I found this video quite inspiring. I feel that having the opportunity to visit so many countries and connecting with the people of each country is just so awesome. Maybe I’ll be able to do something similar. :) Or do something to give back to society.

Mozilla Firefox 3 To Be Launched on 17 June 2008

by Isaak Kwok on June 16, 2008

Download Day 2008

Really looking forward to the release of Mozilla Firefox 3 on 17 June 2008 (18 June in Singapore). Have been using the betas of Firefox 3 (the latest is Release Candidate 3) for the past couple of months and it has been a pleasure to use. The previous version had problems with high memory usage and frequent crashes. But all such problems have eliminated or reduced.

So, remember to click on the logo above and pledge that you’ll download Mozilla Firefox 3 on the launch day!

UPDATE: Had fun playing around with the new version of Firefox 3. Anyway, if you have downloaded, you can go print your own certificate for participating in the download.

Here’s mine:

WWDC Keynote Starting Soon

by Isaak Kwok on June 10, 2008

Steve Job’s keynote at the Apple Worldwide Developer Conference is going to be starting in another 5 minutes. Really looking forward to whatever is going to be announced. Hopefully, a 3G iPhone is one of them.

Am camping out on the following sites for live updates:
- MacRumors Live
- TechCrunch
- LiveCrunch

Hopefully, none of the servers crash during the keynote due to heavy loading. :)

UPDATE - 1:25am: Only thing confirmed so far is that the next version of OS X has been codenamed Snow Leopard.

UPDATE - 2.30am: .mac service has been renamed MobileMe. Good for me as I’ve just renewed my .mac service.

UPDATE - 2.33am: Steve Jobs just announced a 3G iPhone. And the 8GB 3G iPhone will be going for US$199 with the 16GB version will be going for US$299. You choose either white or black colours for the 16GB iPhone. The 3G iPhone will be available 11 July … but not too sure whether it’ll be launched in Singapore on the same day.

UPDATE - 3.00am: No confirmed dates for when the iPhone will be available in Singapore. But Australians will be able to buy one from 11 July.

Remembering My Mum 2008

by Isaak Kwok on May 28, 2008

Last year, I wrote quite a long post about my mum. But for this year, I’m going to keep it a little simple.

Mum, if you reading this, I still miss and love you. Life has never and will never be the same without you around. XOXOXO
