LE SIGH.


I can’t believe life without a camera can be so very dull and beh syiok! FYI mine got stolen from my bicycle basket.

SUPER TAMADE!

Much like you are missing the cup of coffee you always drink in the morning.

For that ding dong who stole my camera, I bet you won’t be able to take good photos for the rest of your life! Hahah, so funny to the thought of that.

I still have not made up my mind on what brand of camera I should buy. It’s frustrating because there are 1000 brands out there with respective strengths and weaknesses and when you are on limited budget, all brands seem like the same to you and none is better then another.

Unless you fork out RM3k to buy a bloody DSLR lah!


Just when I thought I have saved enough money to purchase a PDA phone, it now needs to be allocated for a new camera instead.

Just now as I cycled pass Westlake, I saw a rainbow for the first time in half a year, sitting beautifully in front of the range of Kampar mountains. It was dusk, with weak sunlight shimmering through the dark, heavy clouds (it was about to rain).

And from the place I was cycling, a phenomenal wreck of white seabirds were seen happily hovering across the sky in a circular motion, for repeated times! Underneath the seabirds was the Westlake, which reflected a fiery orange glow of the evening sun.

And it made me think: maybe this is a place where I want to settle down, have a family, and live happily after ever.

HAHHAHAHAHHA!

And I told myself if I didn’t stop hallucinating, I would end up in Tanjung Rambutan soon!

But that is not the point. The main point is that because of that ding dong who stole my camera, I had missed the greatest chance to capture a phenomenon you don’t get to see everyday.

Sucks to the max!

Is Alexa Ranking Still Relevant in 2009?

increase_alexa_ranking.pngWhen I posted about site having successfully cracked into Alexa’s Top 100,000 Ranking, some skeptic commentator asked how it can help me to make money online since it is losing its relevance.

When I saw that question, it made me think for a while. Yes, he has his point: that Alexa is not as relevant as it was before as many have challenged its ranking accuracy and credibility using the Alexa Toolbar.

Although Alexa has later announced a complete redesign and new metrics, it is still getting a bad rap on the issue.

Whatever it is, Alexa is still useful to me due to the following reasons:

Although it would be superficial to compare two sites and jump to conclusions by saying which site is more popular, you can figure out if a site has visitors or not.

Big companies might not give a damn about Alexa ranking, but many small advertisers still take into account Alexa stats, among others. This is especially relevant to this site as it is still at the growing stage of the product life cycle (see graph below) and is most relevant to such small advertisers.

If you get a better Alexa ranking, the chances are that you might get more clients for advertising. Besides, if you combine Alexa stats with Pagerank (PR), number of backlinks and indexed pages, as well as Search Engine Results Page (SERP) performance, you can fathom out how a site fares.

Simply put, Alexa ranking is a symbolic reflection of where your site is currently. To me it doesn’t improve my traffic just because I have cracked into the top 100,000, but it is an indication of my improvement and success.

Most importantly, it makes me feel good about the effort I have poured into building this site.


Alexa might not be the most important and accurate tool, but it is certainly useful, at least to me.
