I finally migrated to Drupal 4 Blogger today. It is about time that I do this myself and eat my own dog food. Hopefully this would help to dig out the bugs but so far, so good! But I dont promise this to be perfect so please report any problem and bear with it for […]

Driving in US
Just arrived in SFO after nearly 20hours of flight *phew* It been over a year since I come to US and I really missed here, especially the Bay Area. For one, US is the one of the few countries I can pick up a rental car and drive around. I don’t do that in Europe […]
Uncommon Sense
Uncommon Sense by Peter Cochrane (former CTO of BT) Pick this up in the Singapore Airport on my way to SFO. I flip through it briefly and really like what I saw!
Flying to Bay Area
I am packing my stuff and flying to Bay Area in a few hours time. I will be attending Supernova 2004 and also Apple World Wide Developer Conference 2004 and meeting some pretty cool people! Oh, please sign up for pre-conference dinner which is open to anyone whether you’re going to attend Supernova or not. […]
CommunicAsia 2004 and IP Phones
CommunicAsia Exhibition is huge this year! Between CommunicAsia and BroadcastAsia, they took up the whole Singapore Expo! (Singapore Expo can normally house 2-8 concurrent large-scale exhibitions) I spend an afternoon just walking through the booths briefly, stopping only to talk to IP Telephony Service Providers (ITSP) and IP Phone manufacturers. The usual suspect are there […]

An integrated IT platform that manages the flow of trade-related information is set to make Singapore more competitive as a world class port and logistics hub. This platform will enable exchange of information between shippers, […]
IX 2004
Okay, it is confirmed: Dave Farber is unable to make it to Singapore :-( I spend the whole morning cancelling the meetings for Dave and looking for a replacement speaker for CommunicAsia 2004. Luckily, Dr. Lawrence Wong agreed to do so on short notice. (Thanks Lawrence! I owe you one! :-) So I missed the […]
MT to Drupal Migration Tool
I just hack up an alternate method to migrate from MT to drupal. Download mt2drupal.tar.gz. This is a perl script written as an MT-plugin, utilizing on MT libraries to export the data directly into Drupal database (limitation: only for MySQL for now). So unlike http://drupal.org/node/view/6141, you do not need to generate large intermediate php files […]
Exciting weeks to come…
The next few weeks would be pretty hectic and exciting for me. We invited Dave Farber1 to Singapore for CommunicAsia 2004. Yeah! The week after, I will be flying to the Bay Area on 21st to attend Supernova 2004. I have been looking forward to Supernova and meeting all the cool people. I will be […]
Hacking codes is an Art
A couple of days ago, an old friend William sent me an IM saying he is “surprised to see me coding again” (refering to Drupal for Bloggers). I suppose the real question in his (and many others) mind is “Why are you still coding!?”. I suppose “programmer” is no longer as prestigious a title as […]
