DABL – PonG
I haven’t been blogging because I have been spending almost all my free time working on a Distributed Address Book List (DABL) which I called PonG. (Download) PonG is a tool which allows you and your friends to keep up-to-date (contact) information of each another. PonG package includes a PonG server and a PonG client. […]
My perspective of IPv6
A friend asked me what I thinks of IPv6 so I gave him a “short” answer. A modified version as below: There isn’t really much IPv6 applications driving it right now. The main advantage is still “more public IP addresses”, But to be fair, there is no contention in the community that IPv6 will come. […]

Paper on Social Software
I know there are tons of information, magazine articles written about Social Software but I couldn’t find any targetted at “bosses”. So when my boss asked me to explain Social Software, I thought “hey, why not do the paper in Wiki?”. Nothing beats using Social Software to do an article on Social Software. :-) So […]

Geoff Huston on ENUM
Geoff Hudston wrote an article for ISP Column on ENUM called “Lord of the Numbers“, one of the best introduction to ENUM I have seen so far. Incidently, Geoff said this in his article: Interestingly enough a close inspection of your local table of international dialing codes and a close inspection of the E.164 registry […]
Internet Apocalypso
Found an interesting article called Internet Apocalypso aka the ClueTrain Manifesto. I know I know, I am about four years late reading this (it is published online in 1999 and was the best seller in Business Week in 2000 and have been translated to a dozen of languages). But have things change over the last […]

Sites have been asked to pay up to $50,000 to ensure they are free […]
