago, my sister received the same thing, and I helped her to reply the mail just to see how things will go.

This time, I will return the envelope.

But if they ask me to pay for the Reader Digest subscription, I will refuse.
