mrbrown and me was discussing what we can do with twitter last week. We thought it would be cool to have a shoutbox on seewhatshow linked to twitter so anyone can instantly feedback how good or bad the show they are watching via their mobile phone. I went to do some research and find a […]

My VoIP Phone number via Pfingo
After working for almost 2 years on IP Telephony Framework for Singapore, and another year waiting for companies to put the new 3 series numbers into operation (you can imaging how tough to get interconnection done :-), I finally got my own 3 series VoIP phone number :-) +65-31050266 is the working VoIP number that […]
New Media Policy for Singapore
Hosted by Dr. Lee Boon Yang, the appreciation lunch today marks the conclusion of the National Internet Advisory Committee and Community Advisory Committee under MDA.

MyIX

Thanks for having us :-) I have a lot of concerns over the setup but since I already relay my comments to friends involved in the project, I will not repeat them here. Regardless, MyIX is […]
Afterthoughts of APRICOT 2007
I didnt stay for the whole APRICOT 2007 this time as I am needed back in Singapore. On the other hand, the most useful meetings I get out of APRICOT are the side meetings that is usually held just before APRICOT 2007. Anyway, here are some notes from APRICOT 2007. 1. I was surprised to […]
Skype asks FCC to open up cellular networks
This petition by Skype is one of the most significant milestone for the VoIP, or mobile application, industry. It will decide if the wall-garden cellular network will stay or go. Skype yesterday petitioned the FCC to lay the smack down on wireless phone carriers who “limit subscribers’ right to run software communications applications of their […]
