Are you still using IE for browsing the internet? Maybe its time to re-consider switching to Forefox 2.0, even as a standby browser in case your IE is playing up on you.

The latest Mozilla browser is so configurable you can tweak a lot of different settings to suit your needs.

You say you don’t like the new way to close tabs? Change them. You want Firefox to stop hogging your RAM? Reduce it. You want to save sessions when Firefox crashes? Save them.

Today is another good day from me. Actually it began yesterday…I received an email from a ProBlogger…Colbert Low. He informed me of a vacancy for a ProBlogger for a new startup. I got very interested instantly for one reason…its a new startup….I have a chance of being one of the pioneers. So I did forward two sample postings that is required by the owner of the startup and waited for a day. Today I got the email reply from her…and this is an excerpt from her email…

I have two hard disks in my PC. One is Maxtor 40GB hard disk while the other one is an older Quantum 20GB hard disk. Both of them had just been re-formatted, again, due to..what else….if not virus. Damn virus…never fails to make me waste considerable amount of times just hunting for them.

I will be spending my weekend re-installing and configuring everything on my PC. The tasks are not particularly hard for me but the sheer amount of time it takes to get it done is just unbelievable. I hope everything will be back to normal by Monday.

Have you ever had to reinstall your system for whatever reason?

I was at University Technology Petronas (UTP) yesterday as an External Examiner for Final Year IT Project. That was my third involvement as an External Examiner for UTP. I have also been involved in Adjunct Lecturer program at UTP, giving lectures to IT students on specialized topic
of IT Project Management.

Yesterday’s session was very interesting. This semester’s projects evolved around Mobile commerce (M-commerce). I saw a lot of M-commerce projects by the final year students. Some of them had good potential to be commercialized.

The one I was really impressed with is a Mobile Restaurant System by Nguyen Kong Minh. His project is simply impressive. The system allows you to order your foods via your mobile phone or PDA. The part that I like most is the fact that Nguyen didn’t just use mobile phone emulator like other students. His project deliverable was shown on real PDA. And it worked flawlessly for the scopes identified in his project. It even integrates to a real SMS notification system.

Not only he impressed me with his project works. His test menu on the mobile system was also…needless to say…very mouth watering…bear in mind that we are in the fasting month of Ramadhan..he..he..he.

Other projects that deserve a mention here also include Grade Trekker System by Jamie Tan and Mobile Bank’s Turn Number Reservation System by Khairil Anuar Abdullah.

Congratulation to Nguyen and other students for their outstanding works. And many thanks to University Technology Petronas for inviting me as part of the External Examiners team this semester.
