The Complete Guide To Genius…

I stumble upon this website, GeniusIntelligence.com that claims they can teach you how to get a 180 IQ in 6 months! Well, 180 IQ is consider an ultimate genius but uh, no string attached?

The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need To Quickly and Easily Create, Develop and Achieve The Genius of Your Dreams With So Little ‘Work’
You’ll Almost Feel Guilty!

As seen in Science Daily, CNN and India Times.

Well, Einstein supposedly had an estimated IQ of about 160, and we all agree he was a genius not because he had a high IQ but because of his accomplishments.

Richard Feynman had an IQ of about 120, which is an IQ of your good enough smart guy. But by all measurements other than his IQ score he was a freakin genius.

Any thoughts?

Yup, no shit! I had some tough time getting myself an account from Sedo which I need to “apply” via email because I’m using a third party email like Gmail and stuff.

After like a week (yeah… they didn’t reply my email promptly) I finally got my account yesterday. I quickly get my account verified and activated and then added few of my unused domains and get those parked.

To my surprise, I was unable to login today. Then I thought, well maybe I’ve forgot my password. When I try to request for my password I got this “pleasant” message:

This account has been closed. Please contact our customer support team if you have any questions.

Well, why I so mad about them is they even didn’t let me know about my account closure. Anyway, I’ve sent an email to them. I’ll just wait and see.

And oh, I’ve also signed up a NameDrive.com account. Simple, fast and easy. I think most probably I’ll park all my domains there (after considering some feedbacks from domain parkers).

Update: I received an email from Sedo Support yesterday saying that my account was closed due to an error. They had reopen my account and so far, so good.

No shopping for me this time around but I’m going to do window shopping to keep track of the current price and offer of MacBook Pro, which is in my shopping list for the next PC Fair in November/December.

Hi there guys!

Finally, almost about 2 weeks in Europe, now I’m finally back in my home town, Penang.

I’m still suffering from jet lag and a bit tired due to a near one day flights and transit from Nuremberg Airport-Charles de Gulles Paris-Kuala Lumpur International Airport-Penang International Airport.

My two weeks in Europe…

Team COSMIC, MALAYSIA (From left: Matt, Jasy, KS, KoeKoe).

I had my first week in Paris, going through a unforgettable memory of Imagine Cup 2008. Although we didn’t go to the top, we had a great time there – having unlimited fun and mixing around with other competitors and the best part, exploring the city of Paris! There are too much to say, but I think I’ll need a week or so to say it all. Well, nvm.

My second week was in Nuremberg, Germany. We all paid a visit to KoeKoe’s sister and her husband living there. Nuremberg is another mesmerising city, and I personally prefer the “country” feel of the city compared to Paris. We had some shopping there and the place and buildings is just fantastic! I’ll definitely fly back to Nuremberg one day, someday.

Well, ok…I’m stopping here for now, my brain is still lagging.

Cheers!

I’ll be leaving my comfort zone today and heading to Paris for a week. Not on vacation but to compete in the Microsoft Imagine Cup 2008 Finals!

Me and my team COSMIC is representing our country Malaysia in the Software Design Invitational category. This will be a tough one!

I’m not going to talk about my team as well as what is our project here, but feel free to jump into Team Cosmic official blog and the official Team COSMIC profile to check out more on us!

Anyway, I’ll try to blog live from Paris and update you guys on the competition.

Wish me good luck!

The 2008 Olympic Games is drawing near, and you will never see any Olympic Games without a mascot. Beijing 2008 will have Fuwa which comprises of five cute characters – Beibei the Fish, Jingjing the Panda, Huanhuan the Olympic Flame, Yingying the Tibetan Antelope and Nini the Swallow.

This icon set features all these characters, the official mascots of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

Don’t miss out on this icon set, you will only get this once every four years.

Ok, the post title pretty much explained what I want.

I am currently working on a project to reduce the use of papers by substituting papers with a software that provides you the same functions as papers. Kindly take a few seconds off and vote in your opinion! Here is the poll:

Feel free to drop me your comments too!

Over the past 2 days, I’ve been working on my “new” BlogIsEverything.com. I’ve upgraded to Wordpress 2.5 and re-tweak almost all the plugins and made some layout changes (you might noticed changes at the sidebar, post meta (rating, etc) and some other parts.

The layout is now 100% “visible” on IE7 as well as Firefox 2.

Those are the positives…the negative however, I need to retag all my 702 posts! and also make some changes to the content of certain posts (broken content posts).

My spam guards are up and running, basically still with Akismet and reCAPTCHA and now I installed Deadbolt to prevent spam user registration using bot.

Everything should be up and running by end of next week.

Regards,

Matt
