National Library Board lookup bookmarlet

You come across a book on Amazon (or any other online book stores as long as they have this ISDN in the URL) and with this, you can directly check the book’s availability and status in the library. This is definitely very useful if you’re an avid reader and you’re a miser. )

Go check it out. Every Little Wonder also has this NLB-Lookup-For-Dummies, a step-by-step instruction to start using this bookmarklet.

More about Click.sg

When I first started this site, I already knew the existence of Tomorrow.sg, the Bulletin of Singapore Bloggers (With all the traffic sent by Mr Brown, Mr Miyagi and the likes, who doesn’t?).

So this is not exactly an attempt at “setting up my own Tomorrow.sg” (scroll down to see the 4th comment) as Mr James Seng is likely to suggest at every opportunity though he doesn’t take such an approach these days. ;)

On the contrary, I feel that both sites are actually pretty different, of course besides the similar .sg domain name.

Tomorrow.sg takes a more SPH style. Like the tabloids with a mini forum; revelation of sex, racist blogs. Where anyone submits an article they deem worthy of sharing, then the editors in a most democratic manner decides whether the article should be published. These 13 supposedly most influential bloggers hold the helm of Tomorrow.sg, the website where our mainstream media looks to for the juicy stuff.

Which all in all is fine and dandy and a very great idea which I kick myself of not thinking of earlier.

I’m especially happy that there is such a site, for example, right after the Bloggers.SG ended, the editors posted an article briefly on the event and a flurry of trackbacks followed, tons of photos and recounts from various individual. I’m sure everyone who attended the event or couldn’t make it would have loved to know more what exactly happened at the event. All that was needed is a place to collect all the information and Tomorrow.sg provided such a need.

Where Click.sg (hopefully) serve as a more personal output. Less objective. More opinions. Of course, relating to Singapore and most important of all, be responsible. More of a Blogging.la approach and less of Screnshots, not that there’s anything wrong with Jeff Ooi’s blog, I think it’s important that he takes a more serious stance on the various issues, after all somebody got to do it.

I actually wasn’t expect any one signing up, but we got a couple. And one of them just added his virgin post, the top five reasons why he like riding rather than driving. I especially agree with point number 3. Go read, it’s pretty interesting.

And to all the new members, I’ve promoted all of you to Level 1 so if you feel like it, write something, anything about Singapore and it’ll be saved as a draft and I’ll probably give it a look through for spelling mistakes and it will be published. D

Thanks and have fun.

SingTel to launch Mandarin drama series for 3G subscribers

Singapore Telecom is launching its first Mandarin drama serial produced for its 3G mobile phone subscribers in Singapore.

Called “The Prince Who Lost His Memory”, the 10-part love story has a cast of up and coming young Taiwanese artistes.

Will you want to watch your TV shows on the go? I’m not really sure, the biggest perk of watching television for me is the chance to just sit there and do nothing but watch.
