Sashimi Feast in Photos

October 26, 2008

In an effort to get to know Singapore’s blogosphere, I went to a ping.sg (singaporean blogger community) dinner at a ritzy izakaya-style Japanese restaurant called En (えん).

1. @Reply with Comment Preview Plugin
Since I wanted to keep this design clean, I have reluctantly removed Wordpress Thread Comments and WP Paged Comments. It is now replaced with a Twitter-esque comment…



Review: LG Viewty KU990R

October 3, 2008

Update (November 2008)
It looks like I have an older firmware. LG has yet to allow people to upgrade their firmware via their website. I will update this post whenever I make my way down to the LG Service Centre at Vivo City.
So, I got another cellphone for work purposes. And this was one of the…
