Raising the dead

Another attempt to bring this place back. So here are few updates that I feel are worth mentioning in no particular order.

1. I have changed my Job and will be staying a little bit longer in Singapore. I will be doing the same thing with some more responsibilities perhaps.

2. I have fallen for microblogging – http://www.twitter.com/swengeorge. However,  I will *try* not to delete this blog and to post more. (You have heard this one before.)

3. I am now the proud owner of a PS3. And I have played and finished these games so far : Metal Gear Solid 4, Half life 2 Episode 2, Portal, Killzone 2. What next ? InFamous most probably.

4. I have upgraded to Ubuntu 9.04 and must say the boot up speed amazes me, especially if you are using the Ext4 File System.

5. I lost all my songs because I backed up onto a FAT32 drive. The software in question sBackup writes a zip file to the back up device with incremental updates. If the zip file size exceeds 4GB (which it surely will do if you have a lot of stuff), nothing else will be backed up – but no error message is displayed. The problem? FAT32 File System supports files to a max size of 4GB. My fault, I knew it but somehow didn’t relate it.

6. I have developed a taste for Macallan and Ginger Ale. Love it.

7. I finally feel the new iPhone 3G S is worth buying. At least it has a complete feature set.

    Woah! We seem to be moving towards the same thing bro. I’ve moved from Glenfiddich to Macallan too. Its funny because we never told each other this.

    @Ubuntu 9.04 upgrade – Vista kicks Ubuntu’s ass!

    @Fat32 blunder – been there. done that.

      hmm similiar tastes I guess. Vista doesn’t kick anyones ass. It is a hardware hogging bloated annoying OS – and you know it

    Bitches, I still like my Chivas and the occasional Blue Label.

    Good to have you back.

    [Which I have written how many times already? ;) ]

    Unfortunately, I suck at Twitter so I really depend on this blog…

    @kalafudra
    Yup I am back again. How can someone suck at twitter. My guess is that you require more than 140 chars to express yourself. :)

    I cannot believe that twitter so popular. It seemed so random and cluttered
